Day Seventy One

We took photos of the grains of metallurgy copper. It's actually a lot cooler than it sounds. =) We took this powder, and pressed it into a mold under 29K pounds of pressure. We made two samples. We cooked one at 867 degrees and then Squished them both. The uncooked one cracked and crushed back into powder at 30K pounds of pressure. The machines we have only go to 60K pounds of pressure and the baked sample handled all that stress with no problem. =)

Day Seventy

I wrapped up Harley's birthday presents. =) Can't wait until I get his new address so I can send them to him!

Day Sixty Nine

Yesterday was Grandma's birthday. I had to work so I didn't have a chance to go up. Tonight my family and I went up and brought her a cake. We had a couple of laughs. =)

Day Sixty Eight

I've been working on my shamrock wall for weeks now. I cut every one of those out. =) Impressed? So am I. Can you find the four leaf clover?

Day Sixty Seven

I'm going to steal from postsecret today. It really creeps me out that the post mark on this was from Everett. I don't want him to leave. Everett feels like a million years away.

Day Sixty Six

Today was a work day. BORING! When I got home I made some underwear out of fabric and tape. It made my day. Hope it makes your too. =)

Day Sixty Five

We had some good laughs today. I'm finally starting to feel like I'm a part of the campus. Of course this feeling would come over me 8 weeks before I have to leave.

Day Sixty Four

I had a really great day at school today. My tests went alright, and my down time was full of laughs. After school we stopped by Gander Mountain to pick up paintballs for my brother. After dinner I finished my book.

Day Sixty Three

Study Study Study! I've got two HUGE tests tomorrow. Today was really exciting though, after feeling increasingly behind I got 2 A-'s and a 97 handed back to me. Talk about a moral buster. Wish me luck on tomorrow's tests!

Day Sixty Two

I had a really good day today. After electronics lab, I had thermo lab. After thermo lab. Woot school. I had a lot of fun in lab. In thermo we used the huge motor in the fluids lab room. It was so much fun. After dinner Dad helped me pick out supplies for one of Harley's birthday gifts. I wanted to post a picture of that, but I don't want to risk him seeing it before his birthday! You'll all just have to wait. =)

Day Sixty One

My day went like this: School, Get mom, Work, Eat, Work, Sleep. Though I am thrilled to have weekday hours at work, it leaves a lot to be desired in the entertainment department. Here is a picture of dinner.

Day Sixty

Mom, Dad and I drove up to Deryder Lake to check out the cottage we're going to spend a week at this summer. The lake is still ice, but look it has a tire swing.On the way back home Mom made Dad pull over so she could take a picture of this bridge we saw. The picture of her taking it was better than the picture she took. Lol.

Fifty Nine

After work Becca, John and I went to dinner at delgado's. I'll be honest, I was bored out of my mind the whole time. The usually screaming Becca was barely audible. John got four hours of sleep the night before and wasn't entertaining... But... *Shrug* at least I got out of the house.

Day Fifty Eight

It snowed. I hate the snow.

Day Fifty Seven

Michael made it in to a super awesome young leaders of America thing this summer. We celebrated with Ice Cream. This is mine. Yummy! It was black raspberry ice cream with peanut butter on it. Mmm Mmm good!

Day Fifty Six

Finally! I made yummy food.

Day Fifty Five

This is a picture of the electronics lab room. We just finished a kind of long boring lab. =)

Day Fifty Four

I got out of class early today. I spent my free time with my Sim Family. I'm working on my new legacy challenge. These are my third, fourth, and fifth generations. I'm working towards 10. I know, it's kind of boring.. but it felt really good to just relax.

Day Fifty Three

Today was my last day of vacation. I spent most of it lounging... I gave the rats popcorn, and they really liked it. It was really the most interesting thing I did all day. Hahaha.

Day Fifty Two

I really miss my Harley today. I always miss him... but it almost hurts how much I miss him today.
