Favorites: Family, Traveling, Sunny weather, the beach, reading...

Please note that physics and airports are not on the above list. And I think their revelance to this situation is in the opposite order. I am blessed to be able to fly at a very cheap rate because my Step-Mom works for the airlines, BUT, flying STAND-BY can be more a curse than a blessing at times. In needing to leave family vacation early to get home for my second Physics exam, I got kicked off the last flight out of Myrtle Beach airport. So, I am sitting here writing this, back in our condo, preparing to accept at 0% as my second test grade. At least I have the beach?

I'm not going to let this whole situation run me down, it's not worth it. I mean, I am stuck in 90 degree whether with a pool at my door, right? How much can I really complain?

On the front page of MSNBC.com today was an article about Haiti; Haiti food aid lags, hunger deepens
 Can you imagine starvation being a top killer in our world? It blows my mind. 




*Women carrying baskets on their head, a skill I know I could NEVER master. Seriously, get out a basket, put all your groceries in it, and try to walk even 10 feet. Then imagine doing it everyday! Quite the feat, huh?
