Silly Billy

It pains me greatly to see him moving around, leaning on one hand, the other hurting to much to put pressure on.

He climbs up his little blue cube gingerly using his legs to push his way up instead of leaping up the way he used to.

Even when he stands up, he doesn't swim in the air as much, and when he looks out of the cage, he uses his good hand for support.

He can't walk normally with one finger gone ):

He doesn't dare to walk down my arm, as he can't balance well enough now.

He doesn't recognise his name anymore.

I call him, no response. I lift up the cage lid, no response. Only when I lean above him and he feels my shadow, he looks up.

Has he gone deaf, I wonder.

I cry to see him but a shadow of what he used to be.

My Babies

I finally got to see my boys again! (:

I missed them all so much, especially my Silly Billy.

Anyway, I was told that Cappucino was attacked by Billy when he escaped into Cappu's tank, but I forgot to tell Miak in the email that Billy probably got bit by Cappu too!

The same as the incident with Hunny Bunny, no one cared about poor Billy... Cappu's wounds have scabbed over, but I picked up Billy to find that he was missing a finger and in its place was a bloody stub with fungus growing over it!!! )))))):

Heartbreak. Poor Billy... I think that after being the king of the castle at home, not being played with or loved made him a totally different hamster ): He doesn't respond to his name anymore, and he can't even recognise my hand's scent. Depressing... I shall have to play with him more again. Well at least he's alive.

Cappucino on the other hand is becoming more active which is good, probably due to lots of interaction at Miak's house. However he's losing weight unlike my other 2, hope he'll gain it back soon (:

Updates

1. I got a haircut. Its short. Not again you say. Sometimes I think that [ me + long hair = not meant to be ] This time, it wasn't from the boredom of growing it long, but I am going bald! I hope its an exaggeration, but my hair is trying to make up for lost time (as I rarely dropped hair in the past).
   
2. I went and returned from Canada. It was about a 3-weeks trip, will update about it.
3. Piano exam results are out. I don't want to know the outcome.

I wonder why I need bullets when I can't even remember what I wanted to blog about. I am tired. And it seems the doctor is right. I get agitated easily.

Today

Today I saw the most amazing sunset ever. The train was stopping at Jurong East. For no reason at all, I turned to look through the window behind me, and the sky was as if the flats were on fire. It was a blaze of red all over, with dark clouds looming above. As if in a trance, I ripped open a roll of Velvia 100F and tried to load it as quickly as possible into my FE2. I snapped off 2 shots, then I realised my ISO setting was incorrect. 2 shots on Velvia wasted - 60 cents gone. I quickly adjusted and fired off another 2 shots before the train moved on.

On the other hand, I got this beautiful A6 fabric notebook for my travels.
