A day at the beach!

Last Tuesday the 9th we only had class until 10 in the morning so we decided to pack up and head to the beach! The closest beach is in Port Dickson, called 8 mile which is about an hour drive from INTI. We took a cab both ways, and were for sure overcharged but for the day we had it was well worth it! It was only the two of us so as most of you can imagine we spent the whole day giggling and taking pictures. Meghan kept the day interesting by working on her impression and Shannon almost busted a gut from laughing so hard. Since it was a Tuesday we pretty much had the beach to ourselves well besides the creepers that would randomly pop out of the buildings that lined the beach. At which point Meghan would sprint out of the water glaring as to guard our bags. After soaking up far too much sun and feeling like we had gone days without showering from swimming in the salt water we decided to take a break and “study.” We were only sitting for about 10 minutes when a supposed lifeguard and his friends started talking to us in a language we didn’t quite understand; then when we looked up one of them was climbing a coconut tree and chucking a couple down. They came over and broke one open for us to try and to our surprise it was actually pretty enjoyable. A few hours later we decided it was time to find some sort of dinner. Moms it might be best that you omit the next couple lines out of your reading pleasures. We walked quite a ways almost being run over and scared to death by a dead cat only to find a “convenient store” which was literally a whole in the wall. Here we bought the only prepackaged item they had. Chocolate powder cookies!! They turned out to be thoroughly delicious. We sat on the beach until sunset rehashing the day, eating our cookies, and just enjoying how overwhelmingly happy the day had made us!!
