Home in Mo Again

I don't think I am very good at blogging, but them again I don't have a lot to say. I've begun to read Les Miserables. I think it's time I read it. I have just finished the first book and have enjoyed it. Monseigneur Bienvenu is an interesting character. I like how Victor Hugo introduces so much through this character even though I am pretty sure he is not a prominent player in the rest of the story, which makes me like this book all that much more. I don't think an author could get away with spending so much time on such a character today. Of course, I don't find much great literature printed these days either. Well, I have 58 pages down out of 1463 in two days. Great Progress. Or something. I have a feeling I am going to regret picking this book, that months from now I will still be working on it. I spent six months reading a 992 page book once, of course that was a biography of Truman and after awhile I wanted to shoot someone, either him or me. Good thing he was already dead and I didn't have access to a gun! So I give this book nine months, but I need to be done with it in one 'cause that's when I go back to school!

So yes, another semester is over. Thank goodness I am done with Calculus II. I am a person of such extremes: I got all A/A- and then a D-. Nothing else in between. I am either a freakin' genius or a complete loss! Oh well, I'll make do.

I am actually starting to eant to go back to school, mostly because there is not a lot to do here except read, which I love, but I want to DO something, but I don't know what. I want to do something useful, fun, and invigorating. Maybe I'll work on some family history tomorrow. Then when I go to church no one can make me feel guilty. I liked that from back in the fall when I took a Family History class. I'd be that much closer to perfection!

Well, I'll put in a few pictures of this past semester.

Umm, I was 'helping' two fellow majors with their project, but we ended up looking a the beauty around and discovered this, which we named "The Darwvin Helm of Hadhod."

Break

The semester is over, thank goodness. I spent a few days down in Provo visiting friends and family. It was great. For unknown reasons I brought my camera which has been broken since August and on the way home for kicks I picked it up and turned it on. Low and Behold! It now works! Silly camera. So happy. Of course this revelation occurred after I had been to the very pretty Antelope Island so no pictures of anything beautiful. But just to test my camera I did take two pictures of my apartment where I have been living for the past semester and will continue to live for an indefinite period of time.

Almost

Semester is almost over! I don't really believe it. Besides, it doesn't matter much since I am staying on for the Spring semester which starts one week after this one gets over with. Fun. I'll be taking Calc 2 at 7:45 in the morning. Joy of joys.

Back

I's back in the burg, snowed all over me today. Learning Latin, Physics, Calculus, The Family: Proclamation to the World, and how to be fit for life can really take it out of a girl. I think I should be in bed, an hour ago.
Also, Johnny Flynn's music is awesome, I love "Tickle me Pink."
