Man has it been a while

Wow, it has been forever since I have had a chance to update. I missed you guys, that's for sure.

Last Wednesday, my seaweed and algae class headed to the Keys for a research trip. I snorkeled on the reefs, swam with sharks, climed rock walls, scaled actual walls to get into a facility that was closed but as my teacher said, "we were grandfathered in, and come here every year since 1964." I said it was still burglary, but I was one of the two that "broke in" LOL! My cell phone took a swim too, man is that a bummer, lost all my numbers, pictures, and ringtones. But, all in all, it was a grand time, we headed back to G'ville Saturday.

Whew-hoo! Hot damn did the Gators stomp the Seminoles! 34 - 7 was the final score, and it took them 53 minutes to get on the score board. I was hoping for a shut out, but I will definately settle for a good stomping! After I took my online quiz and got a 100, I headed to Mom's house. We did Thanksgiving on Sunday since I was out of town. It was grand! We laid out a spread like you would not believe! I did not get much done in the way of homework, being out of town for 5 days, and I did not have internet... I thought I was gonna die without it, but alas, I survived. It was the worst with out BOTH internet AND cell phone.

This is how I feel with school right now... Highway to the danger zone... haha now you have that song in your head... go watch Topgun, you know you wanna... (as the song suggests or Mission Impossible as the picture would insinuate)

I had a test on Monday, don't know how well I did (well being an A in my book), I did not study near as much as usual, due to the whole out of town thing. I have a final tomorrow in Stat II.... DUN DUN DUN ... I am not looking forward to it. I went to tutoring zone for 5 hours of this crap jammed into my head, and I think I will just pull an all nighter. Maybe I will pass... (pass being above a C in my book) Then I have a Final Saturday, and a final on December 12th. Whew... I have been a busy girl!

I just look at this picture, it is justification for higher education.... lol!

I got my plane tickets to go see my family in Alabama or Abalama as I say... It should be fun. I can't wait to see my sister and brother, and they have horses, I love horses!

Well, I have not had time to surf the net for cool stuff, so this is a pretty boring post I am sure. I am still working on those shooting photos...

I got my classes for next semester... I was finally able to get a seat in Spanish... It is a 5 credit hour class with like 5 book requirements. Total, I am in rolled in 8 credit hours. That is two more than I am used to. This should be interesting. I go to school every day, first thing in the morning and then straight to work.

Thought for the day: It's easy to make a buck, but hard to make a difference. ~Tim Brokaw

Useless fact of the day: Armored knights raised their visors to identify themselves when they rode past royalty. This custom has evolved into the modern military salute.

.... since Dano isn't updating for a while, I am going to be a blog burglar also (winks at Carmel)... I miss you Dano!

50 Stars anyone?

I apologize if I am scarce until finals are done... I just have to focus on school. And somehow find time to sleep. I have not been to bed before midnight in weeks it seems.

Blog ya later folks. I hope you all had a blessed holiday, and if not holiday, just a great day in general!

I just looked at the Wizards of Winter, all I can say is OMG! That's my house!! OK i'm lying, I wish ;) That was nothing short of amazing! I laughed the whole time though. Boy have you had a busy time away, I should go away too.
I have been snorkeling too but if I saw a shark I dunno if I would be here to tell the story. You are braver than me, I did swim with some beautiful blue fishies.
Nice to hear all is well, love the mousey pic. And it's been nice to know i'm not the only blog burglar around :D
