My Modelling Clay

2009-07-29T20:32:00.000-07:00

Last June holiday, my mother brought me to a modelling clay class at a CC.

I went there for two lessons. The first model I made was a turtle,

and the second model was a tree trunk.

There were some machines that professionals use to make vases.

After your model is done, wait for it to dry for at least two or three days.

Once it is dry, you have to bake it in a special oven called a kiln.

And then paint it with acrylic paint and it's done.

I wish I could go for the modelling clay class again.

How to choose sweet durians

2009-07-07T22:24:00.000-07:00

I love to eat sweet durians. If you love to eat durians, you should read on.

Here's how to choose sweet durians:
1. You have to smell the durian
2. Make sure the thorns are short and broad.

After we bought the durians, we went home. We couldn't wait to eat the durians. When the durian was opened, we all rushed to eat the fruit. After we ate the durians, we used a durian seed to wash our hands. This is to clear away the smell from our hands.

This is a video of us eating durians.

I had to stop taking video to eat durians!!!

Malacca mission trip

2009-06-24T18:57:00.000-07:00

On the 19-22 of June my family and I went to Malacca with a few families to visit the orang asli.

Ibu Lian happily carrying a boy...
The young and old joined in...

...and one of their houses.

We rented two apartments. In each apartment, there are two bedrooms and a master bedroom.

On the first day, we practiced singing three malay songs to sing to the orang asli.

Hey, that's the toilet!

The first video is a song called " Aku anak Raja " and the second video is a song called "Aku cita Yesus".

The kittens drinking their mother's milk.

Look at the small monkey sucking the big monkey's tail!

I wish I can go there again. It has been fun and educational.

Science experiments

2009-04-03T20:22:00.000-07:00

First take a plate, pour in milk, then take three cotton buds. After that, soak the cotton buds in soap. Put in three drops of different food colouring into the milk. Then dip the cotton buds into the milk. See what happens.

Why did this happen? Tell me if you know. The answer is in my next blog.

Austin Hills Golf Resort

2009-01-06T21:38:00.000-08:00

My family, Cell Group and I went to Austin Hills Golf Resort in Malaysia on December 29 till 31 08.

(Hey, you mean they lifted me up with just one of their fingers???)

At the Resort, there are a Bowling alley, table tennis, tennis, swimming pool and a golf course. There were two king-sizebeds in each room and a bathtub. We swam three days in a row and went down to the bowling alley. The best part of the holiday was spent at the swimming pool.

(Look out! Here I come!)

When aunty Cecilia told us to come out of the pool, we sprayed water at her. It was fun using our newly bought water syringe. I wish we could go there again!

sentosa beach walk

2008-06-08T22:16:00.000-07:00

We went to sentosa beach walk to spot sea creatures.

This is an onch, short form of onchidium, a type of sea slug which is often mistaken for a part of a rock. It can squirt out some liquid when frightened.

We went to Tioman beach last May.

We saw this sea urchin that someone spotted at the beach. Lots of spikes!

Some people collected some corals to decorate

a sandcastle.

We saw this crab with only a claw.
