The Curious Case of the Immortal Jellyfish

Journal Entry: Sun Nov 15, 2009, 8:43 AM



One of the things I pride myself on in my DA journals, is the fact I attempt to always bring odd and interesting facts to the table. It doesn't always happen, in fact, it rarely happens. However, I think this story is really rather good.

My mother brought it to my attention this morning that "Immortal" Jellyfish have been discovered. It's pretty amazing.

Basically, after they fully grow up, they reproduce. Then, after they reproduce they turn back into children. Then they grow up again, reproduce, turn back into children. Repeat as needed.

Scientists don't understand HOW yet, they just know the jellyfish do it.

This is obviously a bit dated, considering the ability was discovered nearly 20 years ago, but it's the first I'd heard of it, and I thought I should share.

Just Google "Immortal Jellyfish", if you're curious.

((Oh, and by the way, The New Christmas Carol movie is absolutely the BEST version of The Christmas Carol that I have ever seen. Go see it. Be warned, it's a tad creepy--my brother was shaking in fear at the end.))

Pssst~ Found a new APH RP forum that you might be interested in~ [link]

I applied as Korea and am waiting for confirmation before I make my profile xD Too bad Prussia and Canada are taken Dx At least my friend's being aniki <3

Austria's not taken as well as most other characters ;D

Working on: Yaoi. Yep, you herd right.

~UncleKasu: I think you just made my world implode and reform into a land where pink butterflies soar through fields of cotton candy.

I am Korea, Denmark, and Luxembourg in *KachieChanChu's Hetalia RP!
:iconthe-horrible-sock:
That's cute, thought I'm not sure I'd have the time to roleplay. Dx
:iconipl0x:
Oh noes! Yeah you busy with school and all Dx (Again glad I'm a college student...but yeah)

Well, there's still time left before characters are claimed just in case~

Dx Especially during this time of year. I just don't trust myself, considering I managed to drop out of an RP group in the middle of summer break due to time restrictions. Dx

Uughhh. I'm so tempted to claim Roddie though. (Though, that would be a serious change from my normal rp character personalities...) Dx
:iconipl0x:
Dx Yeah I'm sure I'll be busy but when I need a break I'll be RPing xD

Austria was in my prompt response xD He told me (as Korea) to shut up Dx
