Err. Mushroom ... Expedition?

23 April 2010

Photos, at last!

I went to Pantai Kerachut with my family last Sunday.

My first trip to Pantai Kerachut was in 2008, and it was a trip organised by a school club. Saw loads of interesting things, like a gorgeous purple mushroom, fronds of green and yellow seaweed, and loads more.

The second time I went, it was in 2009. It was raining, and it was very damp and misty. We had to hike with umbrellas, which was hilarious. And irritating. LOL. Went trampling in the mud (which was supposed to be the UNIQUE meromictic lake), probably squashed thousands of tiny crabs in the process. Sank almost knee-deep into the mud, it was such an icky feeling. But it was FUN. Saw a giant jellyfish washed ashore. Saw a large centipede. Also a lot of things.

I've GOT to post a photo of the purple mushroom again. It's so pretty, and I have never seen a mushroom like that before! I have only seen the likes of ... err, button mushrooms, enoki mushrooms .... uh, to put it in other words, the EDIBLE ones.


Neh! Pretty?

Actually we saw many purple mushrooms this time too! Except that it was because they were mouldy that they turned purple. Not naturally purple. If you get what I mean.

Okay. PHOTOS! :)



Witnessed an idyllic sunrise.

Photo taken from the car, so. Not of the best quality.

We reached the place too early, and the guard told us that we could only start hiking after 8. So we went to the filthy, muddy beach and explored.





Hard to believe mud flats could look so beautiful, eh?


MINI KRAKEN! Hahaha.

There were three of these mini octopuses on the beach.

My brother's caption for this photo was : "Sashimi, anyone?" :P



Physics sucks. And I suck in Physics.







Totally LOVE the backdrop for this. So ... picturesque.



I took this photo.



My sister took this photo. MAJOR FAIL OKAY!

Alright, it's not that bad. I just really hate the "pillar" at the side.



My brother took this photo.

I still like the one I took of him better. Bah. Hahaha. Getting smug, are we.





VAIN LEH! Hahahaha.

On a completely irrelevant note, I found this adorable photo on Facebook where a cat was hugging an Elmo toy. DAMN CUTE.



Okay, so they're technically NOT seashells. They're actually hermit crabs. I think. So pretty right! Like colourful pebbles.





SO MANY PRETTY SHELLS! Fine, fine. Only one of them is pretty. But! I hope they grow up. Into the size of ... say, both your palms. Then we'll catch them and have them made into instruments. Yay. :)







Cute spiral plant! Forgot what it's called. Sorry for the lousy photo quality. Guess I was too tired.

(IT'S RELEVANT.)





Looks like a white-coloured Amanita mushroom! You know, the poisonous blood red mushrooms with the white "spots"? Like in ... Alice in Wonderland? Toadstools?

It's SO SO SO pretty. A bit scary (especially if you stare at those bulgy pebble-like THINGS on it), but still. I like it! It's very big. Okay, not VERY, but still quite big.

I'm feeling a bit sleepy now. I guess you can tell. I'm starting to talk in ... circles. Something.



Nah, my "ARTISTIC" shot. LOL.



We reached the beach AT LONG LAST. Part of it was my fault as I ... err, misguided them. Not entirely my fault too lah! Was just following the trail I used in 2008. Haha.





Unknown creature. Hahaha. Looks like a cross between a beetle, a cockroach, a grasshopper ... what else?



We climbed onto the rocks, over to the other side. To EXPLORE.



Crabs for breakfast, anyone? Hahaha.

Don't worry, they're dead. I think it's the shell or something. My cousin told me that. Not sure.



LOOK! The crab floats. LOL. It was damn stupid.

See the freaky fish? Well, my brother threw his "crab" into the pool to try to make the fish get out from under the rocks, but he missed. Then I tried to throw mine in. At first, I just lowered the crab slowly but then ... how to describe it? Bouyancy? Pressure? The legs kept ... you know when like poles of magnets repel? That "feeling" was what I experienced.

So I tried to throw the crab in like my brother did, and it FLOATED instead. =.= Stupid crab. And the fish didn't move a single inch. Gah. In the end, I just pluck one of those shells (balidong or something) in the pool and threw it at the fish, and ....



There you have it. The freaky fish. WTF. Don't ask me why I describe everything as "freaky".

It's eyes are green. Scary eh. Actually I think it's EYE. I think it's yellow or orange on the other side. Heh. Fascinating thing. Like a lionfish. You know, the purplish, bluish, reddish, spotty, frilly saltwater fish! That looks like a lion?

LOL. Sorry. I know I'm being lame. I sound like I'm drunk. I almost feel as if I'm drunk, I'm so happy. For what reason, I don't know. Probably for watching the Big Bang funny videos. Had me smiling for ages. Hahahahaha.





Sorry. Can't resist. I look like I have eyeliner on.

But I SUPER hate my hair. Hahaha.



Look at the eyes, they're so cute. Heh. Saw this little fella in the lake.



JELLYFISH! People still dared to bathe in the sea. Wah. Scary.

Guess what we saw during our "return journey" to where we started the hike?



:(

The pretty white freaky mushroom!!!! I guess somebody kicked it. I like kicking mushrooms too actually. So does my sister. Who doesn't? Hahaha. But it was such an unusual mushroom! How could people just kick it like that! Argh.

Okay. Post ends here. Going to ogle hot guys now. BIG BANG! <3>

Dead Blog :P

20 April 2010

Okay, I KNOW I haven't updated since two weeks ago, and in the entry I posted two weeks ago I mentioned about how I haven't updated since two weeks ago because of the test. Haha. Something like that.

I actually have a lot of things to blog about, I'm just lazy. Besides, I'm sort of crazy over Korean guys now. Thanks to Rumi. HAHA. So I spent (still spending) most of my time online looking for photos and interesting facts about those guys.

I know a lot of people say that all those Koreans (GUYS, not girls because they all look the same) look so hot because of plastic surgery. But honestly. Not ALL people look good after they undergo plastic surgery. Perfect example? HEIDI MONTAG.



Look at those boobs. I mean ... guys, do you actually like girls with boobs like that?

ZzzzZ. What a total fake. She actually looked alright before she got about 10 types of surgery done to herself.

Sorry, I'm going to bore you all with details, my opinions, BLAH BLAH. Paiseh. I never was a person who could keep her opinions to herself. Good opinions of other people, that is. If they're bad, I mostly, MOSTLY keep them to myself. Emphasis on the word mostly.

BIG BANG!





I think their songs are amazing. Unlike any other Asian songs I have ever heard (which aren't that many, come to think of it). There's just something different about their songs. They're so cute, and they're cool.

(Be prepared, you'll be seeing the same few adjectives many, many times in this post)

When I told a lot of people that I have fallen in love with Korean stars they were like, (O.O) because normally I wouldn't listen to Asian songs and watch Asian dramas.







I like T.O.P!! He's like ... whoa. HOT. He can be a cute, cool, sexy, funny anything, and that's precisely why I love him so much.

For example, I don't really like a person who's cool all the time, I'd like him/her to show their cute or crazy side occasionally.

How can one not love a person who says "Blueberry Chiki-chiki Cheesecake"? And his smirk. Mad sexy. And his personality (from what I've read on the net).

Turns out he has the "lowest mental age" in Big Bang and likes toys. And he likes fashion. AND shopping. WHAT ELSE! As if you need anything else. Total dream guy.

Oh, and he hugs a frigging panda soft toy to sleep!!! <3


!!!!!!!






And G-Dragon is too cute. TOO CUTE! Love how he puts his hand over his face when he laughs.



LOOK AT T.O.P IN THE DINOSAUR SUIT!!! :DDDD



I'm in love with the song Wedding Dress by Taeyang! Another member of Big Bang. Awesome song. And the video is brilliant too. Loved the dancing, he's a great dancer. And he sings real good.

Hui Jing likes him, and Hooi Ling LIKED him before she saw how muscular he is. HAHAHA. I don't get why people here don't like guys with muscles, six packs, etc. Weird huh. I like. LOL. But I think Taeyang's biceps are a tad large. Heh.

I have a lot to say actually, but it'll take days and days for me to finally finish whatever it is that I want to say. ARGH.

Oh. Mustn't forget. I'm in love with Jang Geun Suk too. His smile is to die for. DAZZLING. So ... CUTE (sorry). Gorgeoussss. (YES! A new word!)





How .... how .... HANDSOME is he??!

It's weird how I like him since I don't even - SELDOM - watch Korean dramas. I have started liking him since I saw him in Beethoven Virus. But Rumi told me he looked awful in that show, with his weird hair and all. AND I still found him cute. :P



Okay. Paiseh. For boring you. IF you even read the whole thing. Anyhoo. I'll try to update. I really might, you know. Because the exams are approaching and I need to take my mind off it. LOL. You know, convince myself that updating my blog is more important than studying.

OH CRAP I FORGOT to look for an article for English tomorrow. Tsk. Never mind. I'm going to bed, it's going to be a looooooong day tomorrow. Sigh. TUITION.

6 April 2010

I know the test was two weeks ago. And I haven't updated since BEFORE the test. I know I suck!

I have been sick since Thursday night. Went home from school early on Friday, and was absent from school Monday and Tuesday. Not exactly sure what illness it was, but some of the symptoms matched those of the dengue fever. Rashes, joint pain, you know.

But the thing is, I'm better now, and I'm going back to school tomorrow. Don't know if I should feel happy or not. Sigh.

I feel very lazy. Lazy to do my homework, lazy to even upload the photos, lazy to climb the stairs ... I feel exhausted after being sick for so many days. All those days of laying on the bed and the lack of food intake made me very tired. Days of plain, tasteless noodles, disgusting antibiotics, bitter panadols ... is OVER!

Almost la. Provided I don't suddenly feel sick again.

I swear those antibiotics were the most horrible things I have eaten. Tasted like vomit, like some rotten food. Errgh. Worse still, the smell of the pills linger everywhere. Like on your shirt, in your throat, in the toilet. You know what I mean. Hahaha. AND IT'S FREAKING GROSS.

Okaaay. I don't promise I'll post up the photos, but I just might do so. If I get over this lazy phase of mine. Which I have been in since last year. Zzzz.

My stupid rashes are fucking itchy. *WAILS*
