Random Quotation: "whooo-wee... she surrre is a Newfie beauty."
-Marc

(referring to Non-eyebrowed character played by Mary Walsh on this Hour has 22 Minutes)


AND SO IT BEGINS!
THE RISE OF THE TERMITES!!!

These are the neatest eusocial insects EVER!! Forget "Antz" and "A Bug's Life" - Termites are totally where it's at, baby!





Not to mention, these termite mounds have central air. That's right, they're AIR CONDITIONED.
Humans have yet to match these engineering marvels. Something proportionally this size would be 25% the height and girth of the Empire State Building!

Did you know there's a website with photos of Starbucks all over the US and Canada? It's about Starbucks taking over the world.

No photo of our Starbucks though! :D




How do I still get some acne? This isn't fair! I'm 21!!

Can you believe I'm going to STUDY so that I can avoid working on the lab? STUDYING IS MORE FUN!

OAAAHHHHHHAAAAa

Anyone want coffee?

I don't WANNA write my LAB... (sigh)

Marc and I agreed that this was the cutest garden gnome either of us had EVER seen.
Partially the evil thing, too :)

I feel as though I'm floating on a cloud - I get like this - elated completely - at least once a day.
I think it's a necessary part of emotional well-being, to be lifted above all panic, anger and worry, and just to be free of thought, free of mind, and appreciating every second you're alive.

Taking each step, taking in the vibrant spring colours after such a monotonous winter, taking in little details too: the chipmunk that followed me part of the way home, the chipped paint on the white picket fence.

Everything - it's all so perfect. Even when other things look down, even when stress rises and nothing else seems to matter, I forget those negative things.

I focus on what really matters.

I'm alive.
And that's wonderful. :)

Modified Quotation from Hellboy Commercial:

"In the absence of light, there is AUXIN ACCUMULATION."


In Lothlorien's trees, there must be a decline in IAA and lots of ethylene making Endo Poly Galacturonase...
Hence why those leaves are tumbling down so gorgeously in the wind.


(Studying like mad for Plant Physiology)

Good luck on exams guys!
