I'm quite a bit late with my blog today. Normally I post it every Wednesday morning, but it's 10:29pm this time. lol I am struggling with the "Consumption" video that I have to make (film, picture), Edit, Reference, answer questions in written form about it and then present it to the professor. The problem is that I have scrapped my last four attempts because I can't get it to look like I want. I don't just want to turn in crap so I'm being rather anal.(No pun intended) I am about 3/4 of the way through my fifth attempt and I think...I THINK...it's coming along much better. Oh yea, it's due tomorrow by midnight. So, that is why I'm so late with this blog. I've been hammering away all day whenever I can and in between class. So unfortunatly, I'm going to have to cut this blog short which I don't normally do, since I like to write, but I have got to get the video done. I hope everyone is having a splendid week so far. I'll see you on the boat Friday.

Life This Week


I decided to stay in Texas for spring break. I'm catching up on a lot of family, house and computer stuff. It's nice to get a break from classes, but I'm ready to get back to it.
My thoughts and hopes are with all those affected by the Earthquake, Tsunami and Nuclear situations in Japan. If you want to donate, I would suggest giving to a trusted organization like the Red Cross. I posted this information on an earlier comment, but I’ll repost it below.
Yahoo has a page of all the organizations that can use your help and a link to donate. Go to Yahoo.com; look in the left hand corner and you'll see "Help Japan" written in red. That link will send you to this link: http://news.yahoo.com/s/yblog_newsroom/20110311/wl_yblog_newsroom/japan-earthquake-and-tsunami-how-to-help.
I found it interesting that even in the shelters; the Japanese people are still maintaining their recycling program. It makes my excuses for not recycling as much, kind of ridiculous. The way the Japanese people are handling this is something we could all learn from.
