Well, I’m very disappointed in my photography class. It seems like every time a discussion is going somewhere interesting, helpful, or even once in a blue moon advanced (! Imagine that!), some classmate will raise their hand and with their question bring it back down to a basic lecture. I’ve learned absolutely nothing new in that class, and haven’t even had to put the time, effort or thought that I thought I would have to for a three credit class. Finally was able to put my finger on it today. Since it was a guest speaker, he was using all the advanced lingo and such that he thought we should know, but obviously the class didn’t. I was loving it, my notes are filled, but every time I felt he was going somewhere, the other people in my class would rein him back in. It’s very frustrating, I feel like all these kids, some of them have amazing photographs, want to know exactly how, when, and just everything about how to take the perfect photo, that they don’t understand that when you see it, you know. I dunno (I don’t think that quite makes sense, nor exactly conveys what I’m feeling…but), I’m just ranting I guess, and lucky you guys are the recipients. J
I’m so excited to be so close to the end of my first year at college. Sounds so fun to say that! I was at the grocery store a couple of days ago with my friend, when I realized that I was probably buying my last gallon of milk for the semester! It just funny the different times when it hits me.
I was talking with my dad earlier this evening and it sounds like you guys in Utah are getting sleet right now. It’s just cloudy and windy up here, generally. There’ve been a couple of raindrops here and there, and the sidewalks were wet when I walked out earlier this evening, but it looks like the snows finally gone. And hopefully stays gone, I’m very ready for Spring. Saw my first ladybug a couple of days ago.
Like I’ve said before, Finals are coming up. And this semester is going to be a bit more busy than last semester, unfortunately. But classes are still going good. Today in Science, my professor pointed out how on a molecular level, earthworms, and yeast are often compared to humans. Very interesting. He has a lot of interesting tangents. When do you guys remember learning the order of the planets? Astronomy has always been a strong point of mine, but I remember learning the planets in second grade, but here I am up here and college students have trouble trying figure out the difference between Uranus and Mercury. I’m just wondering if it’s abnormal for me to be comfortable with the order of the planets. Though I do kinda love it, since the professor continually puts at least one question in that nature on the test. J It’s like, yes! A freebie! Anyways, I guess I should get going, before I find something else to talk about. Hope all’s going well for everyone, and that Spring showing signs of coming.
Happy almost St. Patrick's Day!

Wow, okay. I believe two years is a long enough hiatus.
Completely and utterly forgot about this, but in one of my classes this semester we blog to turn in assignments. It's something like Art 104-Section 1, if you want to check it out. Not my best work, but winter often is not very inspiring for me. Still have learned a couple of more things in that class, and decided to dig around until I found this again.

Definitely been a lazy day here. Been watching movies or reading most of the day. My roommates and I went and saw 'Tangled' earlier this evening, which is a very cute movie if you haven't seen it yet.
Well I'm going to keep this short, since I'm really ready for bed and should get off before I embarrass myself. Took me a couple of tries to spell 'yet' right. :)

Guess well see if I keep this up.

I Always Hate Naming These Titles

YES IT'S SPRING!!! Well almost, tomorrow anyways is offically Spring.

Besides for that my favorites series came out with the next book, Maximum Ride 5, MAX (seriously all caps), loved it! Another good series, The Icemark Chronicles has it's final book to come out in April, umm...I would say 15th. Then Fablehaven has it's next book coming out on April 20ish! I LOVE SPRING!

Fortune Cookies

"An enjoyable vacation is awaiting you very soon."
That is exactly what my completly random, and in no way forseeable fortune cookie said, kinda creepy. I'm actually going to Disneyland in the upcoming month.
Could a fortune cookie actually be true!

When live gives you lemons, make apple juice, and laugh your heart out as everyone tries to figure out how you did it!

Besides for that Happy Birthday Grandma (since I'm iffy on posting) on the 12th!

HAPPY NEW YEAR!

Welcome to 2009! Hope you all have had a great New Year!
And my sister swears I'm going nuts but I'm I the only one who has any idea of what a solar wind is!? I seriously thought everyone knew, now I feel dorky for having to explain to family and friends.
Does anyone else out there know what a solar wind is?

Another Interesting Fact

Did you know that male bees only have one parent? See I do listen in math!
