the "SLAT-er" party
Wednesday, October 12, 2005 Again, i m one day late to post up my interesting daily occurrence, but oh well, let's focus on the core of the entry itself instead of pinpointing on my slumber-ness. Yesterday, at bout 3.30pm, just half an hour before our Learning Psychology's practical where we are suppose to observe this thing called "slater" (no, not Christian Slater, we weren't trying to cage him and electricute him, since he could cloak himself) and their decision making function, me and justin were running around our house and trying to look for them. At that moment, none of us has any idea on how this slater looks like (hopefully not a bug with a face like Christian Slater) Hmm.. for those of you who are lazy and decided not to click on the link to have a proper look on this cute lil bug thing, here's some photo of those cuties ![]() the one we caught was grey in color ![]() Looks abit like flea or tic huh? Due to lack of experience in slater catching and lack of information, we managed to catch only 1, as we were told that those little bastards here love to hide under bricks, woods, stones, or wherever that is dark, and wet.. So, we looked around the house, hunting for them, but end up only one.. tho it is relatively fat (too bad taada picture) and extremely lively. Later on when we meet up with the rest of the people in the pract, then only they tell us that we should look around trees and plants... Damn it.. anyway, Sher Mayne and Lenny they all caught like tons of them, though most of them looks aneroxic to me, as they are so skinny and petite as compared to "Aaron Slater" (my birthday present to Aaron Chong :P) The difference of size and body mass is like Wynona Ryder versus Arnold the governor (too lazy to find the pics, imagine it yourself), you get the idea? Anyway, back to our experiment, it was a relatively simple experiment, what we need to do, is to set up a T-junction looking maze on a piece of tile, and release the slater (1 by 1) at the tail of the T and observe whether they decided to take a left or right turn.. Ok.. it's a weird experiment for a psychologist student.. Anyhow, each round we had to measure those "Slater" (as pronounced as SLUT-ters by us.. :P), clean up the tile and maze (as the scent of the previous SLUTTER might influence the decision of the current SLUTTER), time their time of completion and observe which direction they would go. Each of us had a specific duty, as i was the chief wiper, my job is to clean the maze and tile, everytime the slutter completed a race; Miza's job is to catch (or rather toy with) them up from the container and measure their body length; while Aaron and Hemah were responsible on recording down the details that we were suppose to observe; Sher Mayne was the time keeper and Justin was the Slutter relocater, as he is responsible on putting them into the maze.. hmm.. so.. lenny, what bout you ah? hmm.. so she's the TRUE observer, just stood there and observe.. lol The entire progress was ordinary, until suddenly, when Justin decided to put the slutter onto the tile first.. then only place the maze on them, more like capturing them with the T-Looking maze, he was successful in doing that for quite awhile, until he accidentally squished or smashed the maze on one of this poor little Slutters.. After the collision, the poor lil guy couldn't even walk straight, and we concluded that Justin's little action here paralyzed the lil bug and so we had to replace it with another slutter. Out of a sudden, Lenny came up with the topic of naming Justing as "the Slutter Killer" and nonsense along this line.. However, justin decided to ignore it and continue with the continue with the experiment, while he was setting up the maze and about to release the slater, he noticed that Sher Mayne, the Timekeeper wasnt paying attention, so he shouted,"Eh, Sher it's COmming" hmm.. Come, Comme, Comm, Cum, Cumm, hmm tho it's just a word, a tone of pronuntiation, but becoz of the situation, tone, and people around you, a simply face like "it's coming" can cause the rise of massive nasty thoughts.. lol.. haha.. yeap, due to that incident we (except for the pure and innocence Justin) continued our nonsensical talk about Justin the "Slutter" killer, and how it could end up being a movie (or porno) and the slogan can be something like, "They are coming, and be sure to get "Blown" away" , "If you dont show youself, I will make you Come", etc (p.s for those who couldnt get the sense out of all these.. you are safe, it has been officially justified that your mind is pure, uncontaminated, and please don't try to find out what it means, if you wanna keep your brain clean, :P) Haha..anyway, we finished our entire experiment in bout 70 mins, trapping and observing 20 (21 if you considered the first victim of Justin the slutter killer as one) slaters. It was a fun experiment, really.. though i am still trying to figure out a clear direction on how this is going to link with learning psych.. but yea it was fun.. And so, we did not keep them as a pet or slaughter them bruttaly, we actually set them free to the wild somewhere within our uni compound, and i sincerely hope that Aaron Slater will be safe and be well! leaving skool f-r3d at 5:43 PM 6 pokies {WTFPWNKTHXBYE} |
