Feeding the fish mosquitos

Thats my fun at the moment. The fish which we think is a fighting fish from Thailand ? maybe and is a beautiful blue with lots of wavy fins. My daughter gave it to her boyfriend (definitely in the most stupid gift ever category). He went away and gave it back to her to mind, then she went away and left it for me to mind.  The poor thing is in a vase with nothing in it except water, it eats other fish so it cant have a companion so I put a rock at the bottom which it is quite interested in. It has fish feed but I thought it probably eats insects so if I squash a mosquito I give it to him/her to eat. I am considering going to a pet shop buying a bigger bowl and seeing if it can tolerate another fish. This may be going too far, I dropped the fish on the floor when I was changing the water, do fish get broken bones?
My eldest daughter graduated last week what a thrill I dont like ceremonies much, didn't go to mine (why handheld games were invented I think) but the Dean of Arts gave a very apt speech saying how she had always made fun of graduations to her daughter consequence daughter didn't attend her own grad or tell mother about it. Mother very mad. It is not the ceremony it is the meaning of it the long years of learning and support and love it takes to bring up a child. 
I applied for the mental health course too and have an acknowledgment back, I can trace my application, like an ipod coming from China. I am pessimistic about getting in so if I dont get in I might apply for masters of arts and do some more history instead. Its expensive but I dont care much about travel so that can be my big trip. 
Waiting for my sister to wake up she got back from Saudi yesterday for christmas. I'm really pleased to see her and we went to see her house which she liked.
