Tuesday, May 17, 2011 11:34 PM Kick Start I guess all I needed was that bit of adventure to get me going,get me motivated to school and be prepared for tomorrow. I guess it if wasn't for today I wouldn't have that little motivation I would need when I start feeling lazy and all. Today was my first day fishing and we decided on this last week with some of my FYP team mates. Haslinda couldn't join us because he worked later last night and don't think she could wake up. PANGSEH! My brother,Roy and Hazirah ended up going.     The plan was just to fish for fun and catch crabs.Hazirah showed me how to catch those shell fish that they usually sell at hawker stalls,usually malays eat it with lemak chili padi.We just call it "chut chut" coz of the sound it makes when you eat them.Usually the top of the shell has to be broken and you suck them out to eat them, that's how the name chut chut comes about because of the sucking sound.           While we were away Roy caught a small fish I dunno wad's the name of it and so did my brother,he caught a groupa. I was kind of impatient when it comes to fishing, but I caught a fish and it was the biggest catch of the day!  I guess it was just beginners luck.A fish caught all by myself without any help.=) We ended the day by cooking the crabs and the fish my brother and roy caught.I saved the sea baas for my family and it was really fresh.           On a sadder note,I just came to realise that being an outdoor student, I cannot tell if a fruit is ripe yet alone identify some plants that we normally eat and I don't know how to clean a fish internal organs.What more can younger generations know where their food comes from and how to process it. I guess they will only know that food comes from fast food chains and cans.It's even sad if they can't tell the difference between a duck and a chicken or never seen any of them in their life. Give me a fish I'll survive for the day, Teach me to fish I'll survive my life .
