courtesy of a colleague used in their class. it was already found dead, so i did not harm him :)

spotted by a colleague outside school premises, he's about two and half inches long :)

i caught this terrapin while sunbathing outside :D. while his other friends are cooling by the water, he is happily bumming around the red bed. i really find him so cute so i took snapshots of him. i actually didn't realise that he was already looking at me. probably he was pissed off because i am disturbing his resting time. :D in all seriousness, it's from the class for the drop-off. they are having pets for their themes. they also have a hamster in class. but i find the terrapins really really cute. look at him just chilling out :D

Although sometimes superficially similar to sea turtles in shape, having webbed feet and thinner shells than fully terrestrial tortoises, terrapins do not belong to the sea turtle superfamily Chelonioidea. In British English, the species most commonly referred to as terrapins are members of the family Emydidae including the red-eared slider Trachemys scripta elegans and the slider terrapin Trachemys dorbignyi.[2] Perhaps confusingly, although the genus to which the box turtles belong, Terrapene, sounds similar to the word terrapin, these turtles are not normally called terrapins. got this info from wikipedia.

i was never really that fond of wearing a watch. i used to before, but as soon as the battery died from a previous watch of mine, i never bothered replacing a new one. but when i saw this one in a swatch shop, i knew it was love at first sight. hehehe! i love the colours of this watch and the design too! plus factor is that it's cheap as it is actually meant for kids!

it's a sort of accidental shot. i was trying to diffuse the flash but was having a difficult time holding the cam and covering the flash. when i checked it out, i like how vivid the colours are. and it seems like it's a vignette. :D

i wasn't able to attend the mass yesterday due to headache. ate d asked me to come today since uncle will do the reading for this afternoon's mass. we arrived early at the church and there were a few people. i told ate d i'd go and look around. these are what i have found by the grotto of Our Lady of Perpetual Succour.





since i make it to a point to always bring a camera, even if it is a cloudy afternoon, i never missed the chance to hit the shutter. my only problem is that, i can't ID them. i'm not so good with floras. :P
