Love babies!

So as many may already know , I have a new cousin . She is a little older and getting a lot cuter. I finally got a good picture of Lexi and I . My last picture, I looked like Medusa and my glasses were all crooked . so heres the new picture!

Science is always interesting for me.

So I really only ever go to an actual class once a week and its only one class . So I decided to take Bio. I love biology , considering I am thinking going to major in marine biology. Well to get on with what I am trying to get at is something interesting always happens. The class I am taking is more like whatever you really want to learn in bio instead of the strict textbook class, so one of the kids in my class is interested in nature and wildlife and he recommended pulling apart an owl pellet [you know the things you pull apart in the third grade] .It was quite fun except I got a contorted one and when I started to pull it apart it was nothing but bones and very little fur but it was big! When I finally got through half of it I had got many bones varying from really little to quite big, but the most interesting was that I found four little mouse or rat skulls there might of been more but while I was going through it I broke a lot of bones. The other students ended up with either a bird , another full mouse and a head less animal which still can't be identified yet. So thats my story of my science class.
p.s
On the way home the mountains where covered in snow !!!!!

Acceptance letter from San Marco

So today after I got back from San Diego [ a trip not for fun but just to retrieve a transcript ] I did my usually routine of say hi to Bo then checking the mail and well something interesting came in the mail well it was a small envelope from Cal State San Marcos, as soon as I saw it I was sure that I knew what it was going to say that I didn't get in . Well I was dead wrong it was a small letter say I had been accepted . Surely I am trying my hardest to go to Cal Maritime Academy but it is always nice to have a second choice. Now all I am really waiting for is San Luis Obispo and I am good.

New Camera Lens

I know this is kind of late but as an insomniac I a starting to run out of things to do at night that doesn't require a lot of noise for me [which is impossible, I'm to clumsy and trip over everything]So I spend my time at night either reading or find something entertaining on the computer [mainly movies off of netflix , computer is still new and I refuse to put anything on it ] .
 So the big news is that I think it was last week on Tuesday or Wednesday , that my mom went to go exchange her video camera at Circuit City when she came across camera lens for my type of camera , and for awhile I have been bugging my mom to get me a new lens [since she has dropped my camera several times and the lens that was on the camera wasn't allowing my to focus and zoom in right ] and thats when she 
called me and asked what kind of lens I have on the camera now and I told her , which made me suspicious of what she was really up to and when she came home she handed me the bag and told me that it was my early birthday present and for those who don't know my birthday is in June . So since the day I got the lens I have not let the camera out of my sight for the fear of something happening to it would give me terrible grief and well boredom since I wouldn't know what to do with out a camera . 


San Diego Trip

So through the chaos of my whole life, my mom and I still find time to head down to San Diego and just find interesting things to do while we are there .  This trip we decided to go see the full size replica of the Nina [ Columbus's ship] . My mom like to think she knows where everything is , so she didn't bother taking directions , causing us to driving around the city for quite a while. Until she decided to stop at Harbor Police Station and ask them where it was . When we got there the suspense  that has been built up from driving all day quickly dispersed at the site of the smallest ship at the dock . Even though it was quite cool to see it and be able to board the ship to see the , well just the deck since it was really small and the crew used to bottom of the ship for sleeping quarters . It was interesting to hear that Columbus's crew slept on the deck for three months and used the bottom for cargo . It was about 93 feet and there was about 36 people in Columbus's crew. The replica was fully functional they try to sail it as much as they can. The ship is in San Diego till Feb. 16th .
