Art Excursion to The Zoo

Had an art excursion to the zoo today. The last time i remembered going to the zoo was when i was in Primary 5.  It was fun yet tiring. We were suppose to draw a few animals in the zoo. I don't get how those professional artist could actually draw something that is moving and couldn't sit still. Majorities of us drew a bat since it was the only animal that is not moving since bat are nocturnal therefore they were sleeping throughout. For me, i decided to draw the flowers that was along the pathway. There were quite alot of different flowers and plant that could be found at the zoo too. 


'' Maimunah, are you at the zoo or Botanic Garden? Why are you only drawing picture of flowers? " Mr Lim sounded.

My reply was simple, " You told us to draw all the things that we can see and are able to draw in the zoo. I can't figure out how to draw all the animals since they are all moving and i am not an expert artist. On top of that, you said to draw things we see in the zoo, and i do see flowers which attract me more than the animals. Plus it's easier." 

Well, being the rebellious girl in class, there was nothing much he could say. Just have that lazy-to-entertain look towards me.

Yet, that doesn't changes a thing as i still need to hand up 10 different animals drawing by next Wednesday. Which i have decided to just look up for animals pictures from the internet and just draw it. What's so hard about it. I don't have to go through the trouble drawing moving animals when we could have a still picture of the animals. 

The most ridiculous thing about the zoo was the food prices there. It can cost up to three time's more that the food outside. We were all hungry, and although majority of us had enough money to buy the food there, we decided not to waste it. We thought it'd be better we just save it for later and eat it once we were dismissed from school later on. It would definitely be cheaper.

Yet, upon dismissal, despite being super hungry, i had pass. Told Bella, Wani and Shaf to go ahead to have their lunch at CWP since Mickey was waiting for me outside school. It was such a surprise to have him fetch me from school. 

He wanted to treat me to lunch especially since he felt bad that he actually disturb my plan to eat with my friends as he knows how i hungry i was but decided to endure a little and spent time with him instead as i could always eat at home to my mum's cooking. 

That little crush we have for each other.
