One Hour Personal Journey

On last thursday , I decided to travel back home by bus. I usually take MRT back home and only take bus to school and so I wanted to experience something new . I don't really take bus home because of the traffic jams , but for that day , I try to take the bus at a peak hour.

I took a different route to the bus stop . On my way to the bus stop, i realised there's a cafe . I didn't know there's a small cafe at that area . I find the cafe is really unique. The name of the cafe is, Snowy Village Authentic Korean Dessert Cafe. I also love to see the surrounding of the cafe and seems like there's something on beside the cafe.

I could walk a shorter distance to the bus stop but because of the construction works, i have to walk a longer way . I have to enter Sim Lim Square and walk to the bus stop. 
At the bus stop
I realised there's so many cars on the road and the bus stop was crowded at that timing. When i get into the bus , i noticed that the traffic was jam because of the construction works as this is to improve on the transportation.

Although the journey is much more longer than taking the MRT , I still enjoy taking the bus as I get to see the afternoon view. I also get to experience taking bus at a peak hour. I will surely take the bus to travel back home again. That's all about my one hour journey.

Mary who has thick eyebrows, and her quirky friend , were sitting on a tree and playing her bassoon. A tchoukball player , who is a left handed, was chasing a dog and the dog tried escaping by climbing the tree. Mary was so shocked that she lost balance and fell into a hole that was filled with insects. She scream out loud as she scared of insects. Being a sneaker head , she was annoyed by her dirty sneaker. So , she immediately buy a new pair of orange turqoise sneakers. From the incident onwards, her finger became spastic and she hates holes.

Creativity and Play



Creativity is something that you can produce by playing simple things. It is need for self-expression as well as to develop manual skills.

Here are some examples:

Car Toys
In Indonesia, kids in the villages can't afford car toys in the city. So by their creativity, they used Pomelo's skin to make car toys. Then they put long bamboo sticks and have a race with their friends. They also use recycled materials. therefore, it comes instinctively to use your creativity to find something to play with.

Flying Kites
Kite with lights
Using creativity, we can play kites in the night sky also. They put colourful lights on their kites so many people can see their kites flying in the sky. When creating kites also , we have to use our own creativity on how to design it . This activity , help us to stimulate the creative side of our mind.

Kid building play house

In the market , there's a lot of such play house , lego for the children to play with. This is to make them think creatively on how to build it . It also to make them excited when making it as to know the result of their own creation.

Therefore , playfulness comes naturally when we are set with the environment.
