Brief snippets (with pictures!)

I no longer have any hope of "catching up" with my homework load. Though I do try to quickly read over old homework assignments that I've missed, I won't get to most of them, and there's more and more every week, and even just the ones for the week are more than I can reasonably do.

All that said, it should come as no surprise that this week is going to be a light entry.

In one of my adventures around the local, wonderful park, I discovered it's home to a massive an abundant supply of wintergreen. So prolific in fact that there are even lots of wintergreen berries. In my opinion one of the tastiest foods on earth. (A lot like a wintergreen lifesaver, but wilder, less sweet.) here's a picture of a particularly prolific plant:


It's rare to even see one berry on a plant, but so many... I was a good caretaker though, and left most of the berries for the birds, so they can spread the wintergreen even further.


In other news, the house I'm in is really old. So old the windows have started melting. When the sun filters through them, and the Venetian blinds, and maybe the waving tree branches, it creates beautiful patterns of light on my wall. I'm going to try and share some movies I took of it. I think it would me nice to watch on a loop with some meditative music in the background:

Finally, a newspaper clipping, I just thought the picture was hilarious. Found it in the hallway of Antioch, in the environmental science wing:

Good night, sleep tight, hopefully there are no bedbugs to bite.

Love to all of you, my friends. Take care of yourselves and do things that make your heart happy.
