Well Folks, I'm in Atlanta now, the first episode of my 6 week long Geology trip. I am in Atlanta because it was cheaper to fly out here then where I live. From here I will be changing flights in Denver, CO and then landing in Rapid City, SD. I know you may be thinking, what rocks are in South Dakota? Haha, well I will be in the Black Hills region. See how awesome the look ^_^. I don't know about them yet but I can't wait to learn how they formed. After that I will be going to Yellowstone and then the Grand Tetons.
I'm so excited yet nervous becaue I will be meeting new people and having to make new friends.
Only one disappointment, well maybe two. I am going with a friend and she brought her boyfriend along to hang out with before we leave. Well I don't really enjoy them loving on each other >_>. It can get annoying. Plus, we have a hotel room with two queen beds in one room and a pull out sofa in the next. It sounds like they want me to sleep on the pull out sofa. Ewww, hell no. I'm sorry but I would rather sleep in a nice comfy queen bed. If they need alone time I'll be happy to give it to them lol!
I hope everyone had a wonderful Earth Day. I for sure did. It was a beautiful day today, a little chilly but still sunny and nice. We had a cookout in our Department to celebrate, being Earth Science majors and all
. Just hot dogs and chips. It was nice getting to hang out with friends and skip class. As part of Earth Day I waited to plant my garden until today. I have green beans, bell peppers, tomatoes, squash, eggplant, lettuce and spinach. I can't wait for the little seeds to sprout. ^_^ I wish every a good rest of Earth Day. I hope you contributed in some way such as picking up trash, recycling, or planting something.
Haha I hope you said the title in Professor Farnsworths voice cause thats what I thought when typing it.
Guess what! Last month I applied for a scholarship through my school and I got it! I receive 2000 dollars to help pay for a summer camp of my choice. It's not just any camp, its called Geology Field camp and its towards my major. That means I will be spending six weeks playing with rocks where ever I go. This makes me very happy because I couldn't go without the money.
