Exam Week

Tomorrow I am going to the hospital for a surgery. My mother is travelling down to come with me which is definitely good, don't think I would be able to do it without someone there.. It's my first one ever and I must admit I'm a little nervous, but I should be aloud to come home that night so it shouldn't be too bad. The worst thing is though is that I am not going to be able to write a couple of exams the next day. It's putting me behind and I'm going to end up trying to fit the rest of my exams in before Christmas...even though I'm pretty sure I'm going to end up writing one after Christmas anyways, just what I want to be thinking of over Christmas... Anyways I'm heading to bed now, wish me luck!

Top 50 Animal Pics for 2011

Came across these photo's this morning. They are the top animal pictures from 2011 pon a site called buzzfeed.com. There were some really cute pictures, although some were pretty sad too, thought I'd share them with yall.


If you wanna check them all out they have a couple sentences describing the pic too. I thought #1 was pretty cool.

New Earth-like Planet

"The National Optical Astronomy Observatory announced on Wednesday the discovery of Kepler-21b, a new planet that's close to the size of earth and is only about 352 light years away."

This is crazy to think about. Even though they said that the sun is too close and too hot for there to be liquid water on this new planet, the new discovery actually shows that there are planets out there similar to Earth. Imagine if there is another planet like ours that has life on it and maybe even humans...there's no way of knowing right now, so it could be possible!
Another note, it's amazing how we can see a planet that far away now.. how is that possible??
