a house with no anti-inflammatories \:S < eyebrow up emoticon
had my first continuous migraine bursts that woke me from sleep. now doing the end-of-practical quiz on myself, i guess i have acute meningitis leading to brain-itis. ie: recent (few hours) inflammation of the meninges (covering of the brain that has supplying blood vessels) leading to inflammation of the brain itself . having a diagnosis makes it sound way worse than just having a headache. i heard somewhere that migraines are actually your brain cells dying. and yes it is (kinda). but it's the reverse - injured first, then blood brings things to the dead area that cause pain, to help - no joke.

i can't sleep cos it hurts. and i'm hungry.

(btw, the cbox is now gone :( i guess one spam-ish site found it and now it spread... *tear*)

too much enrichment

for me, that is

bernie disappeared for like 15 minutes a few nights ago, and then suddenly reappeared..
and today i discovered that there's a space behind the garden bed and from there, is a gap underneath the fence! so i looked over the fence, and there he was hopping in the neighbour's yard. maybe our recently mowed lawn is not good enough. so i shook the rabbit food container and he squeezes back under the fence. thank goodness i have hungry rabbits. so that space is now blocked. hopefully there aren't anymore!

next: i see a lump of dried poo stuck to mimi's tail, so whilst trying to be swift & block her path to catch her, i rip a small hole in my favourite uniqlo jeans T__T but it's in a non-noticeable area, so i'll keep on wearing it. so after cutting the stuck poo off, i go back into the backyard, and there's a ginger cat with a collar on the neighbour's tree! it was so cute and seemed stuck, so i was calling to it and shaking the cat food container, and phoebe wasn't defensive/chasing it, so i assumed it was a girl cat. but then after it finally came down from the tree, i saw its balls. and my adoration level slightly decreased. i don't like roaming undesexed male cats.
he was eyeing the bunnies. so i had to put them in.

anyway.

here's a cute animation that was on a few minutes ago: Minuscule - worms in love




i'll be googling more when i'm not supposed to be studying x)

unwillingly housebound for the weekend doing the horse essay. coincidentally, watched an interesting tv show yesterday about horse-human relationships - ie. the heart-touching not disgust-inducing one - and a horse whisperer taught the presenter this technique that resembles how wild adult horses discipline younger horses, and by the end of it, his horse was following him around without a lead and seem to suddenly love him more! and the horse whisperer said that the horse is probably so relieved to have found someone who understands/communicates like one of their own species :'(

in other news: i've been too sleepy & lazy to put the rabbits in their hutch at night (after they roam the backyard during the day) and i guess they found another place to sleep at night - there is a huge ditch probably 50cm deep and a long pile of dug up sand behind it in the backyard. i shovelled the sand back in to fill the hole, but this morning it was deeper than the first time i saw it :/
touch wood they are still in my backyard relaxing, instead of extending a tunnel somewhere.

it was quite tiring, manual work. my palms are still sweating.

oh nooooo i think i can hear a scott pilgrim-sounding soundtrack coming from my brother's room!!! i don't want any spoilerssss!!!!!! shall confront.

*update: turned out to be kick ass. phew.

a scan of a koala that looks like a koala

either my right foot is growing or the pinky toe is expanding sidewards.
i hope i don't have to buy new shoes!

to do list:
start/finish POD q.
start/finish horse essay.
make POD notes.
make VCB notes.
watch scott pilgrim v's the world.

so very bored.

finished exam study for today.. in the middle of making another set of notes.. assignment to do next week, but don't wanna start because it's kinda related to the exam material and don't want it to push essential exam info out of my brain.
so anyway, here's a biscotti post :D

how's uni going (for those who want to know... *looks around. cricket chirp*)?
finally learning about disease processes, i'm starting to wonder how long it takes to feel like you know what you're doing. ie. when the way you problem-solve becomes a reflex.. can't come up with epiphanies all the time like dr. house. maybe when we actually learn about specific diseases? and then i wonder how many examples we're going to be given - and how much we're just gonna have to rely on the disease process..
for the short-term at least, i need to know how to do this for quizzes :(

good to know

i hate irrational feelings (an oxymoron, i know). especially on a day when both your eyelid folds are acting up. can't open your eye properly like when a fringe is forever covering your view. makes you feel pessimistic.
