exploring the rocky coastline at Labrador park

I went for a nature walk along the rocky coast line at Labrador Park yesterday. As usual, I had forgotten all about it until I was reminded by YJ. I even forgot to note it down. Not that I had forgotten about the walk. It was more like the date didn't really hit me. I had no idea that the 8th of March was already here.

When reminded the night before, the brain nearly crashed due to the lack of processing power. My eyes nearly crossed while I struggled to remember what I was supposed to do on Saturday. Usually I will have practice (which I will be MIA-ing till May), I have theory lessons... and then I hit my forehead in dismay because I had yet to finish my homework. In the end, I realise that it would be far beneficial to go for the walk than to go for theory lessons.

The day was relaxing. A whole day of not doing anything which meant that I could possibly expiate later on in the near future. I drove there and the place was dotted with military police.......who looked at me while I parked my car. (-_-")

ok.. I had problems because their huge truck blocked my way and I had problems navigating into the slot...and so one guy offered his suggestions while the rest watched.

I told my mother about it...she said I should have asked them if I looked like Mas Selamat..bleah...

The walk was relaxing. Because all I had to do was just listen. And I saw lots of stuff like really tiny hermit crabs, weird worms, remnants of oyster shells on walls. They were really pretty, the pillars looked as though they were inlaid with mother-of-pearl.

That's me and because of the knots in the pants and the angle..

I have a huge tummy !! ^%$&^$&^

Stepped on some corals..oops..we didn't mean to. And I also learnt how to distinguish them from the normal barnacle-riddled stones. Pried open shell-stuff from their rocks. I can't remember their names but I know enough to look out for them lest I sit or squash them from now on. Most seaweeds are edible. I saw the seaweed that agar-agar was made from. There was even this really unique seaweed that contained calcium as well as sea-grapes that looked like large green pomelo sacs. Someone actually put it into her mouth and described it as salty with a bitter after-taste.

Oh most shelled-animals we saw are mostly edible too. So I figured Mas Selamat can probably hide out for a very long time if he is near the coast..lol

It felt like a holiday.

I was glad I went....it as a nice short reprieve and then now...it's back to work again..
