It's been a while, but here I am again! Only 16 days left of school--boy will I be glad to see this semester end. It has been a pretty rough one.

My 6-word memoir on being green was chosen to be the featured 6-word memoir at smithmag.net today to honor Earth Day! I was so tickled that they chose mine. :)

Spring is coming, slowly but surely to Minnesota. I always love to see spring arrive here. The trees are beginning to show their little green buds. It won't be long now.

I started a window box herb garden--hopefully I see something besides dirt in it soon. I am growing impatient! My little tomatoes I started are sprouting little green sprouts, so I guess I did those right anyway. Although, I think I put too many seeds in. It looks like I am going to have far too many to grow on my patio. I will have to see if I can find someone else who wants to grow some this summer too!

That's all for now. I have to study. /sigh

Off to a bad start!

Well, it seems I am off to a bad start with my New Year resolutions! I haven't blogged since Dec. 26th and we won't discuss the others. hehe I am working on them .. slowly but surely.

I have decided to add a couple of little things to my list as well (like I don't have enough to worry about). I am going to learn to use chopsticks and make it a point to try and read at least six classics this year.

I find so little time for personal reading since I returned to college, but I think it's important to make time for it this year. Otherwise I find myself just hating to read and that is a bad thing for a college student.

I started my new classes last week and am really psyched. I think I am going to really enjoy two of them -- two out of three ain't bad as the saying goes. I have finally gotten past the general education and am actually going to start learning some useful tools that will help me in my future career. The courses feel different now, more of a challenge that I am ready for -- I think.

Time to fly ... I have a quiz to study for and have goofed off long enough ...

Until again,
