friday evening
after keong had his haircut at tamp, we went to visit lyddie over at her place, together with grace and choon peng. later, we met up with angela and jeff. we arrived at the farmway at 9.30pm. we made our payment ($24 for 2.5hours), got our rods and chicken heart as prawn baits. there was 2 prawning "ponds", the freshwater and saltwater, if i'm not wrong. the difference.. freshwater - the prawns can be seen (water is clearer), i heard they are harder to catch and the prawns are smaller.saltwater - the prawns cannot be seen (water is cloudy), more for beginners and the prawns have huge head and long blue claws that are sometimes longer than 15cm.but anyhow, we were prawning at the freshwater pond cos there were so many people at the saltwater pond and they all look like experts la. everyone had their own prawning rods, which are longer and can easily reach the centre of the pond, where the prawns are all near the bubbles.after 2.5hours, our catches are:jeff - 4 prawnskeong - 3 prawnsangela - 2 prawnsme - 1 prawn + 4 mosquito bites (despite burning 2 mosquito coils at my feet)actually, i lied. the prawn belongs to angela. just trying to make myself feel better. i was so close to catching one, but keong was beside me and i was afraid i would smack him with the rod. so, the prawn eventually, before i could bring the rod in, the smartass prawn managed to struggle and escape.its okie. rebecca doesn't give up easily. i shall try again soon, at a different location though. =)no pictures again cos my bro has yet to find my charger cable. argh!
