Understanding Ear Wax Removal: How Audiology Can Help Maintain Your Hearing Health

Ear wax, or cerumen, is a natural substance produced by the glands in your ear canal. It plays a crucial role in protecting your ears by trapping dust, debris, and microorganisms. However, excessive ear wax buildup can lead to discomfort, hearing loss, and other complications. If you're struggling with ear wax issues, our audiology clinic offers professional ear wax removal audiology services to ensure your ears stay healthy and your hearing remains clear.

Why is Ear Wax Important?

Before we delve into ear wax removal, it's essential to understand the role ear wax plays in ear health. Ear wax:

Protects: It acts as a barrier, preventing dust, dirt, and other foreign particles from reaching the delicate inner ear.

Moisturizes: It helps keep the ear canal skin from becoming dry and itchy.

Antibacterial Properties: Ear wax has properties that can help prevent infections.

However, sometimes the ear produces too much wax, or the wax doesn't naturally exit the ear canal, leading to a buildup that can cause issues.

Signs of Ear Wax Buildup

You might need ear wax removal if you experience:

Hearing Loss: A common symptom of impacted ear wax.

Earache or Discomfort: Pain or a feeling of fullness in the ear.

Tinnitus: Ringing or buzzing sounds in the ear.

Itchiness: Persistent itching in the ear canal.

Dizziness: In severe cases, ear wax buildup can affect balance.

Why Choose Professional Ear Wax Removal?

While there are various over-the-counter remedies for ear wax removal, they can sometimes do more harm than good. Professional ear wax removal performed by an audiologist is safe and effective for several reasons:

Expertise and Experience: Audiologists are trained to handle ear wax removal with precision, minimizing the risk of damage to the ear canal or eardrum.

Proper Tools: We use specialized instruments and techniques, such as microsuction and irrigation, to remove ear wax gently and efficiently.

Comprehensive Care: A visit to our clinic includes a thorough examination of your ears to ensure there are no underlying issues contributing to the ear wax buildup.

Our Ear Wax Removal Methods

At our audiology clinic, we offer several safe and effective ear wax removal methods:

1. Microsuction

Microsuction is considered one of the safest and most effective methods for ear wax removal. This technique involves using a small suction device to gently remove the wax from the ear canal under the guidance of a microscope. It's a quick and painless procedure with minimal risk of complications.

2. Irrigation

Ear irrigation involves using a controlled flow of water to dislodge and flush out ear wax. This method is particularly effective for softening and removing larger buildups of wax. Before irrigation, we ensure the ear drum is intact and there's no infection, making the procedure safe.

3. Manual Removal

In some cases, manual removal using specialized tools may be the best option. This method allows the audiologist to carefully extract ear wax, especially if it's hard or impacted. The procedure is performed under magnification for precision and safety.

Preparing for Your Ear Wax Removal Appointment

To ensure a successful and comfortable ear wax removal experience, follow these tips:

Avoid DIY Remedies: Refrain from using cotton swabs, ear candles, or other at-home treatments that can push the wax deeper or cause injury.

Hydrate Your Ears: If advised by your audiologist, use ear drops to soften the wax a few days before your appointment.

Be Honest: Share your medical history and any symptoms with your audiologist to help them choose the best removal method for you.

Aftercare Tips

After your ear wax removal, follow these aftercare tips to maintain healthy ears:

Keep Ears Dry: Avoid getting water in your ears for a few days to prevent irritation.

Monitor Symptoms: If you experience discomfort, itching, or hearing issues, contact your audiologist.

Regular Check-Ups: Schedule regular ear exams to monitor ear wax buildup and overall ear health.

Conclusion

Professional ear wax removal is a safe and effective way to ensure your ears stay healthy and your hearing remains clear. At our audiology clinic, we are committed to providing you with the highest standard of care using the latest techniques and tools.

TikTok on the Clock // Daniel Ricciardo

One of the best things to come out of the pandemic lockdown was finally giving in to the urge to download TikTok. You had quickly grown addicted to scrolling through the mix of eclectic videos that popped up on your “for you page” and soon enough decided to start posting some yourself.

It did not take long for Formula 1 fans to make the connection between your account and who your boyfriend is — Daniel Ricciardo was many things but subtle was not one of them and he had a tendency to “accidentally” interrupt you while you filmed.

You kept the account going long after restrictions eased and hopped on many of the trends that made their rounds on the app. This year, you were feeling slightly evil. You have been putting together a compilation of hilarious (if you did say so yourself) pranks that you pulled on your boyfriend since the season began and were just about to hit upload as the countdown began.

You put down your phone and turn to give Daniel your full attention.

One

His lips taste like champagne.

Happy New Year!

“Hey Dan?”

“Mmh.”

“Maybe stay off TikTok for a bit.”

“What did you do?”

One

You loved the Australian Grand Prix. Your boyfriend’s home race was a spectacle on the track and a great opportunity to spend time with his family off the track.

As usual, you flew out to Perth a bit early before switching coasts for the race. You were busy in the kitchen, putting the finishing touches on dinner as you prepared to host everyone that evening. When everything was mostly done, you started recording on your phone and leaned it against the wall inconspicuously before calling for your boyfriend.

“Hey, babe?” You pour a heaping pile of salt on a spoon.

“Yeah?” You can hear Daniel from across the house.

“Can you come taste my sauce?” You dunk the spoon in a pot of your tomato sauce and pick up just enough to hide the salt.

He basically runs to the kitchen, “test taster reporting for duty.”

You bring the spoon to his mouth, “I used your nonna’s recipe.”

His eyes screw shut and his mouth puckers, “my-my nonna’s recipe?”

“Your mom shared it with me. Isn’t it delicious?”

“Yeah,” his voice cracks. “Delicious.”

You look at his face again and fight a losing battle not to laugh as he desperately tries not to offend you and his grandma.

You reach towards your phone as giggles escape you.

Daniel finally realizes he’s been tricked, “are you serious?”

You point the camera towards your boyfriend, “you should’ve seen your face.”

“You’re so mean to me,” he pouts.

Two

“Babe?” You questioned coming through the front door. You had spent the day loading up on groceries and stopping by a few boutiques that caught your eye. This was the perfect opportunity to finally pull one over on your boyfriend.

“I’m in here,” you drop your bags in the foyer and follow Daniel’s voice to where he’s lying on the living room sectional.

Your phone is stuck in your bra, the camera just peaking over your shirt. “My car told me I needed windshield wiper fluid while I was out.”

He lowers his phone but keeps his focus on it.

“So I pulled into a gas station and the guy working there gave me a really good deal. He told me I got it for 50 percent off and it was only $150 for me because of how sweet I was.”

Daniel’s head snaps up as he drops his phone.

“$150?”

“Yeah.”

“You paid $150?”

“Yeah …”

“For windshield wiper fluid?”

“Yeah? He told me it was a good deal!”

“Love,” you can’t tell if he wants to laugh or cry, “I could’ve done that for free. He ripped you off.”

“But it was 50 percent off?”

“It costs less than $5 to buy and then you just pour it in!” He gestures wildly, “this is my fault. How do I race for a living and literally collect cars without teaching my girlfriend how to change her own windshield wiper fluid?”

By this point you’re silently laughing which Daniel finally notices.

“Really? Really?” He turns around to face the back of the couch, “don’t talk to me.”

“Awww, baby. Don’t be mad at me,” you coo. “I think it’s cute how protective you got.”

“Still mad at you.” It’s hard to take him seriously with his face shoved into the leather couch, muffling his voice.

Three

You walk into the gym, your phone hidden in the pocket of your leggings, and take in the view of you shirtless boyfriend.

The fans will appreciate this one.

“Dan?”

He pauses his juggling on the stationary bike.

“My back’s really been bothering since I came back from my run. Do you think you can help me stretch it or something?”

He gets off the bike and walks toward you, “do you want me to call Michael? He won’t mind coming over to help with your back.”

“Don’t bother him. It’s nothing major,” you turn away from your boyfriend and quickly stick two pieces of pasta between your molars while he can’t see, “just need to loosen it up a bit.”

“Okay …” he spreads his palms across your back and applies some careful pressure. You bite down on the pasta, timing the crack with his movements.

“Oh my god.” You let your body go limp.

“Love? Are you okay?” He tries to hold you up but you collapse on the padded floor of the gym.

“Is it your back? What did I do? I knew we should’ve just called Michael. Oh my god.”

You take pity on your boyfriend, not wanting him to think that he actually broke your back for longer than a few seconds, “it was just pasta.”

“What?”

“The sound. It was just me biting pasta. It’s a prank trend.”

He lets go of your body and you fully drop to the floor.

“Are.” He pelts you with one of the balls he was juggling.

“You.” And another.

“Kidding.” And another.

“Me?” And another.

You run out of the gym laughing as he continues to chase you through the house, “I’m sorry! I’m sorry!”

“I thought I broke your back!”

[befuddledcinnamonroll]

Ooh, ok, I adore @respectthepetty's awesome gym bros pitch for our GMMTV boys, so now I want to hear everyone's top proposal for a group BL GMMTV series. Let's say at least 3 couples, but you can add anyone else that you want on top of that.

My pitch? A heist series.

Main couples: FirstKhaotung, MarcPoon, JoongDunk.

Khaotung has just graduated from college and returns home to discover his grandmother and a bunch of her neighbors have been forced out of their homes with meager compensation, due to a rich asshole developer/real estate tycoon. He calls his besties from college, Dunk & Marc, for help. They decide the only thing to do is to plan a heist to steal from the tycoon, both for the money to give to the people he victimized, and to humiliate him.

Dunk's older brother, Pepper, lives with his boyfriend Papang, who works a legit job now but used to run in shadier circles and still has a lot of connections. They start recruiting.

First is the mechanically minded one, and yes, he will be wearing those tank tops from Not Me with the long arm holes, and he has lots of tattoos. Khaotung is pretty much lost at the first smile.

Poon is a tech expert, comes across as nerdy but has quite a dominant side. Marc takes a while to realize what is going on between them, but is into it.

Joong is the muscle and at first Dunk underestimates him until they bond over a shared love of classic cinema.

Additional people on the heist team (some also related to other victims, some just people they connect with along the way):

Perth & Mond - not formerly paired, but they do have a makeout scene, because I want to test a theory about them.

AJ and JJ both in, and using their twinness as part of the heist shenanigans.

Milk and Namtan as a pair of super lethal lesbian assassins who were originally planning to kill the tycoon, but join the heist for the lols.

And because the Khun Feathers thing makes me so happy, Khaotung also has a Sun Conure that they train to help in the heist.

almost makes you wish

I have a terrible habit of finding all these prompt lists and never posting anything I write from them because I blank on like one or two of them, but I think?? I really liked this one

This is day 8 from Yeehawgust 2023: Patrolling the Mojave Little bit of always a girl!Daniel Maxiel circa Melbourne 2023

1170 words of (past)hurt/(present) comfort (TW: mental health discussion, medication)

They’ve had most of the day together, doing promotional videos in Melbourne, when Max texts her his hotel number like she hinted at.

“No dice Maxy, I am out of commission. It’s like patrolling the Mojave desert down there.” Daniel announces as she flops back onto his hotel bed, dramatic as ever.

Max sips his Red Bull and weighs up his options. She looks better for the time at home in the sun, not as gaunt and haunted as she had by the end of last year. Her smile comes easier again like all it needed to do was recharge in the Perth sun. Her hair is longer, curls fanned around her face and down past her shoulders.

A pillow hits him in the face. “Hey, space cadet.” Daniel is leaning up on her elbows, eyeing him almost suspiciously. “I can, like...I can go, if you don’t want to...if this was just for...”

Max tuts and rolls his eyes, tosses the pillow back at her. “I just wanted to see you.”

Her face does something weird as soon as he says it. In true Daniel fashion though, she deflects with humour. “Aw Maxy, lil old me? I’m flattered.”

Max throws her the tv remote and settles on the bed next to her – leaves space for her to decide if she wants to curl up against him. “You of course aren’t old, Daniel.”

“I’m decrepit, Max. A husk. Wasting away right in front of my own eyes.” She’s laughing as she carries on, finds a movie they can put on in the background. “Do I go towards the light?” She grabs his arm, short nails painted red stark again his pale arm.

Max (so fond of her it feels like he could choke on it, actually – because he finds he knows that means she’s testing the waters, seeing if he wants her close) uses her own hand to yank her off balance so she falls against his chest. “No thank you, I think actually that would be very bad.”

She stills for a moment and then it’s like she melts into the contact, nestling into the crook of his arm and throwing one leg over his, easily like they do this much more often than they do. “Yeah, then you’d have to do all of your media stuff by yourself.”

Max rolls his eyes again. “And I would be sad for you to be gone.” His breath stirs her hair as they settle close to each other.

Daniel goes as still as she ever does, and Max can practically hear the wheels in her head turning.  Before she pushes herself up so she can look at his face, sitting heavy on his chest like one of the cats back home (Max wants to tell her that Sassy winds around his legs when they’re on the phone and she can hear Daniel’s disembodied voice, and she doesn’t do that for anyone else). “You mean that?”

“Yes, Daniel.” He keeps his voice light, schools his face open. He wants to roll his eyes and ask if she’s really that stupid, or if she really thinks so little of him, but he suspects it’s not the time.

Her lips quirk and she blinks until her eyes aren’t so glassy (Max is secretly glad; he doesn’t like it when she cries – no matter what he does it feels like the wrong thing). “S’good to know.” She says eventually, settling back down and tucking her head under his chin, closer than they were.

“Did…did you think differently?” He asks, hesitant before he decides it might be easier not looking at each other.

She shrugs, but he can feel her picking her thumb nail where the skin is already shredded to pieces. “Not...I mean...I know it in theory. Or...logically, let’s say. Just...sometimes it doesn’t...or didn’t, feel like it, you know? Not from you, just...depression brain, I guess.” She huffs a laugh which is more like a puff of air against his chest. “They make pills for that, though. Turns out.”

Max chews over different words in his head until it’s nearly been too long, he thinks. “You could have said, that it was so bad.” He settles on eventually.

Daniel tuts. “Kinda hard when you don’t even wanna say it to yourself.” She mutters, and then takes a deep breath. Max thinks she’s counting in her head, it’s so measured. “Sorry, I...I know I could have. Thank you. Of course I know.”

“Maybe you don’t, sometimes.” He ventures. “I think of course you are very tough and brave in racing, but you think all the time you have to be that way for everyone.” Max almost holds his breath, worried he’s said too much.

“Wow, exposed.” She mutters after a moment of silence that isn’t quite charged, but its weighty. “Nah you’re...” she rolls onto her stomach so she can look at him, hands on his chest again. “You’re right. I don’t...or, I didn’t always know that, though. I’ve been...working on it, I guess. In therapy and stuff. I’m...trying.”

Max can see something determined in her face that had gone missing, by the end of the last year, ground out of her. He reaches for the curl falling in front of her eyes and nudges it back with the rest. “You of course know there’s nothing wrong with you, though.”

Daniel snorts. “Debatable. That’s the whole...the antidepressants are why I can’t...like I can’t stress the Mojave desert enough.”

“I said already this was okay, Daniel.” Max narrows his eyes at her. “Unless that’s all you came for.”

It’s a calculated risk, to goad her into a response. He’s known her so much of his life, the whole time he’s been an adult. They’ve been doing some form of this for most of that time, too, around girlfriends and boyfriends and racing.

Daniel scowls at him, dark brows drawn together and pout on her full mouth. “Hey! That’s not fair, I just...I missed you, and...”

He grins, so wide it almost makes his cheeks hurt. “You missed me?”

Max has time to register the surprise on her face before she’s even more in his space, nose an inch away from his and her body draped over his chest (if he looked, he knows he’d see straight down the neckline of her shirt – he doesn’t, because it doesn’t feel appropriate, but he does think about it). “You’re a little shit, Verstappen.” Daniel declares, eyes dancing a bit.

His hands naturally fall to her hip and her waist and he tries to look innocent. “I of course learnt from you, so you only have yourself to blame.”

She laughs long and loud and close to his face, and he wakes up to her drooling onto his shirt hours later, TV switched itself to standby. He puts her phone on charge next to his and nudges her under the blankets even though she grumbles about it (but she throws a leg over his, murmurs thanks into the hollow of his throat).

since you're kind of The Havanese Person, do these breeders look ok to you? I don't wanna get a puppy from someone who only cares about money

Jangle Havanese

Mariposa Havanese

Windyhill Havanese

Bare minimum OFA screening for Havanese: ACVO Eye Exam (valid for 1 year), Patellar Luxation, Hip Dysplasia

My personal list adds: BAER Hearing, Cardiac Evaluation

Bonus Tests: Elbow Dysplasia, Legg-Calve-Perths, Von Willebrands, CDDY/IVDD, CDP

Things to ask every breeder: how are puppies selected for families (if you get to pick based on color, that's a red flag). What are the CHIC numbers of the parents (if these are not given to you, or the health results are subpar, or the eye exams are out of date, that's a red flag). When can you take a puppy home (if it is less than 8 weeks old that's a red flag). What is the temperament of their dogs, what activities do they do (as a companion dog, they often go to homes that don't compete in dog sports, but I would expect at least some of the dogs produced by a breeder to do obedience, rally, therapy work, maybe agility or trick training etc.), what are the temperaments of their dogs, what are the goals of their breeding programs?

Jangle Havanese is run by the President of the Havanese Club of America. I'm not privy to that inner circle, but I haven't heard of any scandals involving her. Does more than the basic 3 health testing. 5 year health guarantee.

Things to look into: how does she socialize/raise her puppies

Mariposa Havanese raise dogs using Puppy Culture. Breeders can successfully socialize/raise puppies without using PC specifically, but that is an easy green flag for me. Is up front about which health issues to be wary of. Has a good little write-up on the history of the breed (although it's a bit whitewashed in regards to colonization, but truly the bar is on the floor). Has a long history with the Havanese Club of America. Does more than the basic 3 health tests.

Things to look into: are the eye exams of her breeding dogs up to date, would she expect a dog you could no longer care for to be returned to her, are her dogs vaccinated before they go to their homes

I wouldn't buy from Windyhill even though they do more than the basic 3 health testing. Eye issues keep popping up in their lines.

Disclaimer: this is not comprehensive, I am not a Havanese breeder or a dvm or a geneticist. I am not a member of the AKC. I'm very sleepy.

These opinions are formed exclusively from looking at breeder websites and the CHIC database. My next step would be looking through a breeder's facebook for other indications such as positive/negative interactions with other dog breeders and puppy buyers. Anti-vax shenaniganery. Are they doing stuff with their dogs. Are they decent people or are they like.. trump supporters.

Final step would be reaching out to a breeder and seeing if they are producing the kind of dog you want, and if you are capable of giving their dogs the kind of home they want to give their puppies to.

This is not comprehensive. It is judgemental and vibes based.

I will again emphasize that eye exams should be done yearly and definitely be done prior to breeding the dogs. not after they've already produced offspring.

Getting a Havanese may be difficult, but I'm here to help, and I promise it's worth it 💙

I have never once regretted waking up with Whim next to me.

[behaeil]

extremely studious and a bit of an overachiever, he double majors in dance and literature with a minor in psychology; one of his dreams when growing up was to become a dance therapist, and help those in need find solstice and comfort in moving their bodies

a bit of a clean freak, his room can be seen as perfectly pristine and spotless

he can be seen as unapproachable and distant at first, but really, underneath it all, he is a very warm and caring person, he just needs to be treated with a little bit of patience and kindness

loves to learn new hobbies no matter how unconventional they are, he's been currently watching a bunch of slime asmr, and eyeing tutorials how to make them; maybe down the line he'll make his own

adopted and not ashamed of it, he's very close to his adoptive parents and loves to talk about them; they moved with him to south korea, and whenever he's not busy or at school, he can be found hanging out with them

strongly believes that cats are the superior species

Why Get a Tinnitus Assessment?

If you have ringing in the ears (tinnitus) it’s important to get an assessment. This will be done by an audiologist and usually includes a hearing test.

The good news is that tinnitus is very treatable. There are many different approaches and most people find their tinnitus disappears within 12-24 months of starting treatment.

Causes

Although tinnitus assessment perth is usually associated with hearing loss, there are many other health conditions that can trigger it. Some of these include blood vessel disorders, such as atherosclerosis, high blood pressure, and kinked or malformed vessels; thyroid problems; and migraines and autoimmune diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis and lupus. Other factors that can affect tinnitus are noise exposure, stress, and sleep disturbances.

Some people who have tinnitus say it sounds like ringing, buzzing, roaring, whistling or hissing in the ears. This sound is only heard by the person who has it and can be continuous or intermittent. It can also vary in pitch and tone.

A doctor or audiologist can diagnose tinnitus by doing a physical examination and checking your ears. He or she may also refer you to an ear, nose and throat (ENT) specialist for further tests. If the tinnitus is caused by an underlying health condition, treatment of that disease should help your tinnitus.

Diagnosis

In most cases, tinnitus is caused by an underlying hearing loss. It can appear as ringing, buzzing, humming, or whooshing noises that occur in one or both ears and often impact quality of life.

The first step in diagnosing tinnitus is to see your primary care doctor for a basic exam. They’ll examine your ear canals to check for earwax or fluid, and ask about any medications you’re taking (tinnitus is sometimes a side effect of certain drugs).

If your tinnitus is persistent, an otolaryngologist or audiologist can evaluate it using hearing and tinnitus tests. These can include tympanometry, which measures sound waves reflected by your ear drum, and audiometry to determine how much hearing loss you have. Your doctor may also order neuroimaging, such as an MRI or CT scan, to look for any structural problems in your head and neck that could be the cause of your tinnitus. They might also use electronystagmography, a test that assesses balance and movement.

Treatment

If the ringing in your ears is caused by an underlying condition, such as high blood pressure or a jaw problem, treating the problem may help with your tinnitus. Your GP will check your ears, and may refer you to an ear, nose and throat (ENT) specialist for hearing tests.

Most tinnitus is subjective, meaning that only you can hear it. In some cases, such as pulsatile tinnitus, which sounds like your heartbeat, the sound can be heard by others through a stethoscope or other device.

Treatments include counseling, such as cognitive behavioral therapy, which teaches you to change your reaction to your tinnitus and helps you learn coping techniques. Masking devices play a quiet background noise to make your tinnitus less noticeable. Other treatments include relaxation and stress management. Newer treatments use transcranial magnetic stimulation to reduce neural pathways that are involved in perception of tinnitus. These treatments are usually short-term and work best when combined with counseling.

Follow-up

For some hearing loss in australia, a definite cause of the tinnitus will never be found. This is particularly true for those who suffer from tinnitus associated with a neurological condition such as tinnitus that follows exposure to excessive noise or neurological tinnitus, which may result from a stroke, tumour, head trauma or other conditions.

These patients often find that their tinnitus can be managed in other ways, including using cognitive-behavioural therapy to learn to ignore the tinnitus. Other strategies include avoiding loud noises, taking precautions in the workplace and limiting alcohol, caffeine and nicotine intake.

This scoping review suggests that many help-seekers are dissatisfied with the quality of their healthcare experience, particularly at the initial stages of seeking care. However, satisfaction ratings appear to increase once the patient accesses specialised tinnitus clinics. It would be very helpful if healthcare providers could offer information about and/or refer patients to these services in the initial consultations. This would facilitate patients’ access to the tinnitus treatments that are most effective for them.

life update

Last I did this was around 2021 (yes I went through my posts; there was also an attempt at another but it never made out of my drafts), well, here’s where my head is at now.

With intense praying and manifestation, I got back to flying around 2022. I thought I would be laid off for a loooong, looooong, time but I got back after 9 mos. Still, those days felt like forever when paired with anxieties and uncertainty.

Caryl and Oli’s Wedding, February 2023

I honestly thought that would be the worst highlight of my life. But life, well, it doesn’t stop testing you out.

I’ve been scammed, betrayed, abandoned, and so much more. The longer I stayed in the company, the more I realized how I don’t see myself staying here anymore longer than 10 years, I think.

Barrio Francisco, Siargao, November 2023

I hated that my life revolved around work. How I feel like I was indebted to it. I am thankful for the opportunities and benefits obviously. But is that where it ends?

Dubai, December 2023

I broke down for 2 days straight recently. It took one bad week with consecutive bad luck and bad news. I have no idea if it’s because of the eclipse or if it’s what God has planned for me.

Idk if I should be thankful or despise life because all I’ve been saying for those two days was “God please take me already” but I also grew to realize this this bad week might be the answer to what I have been praying for.

I am so confused. It’s the first time I felt so genuinely happy in such a long time and when I tried to make time for it, God or whoever or whatever takes it away from me.

36,000 ft up, New Year's attempt at grapes, January 2024

But as the days pass by, my delulu/overthinking/gut has been giving me mixed signs and realization. I have no idea which mindset to actually settle in. It's crazy mad up in here.

I've prayed enough to let it go, that hopefully God hears the wishes of my heart. No matter how hard I try to pray for answers, I don't think you'll get it directly, right away.

Blue Boat House, Perth, March 2024

So, here I am stuck in this endless loop of sadness, slowly withering away and not really in the mood to live.

I don't think I'll ever be happy.

#6: (based on a true story, involving myself as the villain at a Grade 6 School Camp in early 1982, then age 12)

Particularly hungry one day, I ate three plates of Baked Beans. Bad mistake, as a few hours later I felt a low rumble in my stomach, I knew a fart was brewing.

Fortunately, as it was on a night where the students were expected to put on Stage Performances and I had been ignored and stopped by other students from participating in any performances, I didn't care who was doing what on stage. That year there were 6 teachers and at least 100 Grade 6 students at the camp in southwest Victoria.

It was during a performance by two girls who were singing, and who I didn't get along with in class or the school yard. As they reached the middle of their song, I felt my stomach rumbling, so I decided to be silent with the gas release. However, all of us were sitting in plastic chairs on metal legs.

Anyway, as one of the girls sang the words of, ".......and this is what he said......", I let the fart out, however, it was loud and somewhat long, amplified by the plastic chair itself, in a room that was dark except the stage itself. Expecting to be told off by anyone nearby, I was surprised to hear 100 other students and the 6 teachers burst out laughing, including the two girls on stage. One teacher in particular said to her colleague, "I'll pay that, that was good timing" as she laughed and clapped. And fortunately for me, because it was a darkened audience area, no one ever knew it was me.

#7: (jailor means prison guard)

What's the difference between a jailor and a jeweler? One sells watches, the other watches cells.

#8:

A truck driver was driving along a country road one day, when he went drive below a lower level railway bridge. Unfortunately his truck became stuck. A motorist pulled up and watched for half an hour as the driver unsuccessfully tried to free his truck.

Then with brilliant eloquence, the motorist said, "Tell me, are you stuck?", to which the truck driver replied, "No. I was delivering the railway bridge and I forgot the address.".

#9:

How do you know if a lady is wearing Tights? When she farts, her ankles swell.

#10:

A father in law was driving along one day when he was pulled over by Police. When the officer said, "Tell me, did you know your wife fell out of the car about half an hour ago?", the father in law replied, "Thank God. I thought I'd gone deaf!"

#11:

One day a man was driving on a country road a couple of hundred kilometres (miles for US residents) northwest of Melbourne, when he passed a chicken farm. What caught his attention was that the chickens had four legs each, not the standard two.

Reaching the farm house, he said to the farmer, "I saw your chickens as I drove past. What's with the four legs on each one?". The farmer replied, "People like tasty chickens, so I bred mine to have two extra legs each".

The man asked, "Tell me, do they taste alright?", to which the farmer replied, "I don't know. They run so fast I can't catch any of them!"

#12:

Two old wanderers were walking along a country road one foggy night, when they came across a roadside Distance sign. Thinking they were in a cemetery, one said, "Geez, this one lived a long life". The other asked, "How old were they when they died?", to which the first one answered, "109. Miles, from Adelaide".

#12a:

In the early 1970s, to deal with a growing issue of unintentionally hurting ethnic minorities, a Variety Show in Melbourne, "Hey Hey It's Saturday", devised a completely fictional country, Biddleonia, taken from the name of the show's producer, a Mr Biddle. The intention was to use this country specifically for jokes that would otherwise fall foul of Censorship Rules. Needless to say, this became an unequalled success. The country was in the shape of a goat's head, a white flag flown upside down and an accent strangely linked to the original jokes. Below is the Biddleonian Soccer Team.

On his deathbed, a very old Robin Hood said to Maid Marion and his followers, "Where this arrow lands is where I want to be buried", then let fly very unsteadily with his bow and arrow. It came to pass he was buried on top of the wardrobe (closet for US residents) in his and Maid Marion's bedroom.

#24: (This is a true story I recall hearing when I was in Year 8, 1984 AD, at my former, first Secondary School)

The story went that a young lady whose last name was Ophelia was due to marry a young man whose last name was Dick. From the 1980s it became common practice for ladies to combine their last name with those of the men they married, eg, Mrs Reid - Smith, etc. However, in this case she didn't do this, instead taking on her prospective husband's last name only as hers.

There must be a variety of levels of intelligence on Earth. Having all people smart is a horrible thing by Farida

     "The true sign of intelligence is not knowledge but imagination", Albert Einstein. Intelligence and smartness are not only about knowledge. They are about skills; therefore, IQ tests cannot determine your true intelligence. They only seek for your way of thinking which is incorrect. Since smartness isn`t only about knowledge, people have different levels of intelligence. Different levels of intelligence cause each individual to be different from the other or unique in their own way. Also that God created things perfectly just the way they should be. Moreover, having different levels of intelligence causes a connection between people.

“Counselling Perth | Child Psychologist Perth.” One Central Health, www.onecentralhealth.com.au/.

“Commodity Futures Trading Commission | CFTC.” Www.cftc.gov, www.cftc.gov/.

     Different and various levels of IQ cause each of us to be singular and extraordinary. Various levels of intelligence give each of us advantages and disadvantages. They cause one to be good at something another is not good at. For example, Gardner`s theory of multiple intelligences. Howard Gardner the Harvard psychologist believes that we have multiple or various types of intelligences.

1- Visual-Spatial Intelligence

2- Linguistic-Verbal Intelligence

3- Logical-Mathematical Intelligence

4- Bodily-Kinesthetic Intelligence

5- Musical Intelligence

6- Interpersonal Intelligence

7- Intrapersonal Intelligence

8- Naturalistic Intelligence

9- Existential Intelligence

each of the previously mentioned have their very own characteristics and levels of intelligence which causes each of them to be unique at something another is not good at or may not find interesting. This leads to different personalities, jobs, and characters. Having various levels of intelligence creates different characters among the world. Each of them being distinctive from one another.

Cherry, Kendra. “Know More. Live Brighter.” Verywell Mind, 2018, www.verywellmind.com/.

‌“Lose the Very.” Www.losethevery.com, www.losethevery.com/.

     God created things impeccably. Because he only knows how each and every one of us truly feels on the inside, and because God destined specific things for specific people, they are going to happen no matter what. God heard conversations you did not hear and saw things you did not see, so he knows what is right for you, and if it is ethical or good for you, God will help you get to it. People nowadays think they only know what is right for them thus they undergo surgeries to improve their IQ and looks even though they are forbidden, and doing so gives them opportunities to use their IQ and beauty in evil acts. 

     Currently, people think that if all of them had the same level of intelligence, it will allow them to communicate better, and have better connections, but this is totally wrong. Smartness will never be the key to collaboration. Because we have different types and levels of intelligence, non of us are perfect. As mentioned before, every type of intelligence causes one to be good at something the other is not good at. Which creates a type of bond between people. Maybe one will face struggles in their life that they cannot pass, but having different people with different characters and abilities forces everybody to need the help of another. Using other people`s help one could pass their biggest struggles, but if we had people with the same levels of intelligence, they will never tend to communicate with one another because they know that they all have the same things.

     In a nutshell, God created things impeccably just how they should be. Which in fact, causes the connections between people because everybody is unique. Knowing this is important as the amounts of surgeries that change things in people such as IQ or smartness are increasing , and so is the danger and risk in them.
