Smiley face in sky 2


Looks like Venus and Jupiter are starting to make their move on the crescent shaped moon !! Can you spot the elongated smiley face, hopefully by tomorrow they will rotate closer together and look more like a smiley face :D This is outside my house on the island!!

SMILEY FACE IN SKY


Omg, read this article:

Nov 30, 2008

On Monday night Venus, Jupiter and a three-day-old crescent Moon, will appear as a smiley face above the western horizon.

How awesome is that? planets aligned in the shape of a smiley face!!! Hopefully I will be able to catch a glimpse of it!!

Fabric painting

I am stuck on my precious island home, with no friends and super slow internet. I am so bored and I have 2 weeks left to survive! Desperates means has lead to desperate measures so I was rummaging through my old junk and I discovered A FABRIC PAINTING KIT that I'd received for Christmas quite a few years ago. The paint was basically all dried out so I added some water to try and revive it. Here is my attempt to paint on fabric:

Mike and Ike's

After watching this horrible youtube video (because it's super annoying) from Mad Tv - can I have ur number There was a bit where Darrel asks the lady, "Do you like Mikeandikes?" and I always wondered what he meant by that...I was thinking of nike shoes tbh but me and Robbie saw Mike&Ike's at the Reject shop and thought we'd try it out and DAMN IT'S DELICIOUS!!!
We had the Zours version, there are quite a few types. A-Must-Try!!

Crash!!

While me and Rob were driving back home on Friday night from utopia, we spotted a car crash on Murdoch Dve just near the police station and SJOG hospital. Rob was like, "Let's have a look, see if we can give them a hand" and there was a lady that was crying and the two little kids like age 1- 2 and she was shouting, asking us to take her kids and look after them so rob picked one up and this other guy that was there picked the other one up. There was another car that had come to help, they called the ambulance and the police. The lady had crashed into a power line pole thing and it had bent inwards and one of the wires was hangin really low so it was quite dangerous. The lady was like, Don't call the cops, they'll put me in jail and take aaway my babies! She had sprained or injured her ankle pretty badly and she couldn't walk. The cops came first and they used a breath analyser thingo and she wayy over the limit and she didn't have her license, soo it was pretty bad! Fortunately no one was severely injured and the ambulance came to take her to the hospital. The kids were sooo cute!! The one that rob was holding had really taken a liking to him and when the nurse tried to take her off him, she was like hugging rob really tight and she cried and kicked and screamed :D That was our excitement for the night!

Rabbit update

Unfortunately, Sunshine's anticipated birth didn't produce any orange offsprings so I've decided to get a frost-point bunny instead. The frost point means that the extremes (points) of the body i.e. nose, ears, feet and tail are coloured by a bluey-grey colour while the rest of the body is cream/white.


EXAMPLE BUNNY COLOUR

I will be able to pick up the bunny around January the 9th but will know closer to the date! :D I CAN'T WAIT TO GET MY RABBIT!!!

Danni's 21st




So the plan was to spend the day at the beach for Danni's 21st but Jana rang up and told us it would be raining when it was clear blue skies where we were at. "Change of plan, guys," instead we were going to have a picnic inside Jana's house! Danni asked for penis-related gifts so me and Robbie purchased 'Jelly willies' which is like gummy jelly penises that actually taste quite nice despite its penis-shape.

Laura bought a candle that lit up green! She thought it would change colours but it didn't. Danni's boyfriend was working that day but he came for lunch and surprised her. He gave her a ticket to Phuket for ten nights! How exciting, I think everyone else was more excited than her though, haha.




Anyways it turned out that it wasn't going to rain and the skies were bluer than ever, so we headed to hilaries for fish and chips and checked out the boats. It was nice and sunny, and we fed the seagulls some chippies!




After some fun in the sun, we went back to Jana's and sucked some helium :D. Here's laura singing a song:

Roses are red


Violets are blue, sugar is sweet and so are you....

but the roses are wilting and the violets are dead, the sugar bowl's empty and so is your head.
Mmm..yes..random poem I remembered, on another note, my rose bushes have been blooming and I thought I'd take a picture of em'.
Above we have my big fat red roses, they are really huge! Seriously!! and below is my pinky orange roses and a pink rose bush as well. At Fel's house the other day, I saw one of my favourite roses. It's called 'Double Delight' because it has a stunning pink and white mix as well as its delightful scent! She also has a yellow and red mixed rose which was quite interesting because there was one that was all yellow with one red petal!!
Along with the beauty of the rose, it also has its medicinal purposes.
The herbal side of roses:
  • Rose petals are used as tea leaves to treat sore throats and used as an ingredient in many cold syrups
  • Roses have antidepressant, antiseptic, antiviral, and antispasmodic qualities
  • Lotions and creams made with roses have is good for anti-aging, dry or inflammed skin
  • Rose essential oil is used for treatment of anxiety and depression

A trip to Mundaring

No, this entry has nothing to do with Lil' Caesars as much as I would like to gulp down a dessert pizza... Ok I lied, we tried going there but it didn't open til 4pm so we went home..

But before all that... MY RABBIT TRIP TO CHECK OUR BABY BUNNIES!!!! with Robert and Felicia!! So I finally get to check out my baby bunnies, after a handful of emails, but they didn't have any orange babies in the litter, so I'm waiting for the next lot of kits to arrive and hopefully there will be some orange babies!@!

This is me and a black bunny! The lady was really nice, I got to hold an even smaller bunny earlier and she kept giving me bunnies to hold and pet and take pictures of :D. Apparently the majority of the minilops in WA are all hers! She bred dwarf lops and the smallest of the lot was bred together and so on and so forth.

This is robbie with the black bunny, isn't he adorable! This was was ready to go, it's 8 weeks old, but I didn't want a black one, although it was so obedient and cute!!
If you lie a bunny straight on its back, you can put it in a trance, I've never seen this done before but the lady was showing us with another bunny. What you do is you hold its head firmly and lay it on its back and stroke its tummy and it will just lay there very still. She told us that with some bunnies, they would be so deep in a trance that you could perform procedures on it.
Another picture of bunny on its back.

I love this picture, the ears of the lop are the custest feature!

Felicia's rabbit doesn't like being held and the lady gave her some tips on how to handle the rabbit and train it to be obedient, etc. (Fel in a pen!)

Orange butteryfly babies!!! I WANTTT!!! but they were already reserved. She had 39 bookings and 20 rabbits to sell haha. The white bunny with the black ears and eyes and nose is because she bred two butterfly bunnies together.

Black butterfly bunnies!!! how cute! it's like the bunny version of dalmations!


Ahhh, not only did the rabbit lady have bunnies, she also had different breeds of cats (British shorthair, scotish fold, ragdoll, can't remember the rest) as well as these chickens that had the prettiest feathers. She had a puffy chicken and this other one that looked all puffed up, didn't take pictures, but it was really cute.

Kitten litter, how tiny are they?

This is one of my favourite pictures, they are so photogenic, such a kodak moment. It'll make a great calender pic! They all have blue eyes!! (Ragdoll kittens)

Christmas in Perth begins

Ahhh.. two exams down, one to go! The next one being on next Thursday, I decided to celebrate the finishing of my two exams by heading to the city for some night shopping. Little did we know, the "Turning on the Christmas Lights" was on that night and Santa came strolling down the streets of Forrest Chase on his sleigh pulled my reindeers following a bunch of fairy ladies and the SUPER HOT GORGEOUS MEGAN GALE!!! (Proudly sponsored by David Jones) Yes, that's right, I saw a supermodel! woOt!

There was 100,000 lights and Christmas decorations (same ones as every year) up and about as well as a 13metre tall Christmas tree with 750 decorations. The pedestrian bridge on Murray Street had a gigantic red bow on it so go and check it out, the decorations will stick around until January 6th.

I must say I was rather disappointed when I went up to the balloon man in front of David Jones asking for a balloon he replied with "Sorry, we only give it out to little kids". DAMN YOU BALLOON MAN!! I'm a kid at heart :P

I had pictures taken on Robbie's phone, but he can't find his cables, so no piccies today!

Get ready for the clone wars

Cloned mice [BBC news]


The Japanese scientist have managed to clone mice from some mice bodies frozen for 16 years (Picture below). They're looking into cloning endangered species and mammoths, unsure if they are able to obtain intact nuclei from the cells. Soon the impossible would be a possibility and let the clone wars begin!

Rabbit clothing


I can't seem to find many sites with rabbit clothing so I researched into it and found that it may cause injury to the rabbit and find it irritatiing although some rabbits are ok with it. I still think it's cute though.. look at this picture i found on google images!

A rabbit's home

In anticipation to getting my new bunny, Robbie purchased my new bunny hutch!! It's 20 bucks extra for a pre-built hutch so we got the assembled pieces instead and built it ourselves!

My "Deluxe" Rabbit hutch - 2 storey with tray :D

It has two levels and is connected by the ramp that allows the rabbit to go upstairs! The bottom has a plastic lined tray and there are two access doors; one at the top and another at the bottom.


Ta daa! The finished product!!

Andd again, with the top door shut :D

I like the little love heart feature!

From a rabbit's perspective - looking up the ramp

The ramp again..
