Homework
First things first:
I got a haircut! It's too short on the sides, but it'll grow out quick--bonus, though, I can now see what I would look like if I had been in a concentration camp (legitimate thought that has been with me foreva)
ANYWAY
Salzburg's Haus der Natur is 4 floors of wicked-cool science crap--there are also 3 floors of interactive fun that was probably meant for grade-schoolers but shut up! leave me alone!
A lot of the exhibits had 3d wall paintings so the glass rooms looked like entire landscapes IT WAS SOOO KEWL ERMAHGERD
Giant squid...duh
cool fish in the aquarium
The creepiest creature
MINERALS (this one if from Arkansas!) reminded me of environmental sci
Wicked cool pics of humans' impact on the earth through these artsy-bird's eye pics
TAXIDERMY IS MY FAVORITE...uhhh no
TURTLE (my friend Chelle**and she wouldn't even be the one standing up)
Eye found the human anatomy exhibit far out, dood
If you believe...they put a man on the moon..man on the moon
Interactive wheelchair timed courses eee
Mikayla and I went to the Haus der Natur for a German project, and then rushed to grab some veggie chow mein, then went to Philosophy which is my most compelling class. Today we went over Plato's Theory of Forms, which we've all heard a zillion times, I know, but my professor presented Plato in the best, most refreshing way and OHMYGOD it's one of those classes that gets you thinking, y'know? and I'm going to talk at great length with Hanna and Chelle about class today and I'm excited and thank God(desses) I have an intellectually stimulating class.
So after Phl a group of us scuttled to the Stieglbräu for Obama's inauguration speech (we missed the first half), but the second half was well worth the walk. Somewhere between President Obama's support for gay marriage and Michelle Obama's bangs I realized I will always have permanent residence in America. Beyonce owning the national anthem (when she ripped out the ear-thing!?) may have convinced me, too. Regardless of your politics, Inauguration Day is a moment when we can all appreciate democracy and marvel at our country's beautiful history and traditions. Thank God(desses) for the land of the free and the home of, like, all my best friendssss!!1!!1!
ANYWAY now my hair is kind of crazy short--but hey! it's just hair. Short hair-don't care.
So bye.
