In need of a Pick-me-Up

Got to string together bird vertebrae (after getting pooped on by a bird).

Enjoyed talking about coprolites in class.

Got to play with Cenozoic fossils.

Those were the good parts of my day (minus the link to my other blog for the bad stuff).


STICK MAN ADVENTURE!!!!

That just made the day better again

Inspiration and Satisfaction

Dear Lovely Yesterday,

It was such a good one! The day began with a steady drizzle which eventually faded away into humidity.

Although I showed up for class with soggy shoes it was immediately taken from mind when I saw that my Human Geography prof walking around the cafeteria with a giant, inflatable globe.


After taking my place in class I waited with my friends for him to arrive and low and behold, there he was with the globe!

It was a fairly interesting lecture with a portion where he showed us what David Rumsey had done with a bunch of historical maps and google earth!
GIS in 3D

After that class it was on to a super inspirational and just awesome volunteer meeting with ISV.
The two presenters were extremely enthusiastic and described all the different projects volunteers get to work on and the different adventure tours that would follow. We'll see if I get accepted and have the money!

The last class was my Environment, Society & Sustainability Geography class.

It was certainly entertaining. We watched a video of the "courtship" and "love-making" of two slugs, accompanied by some mood setting music. Let's just say I now want to make babies dangling from a slime string! Oh my.

Overall, today was a day I have been needing for quite some time. Completely inspired and satisfied with the day I went off to work and the afterglow of these amazingly happy feelings lasted for quite some time before dwindling into my sleepiness.

The song I quoted in my previous post is what was bouncing around my head as I worked.

Good night!
Ashley! :)

Nobody's gonna slow me down, oh-no

Best Not-Being-Brought-Down song EVER!!!!
