  Usually squeeze some lemon juice and then eat it. You can also add some tobasco sauce if you want.

  Arrrgh... bugger it. I've given up revising for the test later.
  
  I think I'll just flip through my notes later after lunch.
  
  I don't think I can do anything now that would help me in the test later. The law of diminishing returns kicked in quite some time ago already.
  
  Besides, it's open-book.
  
  I just hope I don't get any more ambiguity fiascos like what happened last time.

  Anyway for oysters I think the best ways are the way they were done at Newton or just raw with lemon or as shooters

  I've had raw oysters just once before....
  
  .... but I could only gulp down a couple of them before I started feeling sick.

  tank to be put on the desk in the office.. so probably a small tank.. one i guess..
  
  but not so soon.. need to sort out the stuff in the office... expecting a tsunami of work coming in the next 2 months...
  
  already planning out a bunch of slides and i'm getting a headache about it..
  
  this amount of work for about 10 minutes is dumb.. but hey.. i don't know why the boss started this nonsense.. i'll talk the next one into scrapping it

  I probably can have only 1 or 2. It's not my favourite. I don't mind the cooked ones but it's the raw ones that I just can't make myself to like them.

  Ok. Coz I'm getting another albino so might just pick up one for you coz the supply is inconsistant
  
  I'll just fatten yours up till you are ready
  
  Mine is currently gorging on fish fry
  I hope it doesn't die coz I poured in a whole packet of fish and I saw a really fat and round belly this morning

  hi sbs
  
  well, my raw results turned out better, the lines were smoother compared to the jpgs.
  
  sharpening definitely need to increase to add more definition
