Oh Happy Night!!

It is the start of winter. The best part about this is that last night was the solstice!! Night will only get longer from here on out...well at least until the next solstice. That really made me happy last night! I am not too happy when night is so LONG!!!

fun with optics

Floating water...yeah so the picture doesn't do it justice. It really is cool. We will bring it at Christmas time for all the nieces and nephews to see. Endrit and I = Nerds and we love it.

Genetics...

Today was my genetics final. I have been stressing about it for awhile. I did some math wrong about a week ago and I thought that I was going to have to get a pretty good grade on the final in order to pass my class. I did all of the math again today and I had a HUGE relief. I only have to get a 34.25% to get a passing grade in the class. Because that is such a low grade, I am sure that I will get way above passing. I am very happy about this. I did not want to retake the class this summer. It would have been horrible. It is nice to know that I am still good at school. I have only dropped 2 classes and never failed any classes. Ends of semesters give me great joy in the accomplishments that I have. It is interesting that I now have over 100 university credits. There is a lot of information in my little mind now. School is fun. It will be really weird when I am done.

In a couple of years...


I have wondered for a while if it is good to give a gift to a woman to congratulate her for becoming a mother. I have found one thing that every pregnant woman deserves. It is really inexpensive compared to other jewelery found in the store. It is Tiffany & Co. It is called the bean necklace. How sweet would it be to have a bean in the belly and a bean necklace to commemorate it? I just think that it would be so sweet. It ranges with the sizes, but the least expensive is $150. It is beautiful! You don't have to have the engraving showing the opposite side is just clear. It gets more expensive as well. They even had some in Lapis, that is REALLY expensive...Thanks Isaac!...I write this because a woman I know who is pregnant with her first just got this from her husband. It is so sweet! So about graduation time, remind Endrit to look into it. He should remember it even if babies are still a way off at that point. I wanted to share it because it couldn't be more beautiful.

Consolation prize

Today we had the science fair in class. No one really understood the significance of mine so I didn't get anything, but I did get a consolation prize and it was better than any trophy. I have determined that my knowledge is wasted on the Elementary education students because they just won't understand the complexity of the things that are in my brain. Talk about deer in the headlights.

The shirt is my FAVORITE!!! It is hilarious!! I love it and so does Endrit. We are horrible geeks and I love it. I love it even more because the saying is so true. The geeks shall inherit the earth; like Endrit and I...beware world.


I also got a gram/ounce digital kitchen scale. It had some good prizes. There were books and posters and other things like that. I wouldn't have minded a book, but I got the most prized prize.


I got people mad at me because I got it and I was a secondary major...whatever! I had fun. I thought I would show you all my loot. :)

Finished!

Endrit went and got me one more string of lights. I think that it looks much better now.
