I dreamt that i was off at some beach picking seashells with my cg mates. Haha.. i was very happy cos the shells off the shore were all very pretty!
Haha... i suspect i had this dream cos my cg mates and kristy are off to tioman on a dive trip. Hope they'll be able to see pretty things :)
What's the big deal about seashells anyway? I've been collecting them since young! And i like them so much that i cant bear to pack them away in a box to give way to my thick medical books and files :)
Bottow row: The smaller shells are organised according to sizes in the drawers
Middle row: The big ones that i'm proud of! :)
Top row: I used to collect pretty bottles too.
Bottom row: This is what i mean.. according to sizes :)
Middle row: Pardon the poor lighting.. it was pouring outside and my room lights werent enough to light up my cupboard.
Middle row again: I like the sea urchin shell. I used to call it 'the brain' in pri sch cos i thought it looked like a brain. haha
Can u see the shell with brown stripes? It's one of my favourite :)
This is a closer view! :) Quite pretty right? It's called nautilus.
(by the time i took this pic, the rain stopped, hence the lighting is better! yay)
This is another of my favourite. I rmbr how careful i had to be when i bought it home. It'd be imprefect if any one of the spikes break. Anyway, i liked this a lot last time cos i had this impression that mermaids used them to comb their hair :)
Anyway, the nautilus has a very pretty cross section! Unfortunately, till today i havent figure out why the creature needs so many compartments. Does anyone know?
Speaking about the creature, here's a pic of it! I wonder if kristy, gab and wenhui will see them when they dive.
I found out today that these are called sea dollars. I really like the floral patterns. Again, did this pattern happen by chance or is it for survival purposes?
Detailed spikes.
Cowry. These shells used to be used as currencies!
I shall end off with last two pictures of my shelves
Top row showing gab's koala, colin's many-in-one russian doll, RJC brick my angle koped for me, photo of my primary sch classmates, my cousin's green photo frame and many bottles in the background. Yay
