so prawning last night netted me a grand total of.. FIVE prawns in 3 hours. hahaha okay fine i'm very noob. but then its my first time. at least now i know that i should jerk the rod when i feel a pull, and make sure the bait is well threaded so that the prawns dont make off with the bait unscathed. tricksy little things disappeared with my bait like at least 5 times haha.
and i overcame my fear of prawn feelers! haha ever since my mom tried to make me peel prawns for cooking ages ago i've never been able to touch prawn feelers without feeling all tingly. but last night i was BRAVE i learnt how to pull the hook from the prawn. quite a feat esp since some of them have PINCERS (i apologise to my greedy friends for i know that immediately made you think of chili crab haha). and the prawns jerk and thrash about waving their claws and snapping them at your fingers.

then they have barbeque grills at the back
for you to cook your prawns on the rack.
however, you first have to skewer them with a satay stick,
something that i find is just plain sick.
and so my neighbours were shocked to see
me setting those 5 dear prawns free
where they swam away in perfect glee
bound to find out that they've escaped only me (ie they're probably swimming in someone elses gastric juices now)

haha pardon my sudden wish to rhyme, it must be today's rare lightness of mind. HAHA.

and here i have my first prawn! caught within minutes, after which there was an incredibly dry spell haha.
and the total takings for the night in the net, although you cant really see them.

i'm a new soul
i came to this strange world
hoping i could learn a bit bout how to give and take
but since i came here, felt the joy and the fear
finding myself making every possible mistake

la, la, la, la
la, la, la, la

see i'm a young soul in this very strange world
hoping i could learn a bit bout what is true and fake
but why all this hate? try to communicate
finding trust and love is not always easy to make

a very me song, according to someone who i think knows me well enough.
