We had a wonderful sleep and a bright morning because there were no classes. But kidding aside, we were glad to have the opportunity to prepare ourselves as we face a new chapter in our academic journey with the start of the second semester.
Furthermore, today was declared a holiday because it's Chinese New Year. To make the most of it, we planned to go to the sea to look for seafood since it was low tide.
My friends and I prepared some bags to carry whatever we could gather. The weather was windy and a bit sunny perfect for this kind of activity. When we arrived, the seashore had indeed dried out due to the low tide. We were excited because we knew this would be our chance to hunt for seafood, as it's easier to find them when the water recedes.
Without wasting time, we immediately started searching. We split up to speed up the process. Luckily, my friends found some seafood, and they were quite big. I also caught a crab and gathered some shells.
We had planned to look for sea urchins, but it seemed impossible since they were too far out. We also noticed that no one else was heading in that direction, so we decided not to risk it. Instead, we went to the mangrove area and found some oysters. We spent the rest of our time picking oysters that were stuck to the mangroves.
When we noticed that we had gathered plenty, we decided to head home. Upon arriving, we washed everything and cooked our catch. Finally, we shared and enjoyed the seafood we had collected together.
