Gill Rot

On friday night, i quarrantined pinky into a seperate tank where i could get lots of oxygen to it.

I figured out that it was on the bottom of the tank, due to oxygen depravation, and in two days time, i woke up and found pinky swimming around happily ^^

I let it swim for a couple hours, and returned it into the normal tank. On closer examination, i think i've found out what the cause is. Gill Rot.

I still can't believe i paid $40 for a FX-82AU.

I've got a sore throat from nem noung and chao tom - and i've got lotsa work to do =
And i feel really crook, the whole headache, tired, stuffy feeling. That Gill rot looks pretty bad.. apart from that, pinky's fine. Still don't know how there can be a lack of oxygen in that tank.. i'm using twice as many pumps as i should, and if i wasn't worried about extra oxygen creating extra bateria, id put more.

Pinky

Pinky... one of the first three shubunkins in my tank.. recently got sick.

It wasn't because i was neglegent or anything- pinky was just born sick.

It was the cutest one, its see through - so it appears pink with the normal eye. - and its got two googly black eyes.

It usually never ate. It was always the smallest, and the slowest. - and recently i noticed it was looking weird, its body was bent all out of shape, and bloated in some areas, while bone thin n others.

Even if its just deformed... It can't eat properly =( now it just lies on the bottom gasping for air... skwed to one side =(

Occasionally it has a burst of energy and swims to the surface, but like and candle in the wind - i think its goodbye for pinky =((

HSCUAI

I just HAVE to say it.

HSC and UAI are COMPLETELY different.

There. i said it. I'll probably regret it when i have a billion asians screaming at me " BUT THEY ARE THE SAME. WHY ELSE WOULD YOU DO THE HSC. BUT THEY ARE THE SAME. YOU'RE STUPID. YOU'RE CYNICAL. YOU'RE DEPRESSING. YOU'RE JUST JEALOUS."

They are different for a million reasons. If you beg to differ - tell me at the end of the HSC -

SIGH

Unagi Vol Au Vent's

Im not sure how others would react - but how about if i was: a food journalist? Or perhaps even a culinary tour guide?

i've commented a couple times on how little variety there was in my pantry - but my garden was plenty enough to feed even the most hungry, and fickle eater. Theres always a constant supply of:

Guavas, Sugarcane, Spring onions, Green, Red, Orange and Purple Chillies, Figs, Blood Plums, Baby Mandarins, Sweet potato, Bitter Gourd, Winter Melon, Aloe Vera, Ginger, Lemon Grass, Lime, Lemon, Vietnamese Basil, Mint - and billion other herbs

Not to mention the occasional supply of Mangoes, Rocket, potatoes etc..

There was a time when there was always fresh eggs in the morning - from my three chickens. And occasionally there was fresh chicken and duck - which i refused to eat.

Anyhoo - I just thought id highlight whats there - because the garden has been suffering lately. Mostly because of the water restrictions. Some are drying out - but some plants are loving the dry conditions - and have completely over taken the garden. I have the vines of winter melon from the backyard causing melons to pop up on my front yard. =S

I also - have to plan - i need to make an impression in the holidays. I'm thinking japanese french fusion. Unagi Vol Au Vent's anyone?

defeat.

HAROLD DEF JISM 3-6 6-0 6-1 5-7 6-4 (183)

Lets do this in chronological order.

so im tired rite. its 10pm. i was thinkin of going to sleep, but my sister just made me pay for dinner (even though id already had dinner) so i decided to eat whats mine.

So we cooked the garlic bread, baby chat potatoes and spinach Agnolotti with a cream of bacon and mushroom sauce.

Then i was tired - but i had bio, but all my notes were left in the car... which my parents took.. who weren't home.... SO i stayed up till the wee early morning hours to wait. and wait..

4 hours later i wake up. I have some left over garlic bread for breakfast, i take my red eye and get a lift. Its bio - That damn "describe" question. damm all the questions. It was way too hard. I knew something was wrong as i was doing the research - "it can't be that easy can it." i was right. Everyone walking out saying "yayyy that was easy" but oh no... it was a freaking "describe" question.

For those of you who din't stay up last night looking up the implications of getting a "describe" question, it means that they want you to do everything. But they won't tell you what they're checking. In fact it means write down everything you know, and just pray that you've got something they want- Its like being robbed by the KKK.

Gloria lost two of my balls.. which havn't been used yet... Then we went taking photos. At the cricketnets. At our place. In the toilets. And of various people/couples. Then people made bets on harold and my game to take place in the afternoon. I lost. I had no shoes. In the second set i was forced to take my shoes off and play barefooted because the shoes gave me blisters... even though i had socks.. Without socks.. in next to no time, my feet hurt. then thats when i started losing like hell stupid shoes. stupid pain. If only i had shoes - then i wouldn't scream every time my feet hit the ground.

ANYWAY. i'll speed up. since its too long already. i drank about 3L of water today, i got offered drugs twice.. and i still got lots of energy, but my feet hurt.

FUNNY THING IS. today in the game, i didn't break a single bead of sweat.

USUALLY. i sit in pools of my sweat even an hour after a game.

TODAY. i sweated none. even in winter i sweat.

I DON"T KNOW. if it was because harry was crap. or i was so good that i dind't need to sweat. or some freak nature coincidence.

Jen: Helen came today trying to sell her...(thinks)
Jim: herself?

AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH

i felt like dying today - i was so tired, and im also on my 4th Litre of water today.

still got to do my chemistry thing... =(

i have all tuesday, but i was thinking of doing some work on the bike, i mite need new tires, but i'll just adjust the pressure then them first, make the front tyres softer, and the brake balance at the rear, that way - i can turn better ^^

i've just realised maybe i don't need to adjust the ratios, i do have 15 speeds, 5 gears hmmm...

huffy

DAMM i havn't riden a bike in years. its so dam tiring - i rode for an hour and i can't remember when i've been that worked.

I'm planning for a 30min session in the morning, so i go and get maccas ^^

then if i come home i can ride and get some lunch - but id hafta skip lunch at school, then i'd be too full to eat after school.

Well i spent a good 3 hours on the bike today,
1hr putting it together
1hr making sure it was all working
and anohter 1hr tuning it - but i just managed to do the wheels and axels today, i've got to leave gear ratios when i've got 6 hours spare.

i've also got to get; headlights, pegs, helmet, new tyres, maybe a new seat cause my ass hurts

and new tennis balls. and tennis grips.

caffine

this 2 times a week tennis thing is getting pretty cool - and im considering a 2hour bike ride after school whenever i dont have tennis - and when birrong pool FINALLY opens, im thinking of morning swims.

Im really serious about this bookburning thing. Who's in?

and doing maths aint so bad at night either.

It all takes the stress away =) And its comforting to know that even if i come out with a moronic UAI - at least i won't be a sheltered prude ^^

In other events - i've had: two bottles of RED-EYE, each containing 102?mg of caffine, two bottles of WILD NRG, each containing 120mg, and a double shot of coffee, each shot containing 102mg of caffine - a total of 630mg of caffine. 3.5 times over the daily maximum intake.

i've probably had more - but the caffine might explain why theres a layer of my own hair on my table...

breadtop.

i love breadtop.

and red-eye drinks.

i couldn't sleep last nite, cause a mosquito kept on biting me.

I got out of bed this morning, and i saw a fat slow mosquito (probably too full from blood) - and so i squished it.

Needless to say, after sucking my blood all last nite for a continous 6 hours - being squished made my hands wet - with my own blood.

if i do bad in physics , blame the mosquito - i had to drink a coffee - comprised of 8 spoons instant coffee. (as i hadn't had much sleep prior to that night, because of an unrelated sleeping problem)

My hair gets whiter, but its ok. its falling out too much for anyone to notice.

wait! if i have more hair turn white.. and all my black hair falls out, in no time - it'll be all white ^^

RSL

a mother of five killer her husband after hiding the the bushes in camo gear, armed with a rifle - equippted with a scope - the intent to hunt.

after years of physical, mental and sexual abuse - she camped out in a snipers nest for over and hour, and in indirect self defence - she shot him dead, six times.

I knew i shouldn't have gone, but i went to auburn RSL even though i was sick. i think i got sicker. great.

I wonder if one day - i will finally crack people, and they'll camp out, carefully checking their sights, and carefully pursuing a one shot, painful and horrendous one shot slow death kill in the eye socket.

SO BEAUTIFUL

pete murray - so beautiful.

Found myself just the other day

In the backyard of a friends place,

Thinkin' about you,Thinkin' of the crowd you're in,

What you up too where you been?(Just thinkin')

a year on..

And all the clothes that you wear,

And the colors in your hair

Shouldn't change you

I had a dream about the last day.

God my fingers burn,

Now when I think of touching your hair

You have changed so much that I don't know,

If I can call you and tell you I care

And I would love to bring you down,

Plant your feet back on the ground

I said goodbye - and i hoped i would never see you again.

Throw my smoke down on the ground,

Turn my head and I heard the sound,(That reminded me)

Of the days so young and sweet

Always so much fun to meet(At least I thought so)

I hoped that you would be gone forever

Now the scene that you're in,

And the people that you been with

Just get to me,But you think I'm not as cool,

As you are so beautiful

Well who you fooling?

I'm fooling myself by thinking that

Well I'm here to tell you babe

The game your in is just a game

So damn pretentious

Simply because of the fact that:

You think you're so beautiful

you're beautiful

sniffles

my hair is falling out by the clumpfull.

i don't know why - im not stressed or anything.

and infact, i think its getting whiter.

Im sitting here, minding my own buisness, while my page slowly gets covered by my hair.

On other notice - i walked home very cold, and sweating at the same time, while feeling the need to regurgitate my lunch.

Im very very sick. I have the sniffles too.
