My little sister just asked me to look something up online, I did and accidently said Africa instead of America. She laughs at this and mocks me. I then click onto the web page she needed then realised it's in Spanish. I know Spanish well enough to translate that page...BoB knows no Spanish (well maybe hola). Who is stupid now.
I did translate it eventually but made her feel like an idiot for a bit =P
Also uroshitsuji the opening changes in episode 17 (I think) though the song is still the same woot! And whilst Sebastian throwing a black rosei s all very romantic and nice etc, and I would not object to Sebastian giving me a balck rose at all.... the throwing cutlery is sooooo much more epic!! Yeah been catching up on Kuroshitsuji, now I have some time a bit of anime.
EDIT: Ok the cutleryness in episode 18...I am appeased. More throwing cutlery please xD
I say that, but tomorrow I'm off to Essex to visit my Gran in hospital,Wednesday seeing Ice Age 3, then Friday and Saturday working all day. I already got called in to work on Saturday for a few hours cause Nikki had to leave early for an emergency. YeY money and I'll be working with Shirley which is never a bad thing.
Oh to those I've just added on my f-list (well accepted your requests), sorry for being a bit slow in realising you've added me xD.
I have to catch a early train, therefore bed would be sensible. So back to interwebzing xD

| In Japan! |
[Jun. 20th, 2009|06:47 pm] |
Konichiwa everybody！
Japan is the awesome. I:m having so much fun, I do no twant to return but I want to see my family and friends again so you can all come to Japan please *nodnod*, time has gone so quickly. I can:t believ it:s only a week to go. Tomorrow I:m off travelling, starting in Hiroshima so I:ll be off to Hakata station later to sort that out. So exciting though I was really upset leaving people at the school but I have lots of emails and facebooks to keep in contact. Also another reason to return is Natalie said something about possible coming to England aka WINWINWIN!!! (Not that I:m not excited about seeing everyone else, I love you guys). I hope so. I was gonna suggest maybe we meet up in NY or something over Christmas as Hiroshi san is moving tehre in September and Nat;s been to NY for Chrismas breaks so I could see both. (Plus Hiroshi san will be working for a travel agent, useful prehaps). Also clever James got his ph.D so when I got up to Liverpool I will get to see Pam, Cal, Chris and whoever else is around but James said he:ll take a day or two off so we can go adventuring somewhere, I have stuff to return for, However I still want the Japanese garden.
Yeah so I am loving the history and culture of Japan, the temples, shrines, gardens and parks.I took part ina traditional tea ceremony and went to a temple wearing a yukata (I now have my own and know how to tie the obi). Amussingly the Japanese lady called me Twiggy because I was so thin and British, that:s quite something coming for such a slim nation xD.
The weather is also wonderful, I spent today having a bbq, getting buried, findいng star fish and having a good time at the beach! Despite being the rainy season it:s rained for 3 days max here. I:ve read some of your ljs but not all but will have a mass lj reading session when I return. I have been too bust\y to be online much xD.
Also Jacks+ Gravitation stuff is hard to find, though hopefully there will be some when I go a travelling.
I also saw fireflies have eaten some wonderful (and occasionally odd and not so wonderful) food. Hakata ramen = best thing ever.
Well now, short update to let you all know I:m alive and having a great time. I shall go enjoy my last night in Fukuoka (well ok tech I:ll be back here on Saturday as my flight leaves Sunday morning).
Loves to all, hope you:re well.

Hello all,
Just a small note to say that I am leaving for Japan on Saturday so I may not have a chance to update again before I go. I will try and update from Japan but no guareentees, please just assume I'm alive, well and having a good time unless you hear anything different.
I will be back on the 28th June so you'll probably get a rambling lj after that date about Japan and photos (I got a new camera today woot).
So all have a good time whatever you're up too ^_^
*loves*

P.S. ![[info]](http://l-stat.livejournal.com/img/userinfo.gif) psycho_glam you shall get at least one card my dear <3

| Exams are over and our kitchen's trashed! |
[May. 21st, 2009|12:46 pm] |
FREEDOM!!!
Yes someone may have just finished her last exam today, apart from one (American politics, any objections if I blow up America....nope good) they all went ok ^_^! So now to be a cheeky bitch =P in the past many people have linked to my lj for reports on stuff like shopping trips and concerts so here be a Sazzy being cheeky. Girugamesh = EPIC and Ryo is the win of life, plus Chris and I met Faizah who is awesomeness and Girugamesh are the win.And Dam I was gonna direct you to Chris's lj (I was not slacking) but I have been defeated by the f-lock >_< meh may have to do my own report then =P
I also won a compertition for a free makeover and photoshoot so off Pam and I went to Manchester (I got to take a friend along). It was soo much fun, I want to be a model, society should want models that look like me. Also I forgot to tell James that it was Monday I was having a makeover so then Pam text him a picture of me, and he got confused and his reaction was so funny when he saw me at the station and then my photos. We also went to Pam's house, where her mum was very impressed because we both looked gorgeous and also look really like sisters when we're all done up xD. Kittens are so big but still adorable, I want <333 (anyone want a kitty, methinks people I know should get the kittens and of course Darcey is mighty fine as ever. For the full report may I please direct you to the lj of Pam http://demichippings.livejournal.com/55696.html and may I take this oppurtunity to point out Pam is gorgeous and I was only finished before her because hair curlers take a while to put in and my hair only had to be straightend and I probably had more makeup on than her in the end. But anyway we both looked amazing (not that we don't normally).
Hopefully we're both be able to save up some money and buy more prints as they are very good, but very expensive >.<
Then today after my exam I was just wandering for a bit and got a call from flat management dude asking to see him so I did and found out our kitchen/lounge got trashed last night. O_o I left about midday yesterday then spent allday in the library before aquiring myself a James and going for foodums so got back around 8. Yeah Dan who has gone home gave his keys to another girl living here so her friends could stay over, yeah so he asked me if I had been around and if I'd heard any noise. I had been in my room revising all evening, never went out to the kitchen as I heard noise so assumed someone had thier friends round. They all came back late at night and drunk. This morning our lounge/flat completely trashed, curtain rails detached, chairs broken, stains and writting on wall, plates and glasses smashed, holes in the sofa cushions, floor well urgh, tv overturned...none of these people live in my flat. So now I have 5 people in the kitchen cleaning up and will be paying for all damages that they can't fix (this could be expensive for them...GOOD!). I popped my head round the door and despite people cleaning it, it's still a bombsite. This is one way of getting a clean kitchen and I'm glad I did go out for food last night (Yummy Italian Place on Bold Street people, highly reccommended). Hopefully it will be sorted sometime and I'm very glad I don't have to pay the costs as the management know it was nothing o do with me.
Even if it's not sorted to Wagamamas tonight for end of exam celebration ^____^ with Pam, Becci and possibly assorted others.
Btw I leave Liverpool on Monday, because my flight to Japan is Sat 30th and this si the only time my parents can bring me back. I will be in the AJ sometime Friday evening so please come and see me and give me hugs and other important Japan things or advice beforen I go. I will miss you all but will be back up for a few days around the begining of July for those who are still around.
I really can't beleive how soon my trip has come around. I think it's because I changed the dates, so I can work more in the summer. However this involves finding a job aka mission impossible, I've applied for lots heard nothing so probably back to temping, though I'm hoping Nikki will have something for me, even a few hours a week would be better than nowt.
Err now must have shower and sort out room because it's kinda been negelected with revision and all.
XxX
EDIT: The people who made the mess have gone and I've just spoken to the cleaners, the fuckers turned our fridge off so I've just thrown out everything because it's either covered in sauce or defrosted. They said I might be able to get soem compensation for the food. There wasn't too much in there thankfully but it is annoying as I was planning on using my food up in the past few days.
Urgh, they also thought that by turning the cushions over no one would realise the stains (eggs, sauces, vomit ewww) on them. Fortuantly the cleaners are giving it a proper clean now, the curtains won't be up for a bit, the fridge is a mess and now has no food in and there will be recarpeting ansd painting needed...oh and probably new sofa cushions. I am so glad I don't have to pay for this because it's gonna cost a fortune I'm glad I'm off to Wagamama's tonight as now I have very little food. |

YeYeYeY Hust brought my travel insurance and Japanese Rail Pass so now I am all sorted to go to Japan, well I have the tickets, first 3 weeks accomidation, passport well in date now I just need to sort out room, buy the travel book, get a clue and a list of hotels/hostels in places I will hopefully be visiting.
Fortuantly my travel insurance was no horrendously expensive, a bit priceier than average but not the sill rocket high prices some insureres were trying to charge me because I have asthma so that's all good. Now I just need to get my brain in gear/and or forget about Japan till exams are over.
I was also told by James and Chris today whom I met for most fun luncheons...I almost got to take Jim clothes shopping for some clothes that are not tent, the sleve of one of his tops today fitted both mine and Chris's arm in it *pets*. He says I can take him sometime cause something came up in the labs. Muhahahaha, I know he likes baggy clothes, but there's baggy and then there's sacks. No I'm not being an over controlling girlfriend, he needs some new clothes (he admitted that) and plus I'm sure anyone who saw the size of his top today would agree. Will bring him cake to make up for it - therefpore all's fair in love and war <333.
Well 50% of the exam done, one yesterday and one today urgh! x__X no more till Tuesday woot, the two I've done could have gone better but could have gone sooooo much worse! At least they are over! I had some mind blanks which were not apprciated. Oh well 2 down, 2 to go.
Also to London this weekend for Girugamesh aka band of win, Chris found a set list, soooo glad that they're playing Breakdown <333 song of win!!!! Plus it's my fave on Music <3
Oh I just realised I forgot to say what Chris and Jim told me, they're not going to throw me a "goodbye have fun in Japan party", no. I have to throw them a "Bitch, you're buggering off to Japan and not taking us with you party" (hey guys if I could afford to take you I would). So rest assured it will be done...or at least we're do something! May have a stupid theme for it though....make you all come as geishas, or chopsticks, or pagondas?? Will work details out later. May possibly even bake more cake for it.
On the subject of cake, there was a Somerset party at Pam's on Saturday (I say party but it was just a gathering of a few of us because there's only so much taking over Pam's house we can do). With some amusing advice via my facebook status I baked cakes. I made the chocolate and vanilla marble cupcakes that I had made at Christmas, was informed they were good as I never actually ate one. I also made a spiced apple and cider cake which using a combination of other recipies and a lot of guess work I created and awesome cake, it's so nice. I think I've also invented cider icing, never heard of it before or found it....hmm possible. Anyway my cider cake is epic!!
And James has just called so I'm dissappearing. Good lucks with all your exams/procrastionations/experiments/jobs/schools/life/others

Urghy, the f-list seems to be either sad or emo today. Sazzy is also feeling emo. Maybe bad weather makes me emo.
However just seen Rach's Japan photos on facebook, I now want to go to Tokyo, theoretically I can get to Tokyo...
Wish I had stayed in bed today, bed was warm. Will be back home soon, have no bread :( but want cheese on toast. I likes bread. Could work, but fortuantly James supplied me with a new power cord for my laptop, which might be temporary but for the moment who cares I has computer! Then we proceeded to unscrew the connection thingy from the wall and with some amazing jiggery pokery I now had internet back. The thing is still hanging out it's socket and thus will reamain so until I leave. Paper clips are useful ^_^. Could catch up on everything I missed, I've been checking emails and facebook/lj but there's blogs and funny sites and procrastinating sites and other amusing stuff to look at. Yesterday was good we had a Sunday Roast dinner and chocolate puddings, it was noms noms. Then we went to see the film Coraline. It was good, personally I found the visuals more engaging than the script (not that it was a bad script, could have been improved but did have a talking cat) and the herorine, Coraline was rather funky. I also approve of her liking of mango milkshake and chocolate cake. Think we're going to see the Star Trek films soon and I also quite want to see Wolverine film which may happen soon.
I want to emo now, but whilst I still have stuff I wanna emo about, to save your f-list I shall not. I'm sure I would not be emoing if i was in a less bad mood. I want cheese on toast... ifI cannot find bed lets hope I have spaghetti.
Going to Japan soon, travel insurance nearly sorted, also need JRP. Not everyone is that happy I'm disapearing to Japan (but boy who's day I will make with ryuu and then involved Light and L and cake and birthday and 10 years is very much looking forward to my visit) so to solve this problem....I shall vanish and hide....in Japan.
Should pass exams before going to Japan though.... should work... lets go look for bread <3.
Pointless entry is pointless?

[May. 2nd, 2009|01:51 pm] |
Hello world.
Yeah, whilst i brought a new interwebs cable the computer power cord is being a bitch which is very annoying as I brought it a few weeks ago so back to uni stealage of computers.
As I don't get to see all of my f-list *pouts* to say this in person: I'M GOING TO JAPAN IN JUNE AHHHH!!!!
And breath....*is currently spazzing out to Sian via msn*....
I'm staying in Fukuoka for three weeks where I'll be learning Japanese in the mornings and I'm also intending to go to South Korea for a weekend as i can get a boat there and I can't be that close and not go.
Then the last week I shall travel around Japan, definatly decided I'm going to Hiroshima, Osaka and must go to Kyoto. Any other suggestions?
So yep I will be away all of June pretty much (well I get back for like tha last day I think)
It will be amazing...wtf am I doing!?!? I love my adventourous streak. I have aqquired a travel bug and have a feeling i will never get over it.
I think I'm gonnas have to get a bigger suitcase cause I have had so many requests for presents...I am gonna have to take other stuff though...like clothes xD
That's my big news over with.
Last night was fun. I got drunk for the first time in ages lol.
It was the AU ball and i went with karate so we started off in the Aldelphi (posh hotel in Liverpool) where we had the meal...lots of wine...it was nice wine Sazzy had lots. I also had top collect my award for full colours which i'm not quite sure what it means, I think it's because I've represented the uni in a compertition. But now have a shiney badge to sew onto my gi... or stick onto my pegboard.
Funnyness included: the boys being bouncers, me getting past the bouncers, where's Amy gone and the balloon. Oh and mdf xD
Then we went clubbing, lots of alcohol, lots of fun and dancing. Fun times. Amusingly I stayed out the latest with Kat and Craig before taking drunk Kat home. Then today Ste and i were the only ones who turned up for training. So we didn't have a session hence why I is on the interwebs now before heading round to Jim's later.
I also love my mum because I have no hangover and I inherited this amazing power form her. best thing to inherit ever!!!
I also went shopping on someday, with Pam, Becci and Callum. It was fun. Pam has a strange affect on me...I only ever buy girly clothes when she's with me. I brought a skirt, blue summer top, to cardigans, a t-shirt and some vest tops. YeY for stuff <3
Loves to you all

Ahhhhhh where has time gone and why am I now looking at third year modules O_O why is September going to mean the start of my final year at uni DO NOT WANT!!!
Also why are the politics modules so much more organised than communication modules. The politics people even have a provisional timetable and well more choice than comms. Also dam why can't I do a master module because it's in political marketing and I'm good at that dam you master students who get to do module of win!
Also not sure if I want to do a dissertation...well I don't. However if I go onto further study like a Masters or a Phd then a dissertation will prove very useful. I'd like to graduate and get a job, however with the economy being so bad atm this could be problematic so further study then getting a phd could be the way to go.
So far I've registered for Asian International relations politicamijiggys and British press and broadcasting. Only 90 more credits needed so I have time to decide as the deadline not for a while. I am also avoiding anything to do with Irish politics, especially Northern Ireland as it is still the most confusing thing ever (well one of them).
I could do a module on Nordicnavia again..ahhh bless that word. Can you still pass if you make up words in your finals?
Also completed my plan today.... Excellent =D

OMG I've made no entry in a week *le shock* xD *EDIT: Actually I typed this yesterday, then the computer failed so I decided to stuff it and I'll go to bed*
Hello world *waves*
Last week and this week have been fun I've been doing work expireince in my MP's constituency office, it's surprisingly good fun!
My MP is Jeremy Brown (aka Jezza he has been nicknamed) who fortuantly is a very good MP (and you don't get me saying that about many MPs), it also means I get a good MP hahaha! He's not around this week as he's in Parliament but was around all of last week. He's probably glad to escape me, yes I am cheeky to my MP and like asking awqward political questions....hehe well I'm not too bad (if it was a bad MP then I would be such a bitch) and he doesn't mind, plus it's good that it shows that I'm interested in him and his parties (Lib Dem) politics xD. I can also speed shread, but have been doing more interesting stuff. I met Nick Clegg (Liberal Democrats Leader) and there is an amusing story about my recyling box which I shall now tell you. As the County Council (and European Parliament) elections are coming up Cleggy was visiting the South West including Taunton and the council introduced the green box scheme to receycle paper, which was then extended to glass, clothes and cans (possibly some other stuff too). If the Lib Dems have control of the next council they want to include cardboard and plastic recycling. So for a photograph and small speach Ollie (works in office Constituency Agent - rather want his job) brought in some plastic and cardboard. Then they all realised none of them had brought in a green recyclin box (LOL) with an hour before Clegg arrived. So I became the saviour by offering mine, surprising my mum by turning up at home and then had to explain the recycle box saga. Nick got his photo with my recycling box which can be seen here http://www.facebook.com/home.php?ref=logo#/photo.php?pid=1802954&id=575527195&ref=mf (yes I am friends with my MP on facebook xD). Cleegy was nice, though I didn't get to speak to him for very long and looks better in person than he did on the tv that night.
I went to a presentation things with the Princes Trust which was rather amusing and resulted in free cake (WIN)! I've been dictating letters (muhahaha I make stuff sound good), been laughing at some of the idiots who ask us questions and been having a good time.
Today was mucho fun as a member who's been very involvede with the Lib Dems for years was leaving to go to Cyprus. I made the food look good, I'm very creative when it comes to presentation (I didn't have to help but I wanted to). I bet the celery and carrots (we did have lots of unhealthy food too) would so not have dissapeared if I hadn't created a star with celery sticks with carrots sticks on them surrounded by yummy bread things. I also made a fort out of cheese and biscuits and well made everything look good and snacked on grapes. I do like this sort of stuff. I also got provided with free wine so free food and wine = WIN!! (Otherwise I do do work). I met lots of interesting people and got some very good advice. I also surprised alot of people when I said I wasn't a member of any political party, but they were nice people who seemed impressed by me and we also had a mutual hatred of the BNP *shudders*.
With the council and European elections coming up there has been lots of election stuff going on in the office so I keep meeting councillers and potential councillors. They better win because otherwise all those leaflets I was doing will have been for nothing.
There are some stupid constituents, like one who asked us "Why do immigrants all have expensive cars?" asking because she had seen "a woman of colour" in a nice car earlier. *Headdesk*.
Also the people I work with are rather cool, especially as I got to blast J-rock round the MPs office.... Yes I am that good.
Hehehe Wendy said go to youtube and put some music on, whatever I normally listen to so I did a combination of music in English and Japanese and they really likie Vidoll YeY!!! Today (now Tuesday) with had some BoB Marley playing and they're pretty informal.
My MP made me a cup of tea...it was very good, Jezza can make them, Val can't. Monday I had two cups of tea in 20 minutes... Ollie told me today that he has chemically altered me to drink more tea...I've had 10 cups this year already ahhhh!!!
Jeremy said he'll take me to Parliament sometime, I wanted tot go up for the budget but there wouldn't have been enough time to get me a sercurity pass to all the fun part of Parliament (aka the places I'm not meant to go). So I'm thinking after my exams. He's in Parliamenrt atm but is back on Friday so I'll ask him then.
I'm almost tempted to try getting some work expeirence with some MPs I don't like just so I can be evils to them (however in my letter I would say II supported thier parties policies etc). That's mean isn't it....hmmm.
Also 2 out of 3 parts of my plan are complete. Origionally this plan only had two parts but it's aqquired and extra part now. However fortuantly stage 3 isn't vital but would be useful xD. I also am looking for jobs for after I graduate just to see what's around... I am liking some of these saleries, of course I would get a low salery to start with but give it a while and hopefully I can has lots of moneies and travel the world. However have a way to go before that and finidng a job if I don't do a masters/phd will not be that easy, but at least this has given me more of an idea into what sectors I want to go into, or what I hope to do eventually.
I took my little sister bowling and for pizza on Monday as she complained I hadn't done anything with her this holiday (working). It was fun and now we have free games of bowling win win.
I must really get on with some revision and reading All the Presidents Men.Dam why can't working count as revision and I can just do my exams on fighting with Ollie for chocolate and life in a constituency office >_<.
Loves to all

Hello lj, it’s been a while. Yeah there’s not been a proper update from me in a while. The past few weeks have been hectic because of end of term deadline and life in general on Friday after I handed in the last piece of coursework I had a lecture then went back home and crashed. I only got woken up by a phonecall (which was good as there was some place I was meant to be) but otherwise I don’t think I would have woken up for ages. Then I was in Liverpool (but on holiday) Saturday - Tuesday but the internet at my flat hasn’t been working plus I’ve been doing stuff these past days. So now I am at home in Taunton (though was about 40mins late dam train >_>). I arrived yesterday night but my dad had to install some anti virus stuff till this evening so this is my first proper time on the interwebs for a while. I'll try and read/comment on your lj enteries. Tell me if I've missed something important So lets see stuff that I’ve been up to that isn’t coursework… Being a pyrate, passing my karate grading, An Café, London, Williamson’s Tunnels, milkshake and various others.
( Karate Pyrate Sazzy )
( An Cafe and London =D )
( Williamson's Tunnels and Milkshake )
( Home...or getting there )
I'm also reading a book called "Other people's money" by Neil Forsyth and Elliot Castro about a Elliot Castro himself who was very clever but from a working class background, either got expelled or left any schools he went to with no qualifications. Yet between the ages of 16 and 22 he worked out how to do credit card fraud and travelled round the world, between stretches of prison (you wouldn't believe what he was in prison for the first time.... it wasn't credit card fraud), escapng from police, credit card companies and airline and had some very good times. It's really interesting and I know he's a criminal and I would feel different if he had stolen my money (though banks normally have insurance for that) but gosh he was smart and heck he achieved his dream of seeing the world. A short career as a fraudster but profitable and a 16 year old with no qualifications outwitting some of the biggest banks, credit card companies and various police forces in the world. It's a very good read and I do admire his attitude at various points.
So yeah shoudl transfer money and then go to sleep. I'm seeing Rach and possibly Scott and Lewi tomorrow who are a few of the people I still actually have contact with from college which should be really fun ^^.
Hope you're all having good holidays (or workings or whatevers)

Anhh I have just handed in my final piece of work before the holidays. I'm freeeeeeeee! Hi life, nice to see you again, I know it's been a while.
I also got 70% on a p[iece of work I did, I had to write an abstract (summary like thing) on a book. I couldn't get hold of the book in time so wrote it without the book and just read blurbs and reviews. this means either:
A. I'm awesome
B. Phd students aren't very good markers
XD Not that I am complaining in the slightest and before you insult my course, the rest of my work is marked accuratly and normally has far more researched involved. Or maybe I just write good abstracts as I had never written one before. It's 7.5% of my final mark for the module.
( I haven't done a meme in a while so here's a meme....enjoy )
I am hungry... for flapjack, although I have grapes here and spaghetti but have nothing to cook it on. I should read the srticle and then go and get delicious flapjack. I shall also have to do a long update on An Cafe, London, things I've seen recently and the life in general.
Oh i don't know if I said this but I passed my Karate grading, green belt Sazzy ftw! I'm going home on Tuesday, I think my friends should come with me xD

I am alive, I've just been incredible busy recently but hopefully will be able to give you all a proper update soon.
By the way does anyone know how to either stop time, or create more hours in the day?
Take care

Oh what a wonderful day, except for I have to clean the kitchen for the impromtu fajhita party which is annoying as it is not my mess, but it would be imposible (and highly unhygenic) to make any food in it's current state. Dam I want to be enjoying the sunshine, but have to clean >_< but the fajhitas (I think that's how you spell that word, it's better than my earlier attempt of "fajehtaitas") will be fantabulous.
In other fantastic news, Steven Gerrard's assult charge has been dropped woot woot.
I hope I can find enough plates for tonight xD Friday seems like it will be better than the rest of the week has been.
Also aren't Chinese people clever, thier word for cat is "maow" which sounds just like a cat noise. Super cute word. Yeah I was talking with Candy (one of my Chinese friends) again today.
Right now to vaguelly clean the kitchen ish before the MishMash, then a bit more cleaning if it's needed, then fajhitas, then Pixy Stixs Time LAS. Yes to clean. There's also been no update on Robo Croc so I'm going to assume he's doing well <33
Yeah I'd rather be in the sunshine eating ice cream too grrr. I really don't like the people I live with.

I was wanting (and still am) a new desktop background as I've had my current one for ages now. I decided I wanted something cute, so Sazzy being Sazzy goes to google images and types in crocodile. They are my favourite animals and I think they are cute.
I came across this rather heartwarming story of Robo Croc http://www.miamiherald.com/news/miami-dade/story/955241.html
Yes, you are reading right America does have crocodiles. Whilst the American aligator is far more common in America, and is featured in the press more often because of alligator attacks and in the past century has been competeing for terroritory with humans (dear humans if you don't want alligators living in your lake, stop destorying their habitat because thats why they keep coming in to contact with humans). If this had been an American aligator, sadly it would have been killed because any gator over a certain size that comes into contact with humans wether threatenly or not is destroyed.
The American crocodile however is an endagered species and thus they tried to save RoboCroc. They only did the operation today but I'll be checking up to see if he survives, hopefully he will because crocs sure are tough and even if he doesn't chances are his death will be quicker and less painful than the inevitable dying of starvation (or possibly infection) that would have occured. Especially as crocodillians can go up to 2 years without food.
I also recently watched a video on crocodiles going blind in centeral America (the strip that joins North and South America) because of pollution in rivers this is sad. Crocs eyes are perfectly adapted for thier environment so loosing thier vision is very bad for them. Fortuantly there are people trying to improve the situation and help all the wildlife and not just the crocs.
Also recent;y reported that the second child in 5 months died in Australia from a crocodille attack, whilst this is very sad both children were allowed to swim in rivers in the Northern territory aka croc land. The second child's parents let her go swimming in a river and weren't even keeping an eye on her. Seriously why are people blaming crocodilles when parents let thier children swim in known croc terroritories, saltwater crocodiles (there are also freshwater crocodiles in Australia which are smaller and less likely to attack humans) are the largest and most dangerous reptiles in the world. Chances are these crocs took the swimming children as a threat to thier terrortory. Moral of the rant: If you or someone you know don't want to be eaten by crocodilles DO NOT go swimming in rivers in the Northern Territory of Australia, especially when the rivers are known to have crocodille populations.
Yeah I'm on the side of the crocodilles, though most the human/crocodillian conflicts are mainly the faults of humans.
However when a python tries to take on an alligator well.... http://news.mongabay.com/2005/1005-gator.html see for yourself.
This was not what I was going to write about in the slightest and I still haven't found a new wallpaper. I saw W;t the play earlier which was absolutly fantastic, very moving and amazing preformances by all. I'll write about it more another time (when I'm not talking about croccies).
Also my recent song obsession is Everytime We Touch by Cascada http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GUsb5HP7Ajg (pretty rubbish video but I like the song and fortuantly I have it on a cd Natalie sent me).

EDIT: Ok there were so many cute pictures of crocs that I just couldn't decide so I've ended up with this just as adorable baby rhino http://www.paigntonzoo.org.uk/UserFiles/Image/wallpapers/zuri-1024.jpg <333 (that I've actually seen because I've been to Paignton Zoo). I will have a croc wallpaper another time, I change them often enough anyway. |

I just though "Hmmm I really want cake" then remebered that I had cake in my bag! I love it when this happens. It should happen more often.
Essay has a loooong way to go ;__; it will get done though.
