Today, I'm trying out a new thing: Green Smoothies.  Green smoothies are basically vegetable and fruit blends that are really ultra healthy.  My mom made them really often when I was younger, but she added whatever she thought was healthy, so you had raisin and leafy fiber gunk floating around, which really turned me off making them myself.  But ( Read more... )

I'm not kidding.  The beginning of the video is so deceiving.

I have my first two COLLEGE EXAMS tomorrow! But I feel strangely optimistic about it. I have all my equations down and I can pretty much rattle off to anyone how the universe was formed, the evidence for the Big Bang, how the Earth was formed, why the universe is shaped like it is, why soil is important to life ( Read more... )

Even though my closest friends are at other high schools and colleges, I feel like senior year is still my happiest and most successful school year. I don't necessarily feel lonely, because I like that I can sit by friends and just listen to their conversation without feeling awkward.
