Blah, blah, blah...andblah.

Sorry I haven't posted in like a month, but I've been a little busy. I'm still busy, but now that I am back at school the original reason for creating this blog has been reinstated and so I'm going to post more. I'll divide this post up so that it will be easier to read. I have a feeling it's going to be rather long.
My Fishtank
So my Australian Rainbow fish is the only one left in my tank. The rest all died and I buried them in the garden and played the Rutter Requiem for them and it's all very sad. I think that Rainbow looks lonely and he probably is. Elisabeth informed me that it is mating season and that is why Rainbow looks so pretty right now. Jillian thinks that I should get him a girlfriend. I think he's too young and he would eat any babies that he would have anyway so I'm planning on getting some nice Neon and Cardinal Tetras to swim around and keep him company. Tetras are little fishies and they will school if I get enough. When I first got my tank it was my original plan to put them in there, but I got distracted by the Mollies I guess. Depending on what Elisabeth says I might be permitted to get one more relatively large fish to go in my tank, but I'm going to wait until the tetras are all settled in before thinking very hard about that.
School
Going pretty well. I don't know if I'll be able to stand Organic Chemistry at eight am all semester, but I made it one day without falling asleep. I even have a vague idea of what we talked about. I'm taking 16 hours this semester but I am also sitting in on a 4-hour calculus-based physics course which sorta makes it 20. There are only three other people in that class so Dr. Wells said he'd even grade my homework and tests if I wanted to do those too. I don't know if I will.
Ashley and I are having a lot of fun as roommates. We have a great hall of freshmen girls that we are playing mommy too. It's kinda fun. We got a phone call from one of the guy RAs last night at one saying that someone had left the oven on and Ashley had to go turn it off. The base floor of our dorm has guys. They ran out of room in the guy's dorm so they had to put them there. They have their very own entrance, and the stairways have been blocked off, so we hardly know they are there. Except when Matt decided to test out the bass on his stereo. Bethany did a fun little stomping dance.
I've talked to Eric a grand total of three times since I got here. I met his roommate Brandon who seems kinda quite, but then he was standing next to Eric so who knows... So I can't really tell you how many people Eric has met yet, I've been a little busy holding snakes and whatnot. Maybe I'll see him at the All-College picnic on saturday.
Other Stuffs
So Ashley is going to have a van and we are tentatively talking about her driving me, Jillian, and Elisabeth to St. Peters for fall break. And Eric can come to if he wants I suppose. I think that it would be really fun. Jillian wants to see Forest Park and all the other cool stuff that we have in St. Louis (as she lives in Florida, actual trees really excite her).
Having a new computer is amazing.
Crocheting is fun.
I am sleepy, so I'm going to bed. After I do my homework.


This is a top that I crocheted. It looks like it was hard to make, but it has a lot of holes so it wasn't really that bad. I like it. I had to change the original pattern a bit. The sleeves are actually a smaller size, and they are longer than what the pattern said. I also added the ruffle at the bottom so it would match the sleeves. It's pretty fun.

This is Tilion, my computer. I love him very much. He's very fast and it's very nice. He downloads stuff really really fast.

These are the dragons that I crocheted. The little green one is named Egan. The blue one is Ena, and the mommy is named Ciara.
