Camel Jump

Yesterday I visited the garden to gather some cuttings from the Cananga Fruiticosa. I have plans for this particular plant, but I will not make them known here. Apparently I took five cuttings from branches exhibiting vegetative growth (not flowering); I doubt all will take root. Another plant I have targeted is the sugar cane.

While at the garden I was quite distracted by the numerous snails sliming around. It had just rained heavily after a few dry days, so it was some fiesta. Stepping on some, I realised that there were so many snails that I might as well put them into a line-up for execution. Ya, call me a snail nazi; I smacked them one by one with a stone and threw their bodies into the compost bin. Altogether maybe about 20 snails were destroyed, interestingly I saw one with eggs (after cracking the shell, of course).


My bruised knee seems to be taking a while to heal. I have refused to bandage it, and pure scabs aren't forming all over yet. It seems then that I cannot practice 2.4km, so I'll take this opportunity to focus on working my arms. Perhaps I can reach 7 pull-ups by August.


Church camp is just over, and I did not attend it. I'll may end up missing the next 2 years' too, being in NS and all. I should be able to take leave, though, but the 'when' part isn't guaranteed. However, I've a feeling that all one may do on leave is sleep and recuperate..
