Global Trend...

This webpage lists quotes from prominent present-day scientists (including nobel-prize winners) who increasingly realise that we've been "barking up the wrong tree" - Evolution is a theory disproved!

Evening Walk in the Neighbourhood IV

A big house in our neighbouring suburb. This area is full of indulgent looking houses haha.

Evening Walk in the Neighbourhood III



t
As usual, sounding swah kooh, the plants here continue to interest me haha. The lemons shown here are about 3x the volume of those we find in NTUC. Not sure about the taste though.

Evening Walk in the Neighbourhood II

A typical house in this suburban neighbourhood looks like this. Always, there'll be a huge garage and some bay windows. Few houses have walls surrounding the property or fencing (even for very large houses). Most homes have a collection of flowering plants right in front (just like MP's home in Florida).

Evening Walk in the Neighbourhood I

Most dogs and cats are kept indoors here. It's harder to see a cat than a dog since dogs need to be walked.

Happy National Day!

Guess what i saw hanging outside the international students' office? Haha...funny thing is, i only saw it when my Japanese friend asked me: "What flag is this?"

Being away makes you think of not just the shortcomings but also the strenghths of Singapore. Especially family and food hee.

More Than Bits of Bones and Bumps

This is the dog i now share with another 3 team-mates. It's a retired racing greyhound and well, it was euthanised. People were all very professional and i didn't see anyone abusing their dogs in anyway. This is the only pic i will post. BTW, my team-mates call her Melissa. Ha ha

Alien Plants

This one looks reeeeally weird. Probably the flowers of the plant. Like kangaroos, koalas and wombats, many plants in Australia can't be found naturally-occuring in other parts of the world.

Bit of Bones and Bumps



So the plot thickens and i now find myself at the anatomy museum figuring out which bump fits into which depression haha.

What Your Knees Can Tell You...

I came across a really interesting article on the net while studying anatomy. While the Theory of Evolution was proposed as a theory and Darwin himself had doubts about it towards the end of his life, it is now widely accepted as a fact. However, increasingly, well-informed people in the scientific community see serious problems in the theory. Here's an article by an Engineering lecturer at Bristol University (UK) on what your knees can tell you!

Still, More Flowers

These are not wild but planted. Absolutely beautiful! Nope i am not here to do Botany haha.

Majiam Tiong Bahru

Guess what this is? Yep, it's a tai pau! The landlord was very nice and this was waiting for me when i got back from church today. You must be wondering if it tastes like our paus in Singapore...well, yes it does but the way the meat is cut up in the pau is rather different (can't really explain it) but it's the taste that matters and it was wonderful! The night before, i got free bah-kut-teh - also Sedap haha.

Campus


These were taken while on campus. As with most campuses, things are well-spread out. So there really isn't a good spot to take a representative shot of the place.
