Last Saturday, I went for my first hike this year at Gunung Bujang Melaka, Perak. The trail is not so bad, I enjoyed it but one thing that bothered me there…that place is famous for leeches which I was only known of it after the hike..so grossed out..(shuddered).
Not to mention, a whole community or country of leeches will come out when it’s raining..and yup, it was raining when we were hiking back down.
As I have never been bitten by leeches, I do not know how it feels to get bitten by one. So, I was so proud and happy that I didn’t get bitten by leeches during the hike..but boy, was I wrong..haha..
Upon reaching the base where our cars were parked, everyone was rolling up their pants to check whether there were any leeches on their legs. I didn’t even checked mine until I saw my foot was bleeding and they asked me to rolled up my pants. Once I did so, there were 3 leeches sucking my leg. Of course, I screamed.
The leeches were already fat and stuffed with my blood.
I don’t mind them sucking my blood which is good cause they are taking all the dirty ones but seeing them on my legs got me sick to my stomach..haha..
So, I got 8 marks from the leeches on my legs…hehe..
mawaddah...
