truths in life...

yeah...i got this from the odyssey 2008...n i find them interesting...

a sad thing in life is when you meet someone who means a lot to you, only to find out in the end that it was never meant to be and you just have to let it go...

the best kind of friend is the kind that you can sit on a porch to swing with, never say a word and then walk away like it was the best conversation that you've ever had...

it's true that we don't know what we've got until we lost it, but it's also true that we don't know what we've been missing until it arrives...

it takes only a minute to have a crush on someone, an hour to like someone, and a day to love someone BUT it takes a lifetime to forget someone...

don't go for looks; they can deceive. Don't go for wealth; even that fades away. Go for someone who makes you smile because it takes only a smile to make a dark day seem bright.

always put yourself in someone else's shoes. If you feel that it hurts you, it probably hurts them too.

love begins with a smile, grows with a kiss and ends with a tear. When you were born, you were crying and everyone was smiling. Life your life so that when you die, you're the only one smiling while everyone around you is crying.

neway...i dunno why i've been feelin so stressed up lately...sigh...

oooh ya...guess wat was i spotted in my neighbourhood...i spotted a HORNBILL bird...haha...it was a hornbill...can you believe that we actually have hornbills flyin around my housing area...haha... my sister and i got kinda excited when we saw the bird...wanted to take a picture...but by the time i took my phone out...the bird flew away...saddening...

hmmm...we had interesting experiments this week...for bio...we did preservation of bugs...yup...big bugs and small bugs...let me roughly tell you the procedure of insect preservation...

for big insects...you have to first kill it with chloroform...then...we have to dissect the insect...yup...dissect an insect...hmm...we have to remove all the stuff in it's abdomen...and the stuff we removed ain't so pretty...there'll be this long thing that looks like an intestine...some other guey stuff...some eggs...some sac...n many other unidentified organs...we have to dig everything out to ensure the bug doesn't rot...yup...once the abdomen is empty...we soaked the bug in formalin...and then dry it a little...since the abdomen is empty...we replaced the contents in the abdomen with cotton...to give shape to that insect...yeah...then...we juz place it in the oven...and tada.....a preserved insect!!

for smaller insects...it's simple...just soak it in formalin and then place it in the oven...and you're done...yeah...tat's all bout insects preservation...
