Camp,..
Friday, April 15, 2011





So.. everyone has gone to camp.. except for me.. thanks to mum..
It feels SO weird when..
-The row of chatboxes with their names on it appear offline..
-there are no sms-es from them..

I miss the last minute sms-es..

Andd.. I hope all of you are having fun at Pahang!!!
PLEASE tell me everything that happened..
I love listening to stories..
and i hope none of you will be so 'lucky' as to encounter leeches..
Heard there are alot of those bloodsuckers there..
get your salt ready..

When a jawed leech has found a host and identified a suitable area for its meal it attaches itself firmly by both ends and gets rigid to keep in place. With its semi-circular and many toothed jaws (like tiny saws) it makes an incision in the skin and excretes a mucous from its nephropores (external openings from the kidney-like organs). This helps the sucker to adhere even better. A salivary secretion containing the anticoagulant and a histamine floods the wound and the leech relaxes its body to allow the blood to be ingested. This anticoagulant mixture allows the blood to flow and prevents clotting once inside the leech. A bacterium in the gut of the leech assists the digestion of the blood, and it has been shown that the type of bacterium varies with the type of host on which the leech feeds. The bacterium also prevents growth of other bacteria which may cause the ingested blood to putrefy.
