Sick Sea Turtle Swims Right To Hospital Doorstep



Apparently a sea turtle was suffering from a bacterial infection and somehow knew to go to the Florida Keys Turtle Hospital, which is the ONLY licensed veterinary facility in the world that solely treats sea turtles. At first staff members of the hospital didn't treat it right away because they assumed it was just a lost turtle, but the sea turtle was later treated with meds and is all better now. :)


How amazing is that!?

Sticking to this animal-post, I have a thing with pigs because I was born in the year of a pig and my Chinese nickname includes "pig." So I have a somewhat large amount of pig dolls and other things consisting of candles, soaps, keychains, glass figures, nametags, pillows, socks, finger puppets, piggy banks, slippers etc. Then I'm browsing through sites and I find these babies on CakeSpy..


As soon as I can, I'm going to make these cute little things. Haha. I love baked goods and I will definitely try to go the distance to getting them. Not so much going the distance to MAKE them myself, but to BUY them. =] I'm not a cook/chef/baker at all. But these cute little piggies look simple enough. I'll take a picture if/when I make them. :)

Starting Out.

Not sure what I'll be blogging about on this, but I feel I have enough random thoughts in my mind.. so why not publicize them? Maybe I'll even find some sort of inspiration and have it themed and even deck out the layout. So, let's try this baby out and see if I get into it and if anyone's interested!



I suppose before I write about anything, I'll briefly introduce myself. My name is Elaine and I live in New Jersey. This photograph shows me and a blind person who I recently befriended - I'm on the right, this is me on my best day. I have lived in Jersey all my life and though I don't mind it too much, I would love to experience living outside of the state (even possibly the country) before I settle down with a family. I am in my twenties, and I still haven't lived much. I have much to explore! But I have financial restrictions because I have a bad shopping addiction and too much credit that allows me to feed into my addiction. Buuut, that's another story!

Continuing about myself, I am lazy. I am a little shy. I can be random and I can be weird. I love to have fun, I love to laugh. I love to eat. I love playing most sports, but I have no competitive edge so I don't try too hard to get any better. I can't play music for my life, nor can I sing. I love taking pictures, but I'm not too fond of getting my picture taken. I love to travel, but I barely travel - though I'm working on it! [ Speaking of, next week I shall be traveling to Asia for the first time in my life. Specifically, I will be visiting China. Perhaps I will have lots to share through my blogs after I return! ]

Well, ladies and gents.. that's all I can think of for now. Feel free to stop by anytime to catch a glimpse of my life or my thoughts to get to know me a little more. =]
