Am mong mong

ngiau choo kong, wa lang chau kee choi ah kong..

Ok, for those who don't understand hokkien, the title means :
Very very, dark..

Why very very dark? Because lotsa places in NSW had blackouts yesterday night. .which lasted till today.. That's because the winds were very very strong, and it uprooted some trees which then decided to crash onto the powerlines..

That happened to a tree just like 20 metres down the road in front of my house.. which made my house am mong mong..

I'm weird, cos I sometimes find blackouts quite fun.. very exciting.. yea.. cos its am mong mong..

There are already some bushfires going on.. In spring!!! Can't imagine how summer would be like..somemore I'm staying near a high-risk area..or issit IN the area? no idea.. SMH says "Meanwhile a bushfire expert has warned Australia is on the brink of a horror bushfire season."
sigh...

Had an emo weekend indeed.. goo goo ga ga

yeah, if you don't know hokkien, you learnt a new word today..
am mong mong...

thanks rene for telling me about the ang! ;)

The holidays beckons..

Ahhhh... feeling quite free now! Sorry for the slow-mo update! Just finished my last assignment before my holidays.. It was a client handout sheet about ferrets.. Just thought I'll pop a picture of them up here before I clean up any traces of assignments in my laptop.Cute lil things aren't they?? I so wanna have one.. but can't really at the moment.. maybe next time hey?

Yup! Holidays are nearly here! Just 2 more days!! Really can't wait! Will be road-tripping down to Melbourne and stopping by Canberra for the Floriade on the way there. Should be fun aye? My very first road trip!! It's roughly about 9-10 hours drive, I think.. Haven't planned it out properly yet though..

2 more days of uni!! So many plans for the hols!
wheeeeeee.......

Treating Nemo..

Yeah.. for those who always ask me questions whether I learn about fish in my course.. Yes I do.. In fact, I'm learning about them now.. Becoming a fish vet can be quite fun , and *ka-ching* *ka-ching* well paid ! Besides, I'm really really interested in marine mammals and stuff.. who knows, I'll be a marine vet someday..

Why *ka-ching*? Well, some fishes are worth a LOT of money you see.. be it ornamental or aquaculture.. I learnt that a tuna fish.. yes, one tuna fish .. I don't know what type.. but it's those that they export to Japan for sushi, is worth a few thousand dollars!! The breeder would definitely be worried if he sees four or five of those tunas starting to swim funny.. and he calls the vet in.. and voila, the vet asks for a large sum of money.. smaller than what the breeder is about to lose la.. duh..

Had a fish practical yesterday... I learnt how to anaesthetise fish, and recover them back to normal.. Really amazing to see them konk out enough for you to do some procedures on them.. and then after a few minutes seeing them swimming around happily again! The other part of the prac involves dissecting barramundis.. Was so tempted to take some fillets back home to cook! such a waste.. but the barramundis weren't so fresh after all.. Do you know that a barramundi becomes a male after a certain age, and then swaps over to become a female at a later age? Now you know.. ho ho..

Ok ,I really need to study.. am having a 45% mid sem about ruminants on monday..
moo moo..
