Come on, where's my guardian angel when I need it?

OMG OMG OMG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!



Iam so freaked ok?! I can't believe I did something to an innocent animal!! Sigh...

I was trying to clip my lovebird (Murphy)'s toenails today. Ok, I knew it was very, as in VERY long, and sooner or later, the nails would get caught in the bars of the cage beacuse it was long. Just as I had placed the nail clipper( yes, it shares my nail clipper as well )at the nail, it made this sudden movement, trying to escape. It was when I made a desicion, a very bad desicion to try and clip the nail even if it was moving. Then guess what? I clipped its vein. U see, the nail can only be clipped at the very tip and I accidently clipped it to far. Yes it was squeaking, but it squeaks all the time so I didn't think anything was wrong until I saw like, 2 minute drops of blood on the floor and I thought, ok this is it.



I picked the bird up and realised that the tip of the nail where I had clipped was bleeding. Ok, you're thinking its no big deal. But it was a lot, ALOT of blood, and really, it wouldn't stop. Even after I applied pressure. Someone help.



Ok, then to cut a long story short, its fairly alright now, but I have to treat it like a delicate wind mobile. That means, no flying, no grabbing, no running up and down the inside of my shirt( yes it does that) , no acting like a alien stuck in a overturned plastic bowl, no playing for short.



Last but no least, if anyone knows of any remedies which can help the bird, pls pls pls pls pls....tag me. Iam really desperate, really really am.

birthdays-pains and pleasures

Its funny when they say," many happy returns of the day!" on your birthday. Its like they are wishing that you will only be happy on your birthday, when actual fact is that you should be happy everyday and 'live your life to the fullest'. Thing is, its not human to live like its a 'merry,little land' everyday and we all do feel annoyed or upset some certain day. Sometimes you just don't feel like talking to a certain person, or you just feel snappy when someone talks to you about 'crap' things. See, to err is a human. Some simply don't understand that fact. (eg. i baked a cake and burnt it on my 1st attempt and got a shelling). I don't get it. Others treat you well only on your birthday. What?! i can't be normal on other days?

But sometimes they do bring some good too. Besides the routine of eating cake, gifts, singing the all too familiar' happy birthday to you', you get that good feeling inside that , wow, this only occurs once a year, and you plus an extra candle to that cake. thing is, what really is the significance of the cake etc.? Iam betting that you don just eat a' something floured, baked with yeast- wow ! you get a cake! ' on your birthday. well sure, you don't buy that big a cake on normal days, but surely you eat bread, that's flour and yeast too.

Here's another thing, i refered to days which arent your birthday as' normal days', didnt i? Its like trying to say that having your birthday is abnormal, or should i say, special, if you want the optimistic way. GTG now. Going for AEP at 1.00
