as per the norm, studying is not working out very well. intertia. divorce. soon. byeeee.

and im still waiting on my guppy to give birth. which seems to be all im doing nowadays..
OH yesterday greta was in rotterdam! it was great seeing her again, and showing her around rotterdam was a little depressing, its not a very...touristy location. hurhur. is that why i was dreaming about eggs? teresa commented that it means im pregnant! which would be impossible. i think the trigger is the guppy birthings. and also easter. vaguely. still trying to map out how my mind works!
and here is the breakdown of the interesting part of the dream:
-luuk's 2 goldfish were pregnant, and in konoklova i saw 2 little goldfish swimming.
-they suddenly gave birth, and the old fat blue tailed female guppy i had was suddenly there and ate some of the fry
-so wanda and the net was to the rescue!
-and then somehow the fry literally went from in her mouth to out her butt. or what passes for a guppies butt. hmmmm.
at which time i then gave up on the dream and ironically, luuk makes eggs for breakfast! lekkerrrr ;)



so the present plan is that i would be flying off on fri morning to singaPOOP, then on sunday be in hk. my shopping list of stuff to bring to singapoop:
chunky pinderkaas
choc sprinkles
stroopwaffles

and im sure i will remember more stuff.......eventually.

presently the baby boy (who is no longer a baby) is in a plastic tub, on top of the radiator, being very isolated and sad and stressed and its tail is losing color, but i think if i put it in the main tank with the red female she would get verrrryyyy tired. and she is pregnant AGAIN.
right now she is in the breeding tank with the biggest of the fantastic 4.
present count of the luuk batch of fry is 17. 2 of them are small and runty and black and hide out around the potted plant and the gravel.
i soooo need to get another tank! that wayi can put the adults and the fantastic 4 together.

i was just watching the video conie compiled for laurane's 21st birthday. its so nice of her! and the whole vid is 19minutes long. like wowww. and laurane cried watching it!

yesterday:
sani's birthday party was awesome =]
i got her a card with candy in it, re-freezable ice cubes that are in the shape of red heels, and a box of alcohol. the gold dust thing!! GOLD STRIKE!
and i got lily this pack of mini jager meisters, with a belt to hold the little bottles in =]

the red female has given birth! and soo luckkkyyyyyy, luuk saw the babies and i managed to save a bunch of them. i think its 15 babies. the orginal 4 killed one. well the biggest of the 4 killed one, and i saw the mother slurp up one as well. =[

which i cannot see properly coz my contact lens need to be taken out.
and i am hungry.
did not eat dinner. not smart. and yet i am not getting any food coz its simply too cold o walk to the kitchen barefooted, so i am going to figure out where my slippers are. eventually. after i mention how an old laptop can make freaky sounds, figure out how long this flu thingy is going to last, and cure my fish of TB.
 

fish drama..the female with the big tail gave birth last night/early this morning. it began wth me spotting a dangling black thing from her anus. then realizing it was a tail, and that she was in labor! i spent time trying to google how long a guppy can be in labor for. but that didnt work very well..the internet was superrrr slow!
then about an hour later, i returned to the fishtank and spotted a fry hiding at the filter, and quickly netted it into the breeding tank! then this morning, i saw that the female was ALOT slimmer. and she was REALLY round before.
 i checked behind the filter and found another fry! which took awhile to rescue.. then my mother spotted another hiding in the corner, then after rescuing that one, i saw another dart from the gravel and almost get eaten by the purple tailed male!
right now the 4 of them are in the breeding tank, and the baby from last time is in the net, to stop him from harassing the yellow tailed female. which normally wouldnt be a problem, except she is pregnant and i spotted a red thing coming from her anus. so maybe he injured her!
the next pregnancy i am worried about is for the red female. i realllyyy want to see what her babies would look like!
right now she is REALLY pregnant, and it looks like she will give birth any day now. maybe i should transfer the fry to the net, and put her in the breeding tank and feed her till she drops her fry?
and i could put the male in the tub. or would it be too cold for him??

ahh problems. maybe i COULD get another fish tank....hmmmm!!!!!!


in other news, the marketing prof is not the old dutch guy! its this guy from lisbon! YAY. he is cool. sooo gladddddd.

here are my non-sleep reasons.


and then another:

yesterday i slept for 17 hours. and on saturday morning i have to pick up my mother who is coming to rotterdam to visit me.
just now i saw a pair of blue tits eating from the house bird feeder! and the peanut bag too..then later, this robin came and ate from the peanut bag, and my mother called as i was trying to take photos. right nowwww there is another tit eating from oohhh now there are two!!!oh wait there is another on a tree. hmmm. and why do they seem to prefer the peanut bag? the house has the ball thing, and millet, and sunflower seeds! im gonna try taking more photos..there is bad light though. and the ground is wet. and i still have to think of what to get for my mother's birthday present.

i was just looking at a news article from aim which involved outrageous proposals, so i was thinking, is there a reason other than being romantic for guys to do over the top things? presidents have honeymoon periods when they first get elected, so does that apply for men too? in a way...

and i know what the flowers are called. the one that smells good is a hyacinth, and the other bulbs are grape hyacinths! and now i just have to figure out how to get the hyacinth to stop leaning towards the middle of the room. i left the light on last night..and the leaning tower of hyacinth was founded. turning the basket this morning didnt get it to grow straight..

earlier, at the grote market, i got a bird feeder for 4 euros! and i hung it in the walkway. then i also added the bag of peanuts. if i ever have to reload it i would need to get a tall friend to help...and hope that the stuff doesnt get damaged by the weather..

flavor wave turbo oven! the commericals are fun to watch..hehe..unfortunately some of the products i've watched several times, almost had them memorized!

just nows micro was pretty doable. but i didnt have enough time! i guess if i hadnt needed to do mental sums for 20 minutes it would have been much better.

why did obama take away tuesday night's gossip girl?!




....ooohh damn. they dubbed kim possible in dutch!!!
