I'm no good with this journal thing

Wed Aug 26, 2009, 8:35 AM
But I guess I should write here something once in a while.

Now the summer is slowly turning to autumn and I'm enjoying some free time before starting to study again. Which means that I'm trying to concentrate in the really interesting things like drawing, learning vertebrate anatomy and some botany before turning my attention to Swedish and statistics. Sigh.

I've been building a plant terrarium in an old aquarium for a while now. It doesn't look that good yet, but over time it should start resembling a miniature rainforest. There are pitcher plants, jewel orchids, ferns, radiator plants and others. I'm trying to get some more bromeliads too, but there aren't many of them for sale in Finland.

By the way, I finally got the cycad tree I've been hoping. It's (probably) a sago cycad, Cycas revoluta, and a fascinating little plant indeed.

Well, I´ll write here again in about half a year.

  • Mood: Lazy
  • Listening to: silence
  • Reading: vertebrate anatomy and various popular science
  • Watching: my plant terrarium
  • Playing: nothing, really
  • Eating: considering eating spaghetti
  • Drinking: home made white currant juice

"In science it often happens that scientists say, 'You know that's a really good argument; my position is mistaken' [...]. I cannot recall the last time something like that happened in politics or religion."

Uh... not that I wouldn't keep my eye out for your speculative biology ;)

Thanks! :D
I'd love to upload more speculative evolution art, but haven't had time to focus on it for a long time. Just be patient, there will be some. :)
