Pinus stobis

Ya welcome to my world... Pinus strobis.. for all of you out there who have no idea what I am talking about it would be a white pine.. I think that I have to memorize like fifty names like this and be able to identify them.. and well that is just crazy don't ya think? Oh well I am in if for the long run... Hmmm I have to write a paper tonight.. read and study for a quiz.. man this stinks.. but you know I keep telling myself only three weeks.. but I am not sure that I should be saying only you know?? I mean in a way three weeks is long?? Today we had our first day of class and took a field trip to a lake.. and that was fun and all.. but then we started trying to name the trees and well that is when it all started to get tricky??

On the up shot.. I did get to talk to my parents.. actually just my dad... and that was good.. but I also got to talk to my girlfriend!! :) So that was nice.. to hear her voice and pretty much just to talk.. I don't know it is hard to explain but it is just really nice to talk to someone that you like and cherish and to know that they like you back and want to hear about you and your day.. and well and she is my girlfriend.. so it is just awesome.. and I really didn't get to talk to the dad much but if I get a free minute either tonight or tomorrow I will give him a call back and will talk to the rest of the fam and that will be nice because I will have more people that will want to talk to me... :)

The scenery up here is beautiful.. and I guess learning about trees will be interesting.. to some extent.. but is just kind of different.. if you will.. :) But it is amazing to be able to learn more about God's creation.. and to be able to experience it.. in one of its purest forms available to me... Well I guess I am out to do the inevitable homework.. and study that awaits me.. but just think all I have to worry about is this one class.. so there are definately advantages and disadvantages.. and it basically boils down to the fact that I have to do it and ace it and I can I know that I can!! But be praying for me because well it never hurts.. :)
