MS Carnival; mainly reptiles ♥

MS CARNIVAL TODAY!

...But I didn't stay long, so there's not much to say. Highlight of the day, REPTILE HOUSE!

Once we entered, my little brother screamed like a little girl, because it turns out that most of the snakes were out, and there was a freakin' huge python lying in the middle of the floor. Free. No restraints.

You see, I'm not a screamer. I'm a gasp-and-freeze kind of person, and that was what I did for about two seconds. Then, I got excited. After that, I don't know how it happened, but I have a snake around my neck. I was just looking at the snake and the guy just suddenly put it around my neck! Curses flew by, but then I kinda like it!

See, it matched my shirt too!

And then he suddenly put another one! HORRY SHITTO MAMA MIA!

Then I went to the lizards. They said it's a bearded dragon, but I'm not sure, I think they were just guessing. The caretakers weren't anywhere near, haha.

This is the grown-up lizard. I LOVE this one. I had it on me for most of the time. I surprised a few people as well, lol. People were starting to think I was the owner because they started asking questions that I have no idea about it. Really though, it was sooooo cute. I felt slightly sad when I had to let it go ;___;

How do you get one of these? I am seriously considering!

SMARTER Sibling Support Group + Camping Trip!

Sorry, I've been busy/lazy/buzy/lasy.

Just a short update because currently I have SO much to rant about, I'd rather not talk about any of it.

Last Friday, SMARTER organised a Sibling Support Workshop for us. I have to admit, the sharing session was quite emotional. Each of us had to share something about our autistic brother/sister. Whoever didn't shed a tear is heartless, heartless I tell you! I realised how we all experienced the same thing with them; criticism from the public, friends' ignorance, parents' high expectations, our own future, etc.

Not all of us were close to our siblings, and it made more difficult for them to share, but it was understandable. Our siblings are the ones who choose who they want to be close with, and I can say that yes, I am close with him, and I'm thankful for that.

The next day, it was camping time! It was my first time going camping, but we got a cabin, with fans, lights, and electrical outlets. So it's not really a camping trip. So what. Still, at night it was REALLY dark though, since there were no lights at all besides on the mini stage. My sisters along with others did a very beautiful hand-mime performance, which I saw the rehearsal of the day before, and I made up my mind to record it, and so I did!

Please watch it. :D I have to fix it up; re-adding the song, enhancing the colours, and adding subtitles just for the heck of it, or else a lot of background noise had actually entered it and the colours weren't really the best.

So here you go!
