Animals are adorable. However they smell strange. I was in the zoo just now and some of the animals had their excrement lying beside them. So they eat and sleep next to excrement. Maybe they're used to it.

It's been a long time since I last went to the zoo. The place is very different from what I remembered. When we went in, the first animals we saw were these animals with horns in this enclosure. I said, "Eh, not real right? The real ones hiding somewhere? How come all fake ones. The zoo does this now, is it? Maybe not enough animals". My companion couldn't confirm. Then one of the fakos yawned. We were shocked. Why did they remain so still like statues? Anyway, throughout the whole excursion, many of the animals were good at pretending to be statues. Maybe they're trained to do that so we can take nice pictures of them. Bleah.

So it was pretty much looking at the animals lazying away or sleeping and looking at their backsides. I don't know why so many of them choose to show us their backs. Fortunately, it was time for something more exciting. The feeding of the polar bears. The polar bears were dirty. Green and black fur. They looked huge. Especially the male one named Inuka. They were much smaller when I watched the show the last time I went to the zoo. The presenter then told us to move on to another feeding. Then another and another. Then something happened. Nope, I'm not going to write about it here. You may ask me if you want. Anyway after the thing, we went for lunch and we felt tired. Took the tutu train and it was rather fun and relaxing. Passed by the Seletar reservoir and it really reminded us of the time when we went to Casuarina Walk for the smp project. Then we took the tram too.

We were pretty tired. Saw many animals. My vote for greediest animal goes to the sunbear. They really have this greedy look on their faces. Plus the way they salivated and scrambled to get the food which dropped. Another vote for strongest willpower was for the meerkat. It's this really small furry animal which sunbathed for a long time. It just stood there like a statue. For a few hours. No sweat. Most detestable animal? Wild dogs. They reminded me of the dog which chased me in Ubin.

My companion wanted to ride elephants and ponies. I wasn't that adventurous and in the end we didn't because we got distracted by the thing. Phew. Anyway we also went for the sealion show and guess what? I shook the sealion's flipper. They were really cute!

Okay, I enjoyed my trip even though I woke up feeling really tired and sian. Just feel quite sorry for the animals in captivity. They looked really tired and sian. Most of them. Even the ones which looked happy because they were performing looked happy because they got food. I didn't like the way they got food for performing some unnatural act. (Made me wonder if they were starved before performing.) Although I enjoyed them performing the unnatural acts. Contradiction.

Oh well, what mattered most to me was that she enjoyed it. I hope she did. =)
