they say to keep it alive for a year

Up until now, I have been convinced that the best way to keep a house-plant alive is for me to not own it. But I'm trying to be a responsible adult. Perhaps a time lapse study in the attention-span of a Collier is in order, but if I lose interest in the plant, so too will likely go the project. I don't feel like putting a picture up at the moment, suffice it to say that it looks much girlier in my apartment than it did in the greenhouse. I shall do my best.

If this works out, I may add a fish.
