The new shpeel

Well school is definitely in session :/ Enough of that debbiness, I got an 89 on my Organic Chem exam which I super fuckin excited about! However, I am bummed that I couldn't manage to really push it to an A, hell i missed it by one point.
On another note I am rather excited about my Trig class. I never thought I'd enjoy or understand math but for someone reason it just clicks. I'd like to think it's because I set a goal and I won't let a math class get in the way.
I have also been in encouraging the love of my life to join me in Casino dancing(cuban salsa) which I am really falling in love with. I have never enjoyed dancing this much. It just seems like Cuban music offers such a wide variety of dancing that you can never be bored. I'm just happy that it is something we can do together that I love. I can't wait to see where this goes :D

Another Planet Heard From!

Well not really-just me. I have an awful habit of telling myself I am going to blog about something, but then I don't. Horrible I know, but that's life. It sweeps you up and you have to keep up.

This summer I have acquired some new skills: canning mostly! We haven't gotten nearly as much accomplished this summer as we would have liked but we have done quite a bit. The garden this year was very fruitful, almost TOO fruitful. Not really, we just didn't harvest often enough to preserve things. The upside is that we have tons of tomatoes to can from the garden to go with the 120 lbs that are sitting in jars out in the garage. Sister made homemade grape jelly, it was fucking amazing. Rather impressive since she always claims she can't cook(this is the same woman who makes the world's best creamy shrimp orzo from scratch)!

School endeavors are off to a decent start. First exam is on Monday for Organic Chemistry, but that won't keep me down. I'll get it down. In fact, I have become a coffee consumer again. But not the crappy folgers, oh no it's better. Starbucks Kimodo Bold roast is heaven to wake up to every morning.

Lately there has been lots to write about but not nearly enough time to even log on. Some interesting posts would have been about The Scarred Man, Casino de Rueda aka Salsa Bootcamp, and of course food! But some things are better reserved and unexploited. But someday I have a feeling they will show up in a book. I did write a letter to my dearest BonBon, though.

Old Souls

I have always heard about them, and it seems pretty typical when they are with you all the time. But then I remember that they aren't old at all, and even old souls need wisdom.

Right now, I don't know what to say.

oops!

It has been a while since I have updated. Not too terribly much has happened except me wallowing in self pity over my grades in repro and biology.

Finally I figured that it wasn't doing me any good, so I hunkered down and studied. I'm looking at a C- so far in repro based on the current curve. Hopefully everyone else gets crappy grades too. I know that is a little selfish, but its what I hope!

My amazing friend from high school just got done for the year at USC and is back in town! I have to dogsit for my boss this weekend so we are gonna hang out and catch up. I can't wait!

Lots of things are coming up in the next three weeks; I'm not sure if I should be excited or stressed. My grandparents will be visiting to see my dads graduation, planning a celebratory hike with B since the term is coming to a close, regstration for the fall, the hardest exams I have ever taken, and finally summer.

Have I mentioned that I will be attempting organic chemistry, calculus, and animal nutrition!I was planning to take applied repro, but there is a scheduling conflict. I'm hoping for the best and really trying to stay positive about studying

To be continued...

Ihave been thinking for quite sometime about what I will truly blog about. Currently my life revolves around the farm and college and I love it most days-so why not blog about what's important right now.

School is still quite a jumbled mess, but I'm beginning to get a direction.

blackberries!

Not the Himalayan kind but the phone kind. I finally got one after waiting so long but typing is so horribly awful-it's like learning how to type all over again with no predictive text :/ lame!

Term started last week and it's so exciting. Lots of amazing hands on learning that is applicable to multiple species so it will be especially useful.I'll touch on that later.

With it being the second week of term I already feel like I don't sleep enough so I'll cut this one short.
