To scare the crap out of someone. Which in my case, my rats. Sob* So poor thing. Teehee. I have been busy sniffing poo and piss in my lab the past 2 days. Not that I pick them up and smell their bum. But cause I've been measuring their blood pressure using a non-invasive tail cuff method. It's scary for them cause obviously they don't understand what I'm doing and it's a foreign thing to them. What I do is, I put (often times persuade) them into a transparent cylinder that exposes their tails and put the tail cuff measuring device around their tail and basically let them sit in this machine which can hold 6 rats at a time. Then the computer does its trick, bla bla bla pumps air bla bla bla and the receiver picks up the systolic blood pressure and heart rate. TADA! Unfortunately, my little rats get scared when the tail cuff tightens. So they crap a lot A LOT AAAAA LOTTTTTT and pee all over. Till I feel like my hair smells of pee. EWW. Nolar. JK. But each rat poopes about 4-6 biji of shit. And it's the lau sai kinda colour (greenish) So, quite gross lar. And if they poop on the machine, i gota pick it up (I wear gloves, don't worry) and throw it into the bin. And if they move a bit then the measurement is inaccurate so I gota measure again.....and again....and maybe again...AGAEEEEIN....
I didn't realise that the measurements must be done around the same time, so it means I can't finish everything today. Gota come in tomorrow around 9ish to finito the rest. WOOT* 6 more to go. TEEhee..I'm so sleepy. I had a weeeeeeird dream. I shouldn't really blog about it due to ethical reasons. AHAHA. I might tell u if i can remember, or if you ask. AHHAHA. That's why I'm a Sleepy lala* today. Woke up from the dream feeling so EEWWW-ed about it. BWAHHAHA.
I duno what's wrong with me. I have my moments when I'm just BWAHHAHAHA and moments when it's just *hear crickets in the background. Then again, I'm rarely quiet. Except when I'm hungry, angry or just too tired to make any more sound. Must conserve energy mar. Aiks. Talking nonsense already. BWAH.
Reminder to self: Shouldn't overeat cause the stomach feels like it's exploding! Booooof* (Spilled guts) BWHWHAHHAHAAHA. Oh no, I'm going nuts!
