Batam Batam Batam S'pore still the best!
I just came back from Batam a few days ago. Only then did I realise that Singapore was still the best although the things were more expensive.
I gained a few facts about birds while I was in Batam. Cuz there were a few birds locked in cages in the hotel we were staying in. There was an owl named Pugguk, a black bird that can say Hello, 2 parrots or smth lyk that n a few other birds. The owl was the most interesting among all. When we went to see it in the day, we saw it staring at us with its yellow beady eyes. It blinked once every minute or so. When it blinked, I saw that its eyelids were purple. Then, my sister n I did an experiment. I read in a book before that an owl's head can turn its head 360 degrees. I did not believe it but since an owl was in front of me, I tried it out. My sister walked slowly around the cage n the owl turned its head, staring at her every second. Finally, my sister made a complete round around the cage. Surprisingly, the owl's eyes never left her. Which means that an owl can turn its head 360 degrees. Cool! I noticed that the owl never moved its eyeballs becuz they r tubular in shape.
Well, there was nothing much in Batam, only shopping complexes. We went to 2 shopping complexes while we were there. 1 was MegaMall, and the other, DC Mall. The things there were really cheap. The things were sold in rupias. 1000rupias=$0.20 So we went on a shopping spree n bought many things for our frenz in singapore. But since most of the people there spoke in only Malay, we had difficulty communicating with some of the stall owners.
From this trip, I learned some malay n some bird facts n saw the beautiful scenery there. This widened my perspective of owls...
Batam is really cool ! No wonder PCK is best in Singapore, best in JB and some say Batam!
