fish fish fish

had a rather fishy day today... as in literally... xiang mentioned qianhu had a exhibition at bugis today and wanted to go check it out. declined at first but after deciding i wanted to get daddy a lcd monitor for his fathers' day gift gave in. so we circled the teeny exhibition... got him a log for his upcoming tank (he already has two, now waiting to start a third and yes, he REALLY likes fish).

last last week just went to aquarama with him and that's where he got his free one foot tank. took some pics of goldfish. this is the nicest one i found. it's huge! bigger than my whole hand!


and after we were at qianhu, i was feeling very generous and accompanied him to another fish shop which had his fav chichlids. i really need to learn to appreciate them. he's always asking if i think they're pretty, and i go 'errr... no...' trying... but they really aren't very pretty to me... one or two and passable... but as we realised today, i look at the fish in its entirety before i decide if it's nice.. for him, he looks for unique features, colours... oh well, whatever keeps him happy. =) so yeah.. he keeps wanting to buy me a baby tank of guppies... lol... but my qc very high... hard to find guppies that pass in my eyes. lol... the goldfish above was only one of the MANY at the exhibition. but i only found him/her cute. lol... but what do i know? lol...

caught ocean's 13... liked it. =)

but what i really liked today was that i got to spend time with xiang. he finally started his pupilage on 1st June, so i haven't seen him since Sunday. missed him... i guess i now know why couples still go out and squeeze with crowds yadayada on weekends. it's the only time they've got really. yet a new phase for us. will take getting use to.

been reading a lot this past week. partly cos i fell ill again. i've been falling ill fairly often. need to build up my immunity. but this one was pretty bad. my fever stayed at 39degrees celcius for quite some time. kept icing myself and was so afraid i'd get brain damage or something. but thank God after several hours of torture, it finally came down. the worst kind of fever is when u feel extremely hot and yet cold at the same time. u wanna kick of the blankets cos you're burning up and yet you're too cold to do that. so it's sheer torture! yuck yuck yuck... glad it's over... still nursing my cough tho. but way better now. =)
