Europe Trip

Expect some pictures from my trip to Europe last summer to be on here soon....

Finals, Christmas, New Years, etc...

Currently listening to: Opeth - The Grand Conjuration

Well, the end of the semester went quite well. I finished it up with a 3.76 GPA, which I was happy about, especially considering I arrived 30 minutes late to my computer science one due to an alarm never going off.

Anyways, onto break and relaxing. Awhile before break, Cassie and I took a few day trips: one to Lac la Belle and one to the Porcupine Mountains in Ontonagon. Both were a blast and we got some beautiful pictures. If you'd like to see them, click HERE for the Lac la Belle pics and HERE for the Porcupine Mountains pics.

Then after finals, it was time to head home for winter break. Christmas was awesome and it was a blast to see all of the families again. We all enjoyed it a lot I think and of course got some cool gifts. One of the gifts I got was a tripod, so expect some better pictures now that I have something to stabalize my camera on things like sunsets and what not ;)

After Christmas, I headed down to the Thiels' place for New Years. There was a very grand ol' party there and I got to meet a few new people, which was fun (and of course, so was hanging out with the ones I know!). Cassie's room was recently overhauled and is very, very cool now. She's got an Amish-made bed with dresser to match, along with new paint, new carpet, etc... Dick, Scott, Phil (who I got to meet for the first time and was cool), Allison, and I watched a lot of "Band of Brothers", which they gave me for Christmas. Yesterday morning Cassie, Allison, and I joined Dick at the Sandhill Wildlife Area and checked out some of the traps he'd set for porcupines to do some research. Don't worry, just like the wolves we trapped, nothing hurt them.... It was just to take measurements and stuff. For pics of that, click HERE. Then we hung out with some of Cassie's friends from home, went to Culver's and played some Boggle lol, then went to see "Night at the Museum," which was pretty funny. This morning we got up and headed to Eau Claire to eat a delicious lunch at Famous Dave's with Cassie's grandpa. The food was to die for and it was a good time, but it was also time to head home after that. So here I am, updating my journal, making new photo albums online, and then crashing in bed.
