Turtle BZZT!

This kind of happened some time ago, but whatever.

So I have turtles. Cool.
I have a water heater. Great.
I almost killed my turtles. NOT GOOD.

Last time I changed the waters for the tank, I forgot to turn off the heater. The heater was outside, burning hot, which caused the glass containing the heating machinery to break. What I didn't notice the next time I tried to grab my turtle, was that the heater has broken, and an electric current would run through me.

That was the first time I got electrified, and I'm like, "BZZT! Wow, so that's how it feels to get shocked!" It felt like as if your leg fell asleep, just that it's the whole body and it's much more astonishing.

What concerned me wasn't my condition. One of my turtles in the water jumped (literally), panicked, and started swimming like a retarded turtle. I turned off the heater and saw the turtle, which turned out to be OK. Good thing the electricity wasn't flowing when I wasn't touching the water. My turtles could have died.

Well, lucky me, I guess.
This incident left me being scared of being electrified every time I have to somehow touch the water in the turtle tank. Stuff like, 'What if the heater's broken again? What if the turtles die? What if I DIE?!'

Never mind. Sorry about that.

BZZT.☞

Sick...

Since 3 days ago, my stomach hurted every once in a while. Today was the worst. According to experts, I have amoeba. Oh, come on. I don't drink from the faucet and I wash my hands after using from the bathroom. If it's not amoeba, it's some weird intestinal thingy. I don't know. So anyways, I just came back from getting medicine.

Actually, today is the birthday of one of my friends. I'm supposed to be in the birthday party, with the 'supposed' being the key word. I couldn't go. I feel like sh** (in both ways) and I'm really sorry that I couldn't go. If you're reading this, I'm sorry, and happy birthday.

So I'm just home, eating my medicines and watching my turtles. Haha. They're adorable.
Anyways, not fun. Especially because I know I'm going to get better before Monday, which would indicate that I am going to school. Meh.

Turtles!!

So my internet didn't work for about four to five days. That's no Youtube, Facebook, MSN, Skype, online games, movie downloads, homework (no complaints there), or blogging for five days. It's quite hard to live with, or in this case, live without. Now I truly see the importance of internet, cellphones, and other recent technology.

Anyways, that's not as interesting as the following:
I bought turtles!! It's not just one turtle, it's two!! Not only that, they're BABY TURTLES!!!! (Yay.)

So yes, fun. Turtles.
So about them being baby turtles...
Can you possibly imagine how small they are? They are far smaller than the average turtle you would think of. I guess it's sort of hard to imagine, so I'm uploading a photo (happens to be the first one. Yay.) so that you can see how small and adorable that turtle is. By the way, if you have something against cute and small reptiles, refrain from seeing the following photo.

Turtles rock.
