In which Tori and Ingrid compromise on fish names


Today I did as I had promised Jupiter (pictured left) and got her some new friends. I went down to the pet shop and picked out a nice gold comet and wanted to call it Mercury but Ingrid wanted me to get a gold and white comet and call it Neptune so we compromised by buying both fish and therefore could keep both names. Jupiter was excited when I was floating the bag in the water and kept nibbling at the elastic as if she was trying to undo the bag and let out her new friends. She has been a bit sad lately since I took Pluto out of the big tank and put him in the hospital bowl next door. But now Jupiter, Mercury and Neptune are happily swimming around together along with the Three Musketeers and the Famous Five. Unfortunately Pluto is still sitting on the bottom of the hopital bowl only occasionally changing position.

On another note. I had my first exam today. It was on Antarctic Tourism and was fairly easy. The questions were all what do you think about x, why and justify your answer inrelation to a, b, and c. So I dont think there is too much that can go wrong.
Tomorrow morning is my EIA (Environmental Impact Assessment) exam and I think that should go ok too. So long as I can memorise few facts before tomorrow such as what does DEPHA stand for and when did the EPBC come into force and what is the difference between the process involved with a level 2 assessment as opposed to a level 3 assessment. Tonight may be a late night.
