The perfect Saturday

It is such a beautiful day, this week has been unbelievably amazing but most of us have been stuck inside working. Today is the day to get out and enjoy the beautiful weather, the sun is shining but it is not too hot out. On this beautiful sunny day there are many things to do before it gets to be summer and is unbearable to sit outside without sweating your booty off. It could be as simple as taking a walk or just sitting outside with a nice cup of iced coffee or you could truly enjoy the day and invite all of your friends over for a barbecue. Nothing says summer like the smell of food cooking on the grill. Whatever your pleasure may be I sincerely hope all of you are taking advantage of this beautiful day, I know I did. I went to the park with two of my girlfriends for lunch, we decided to grab a few slices of pizza and have a little impromptu picnic. The three of us were definitely not prepared for all of the little kids screaming around us, there were these two little kids who decided to play soccer and unfortunately kicked their ball right on top of my friends lunch, it sucked for her but for my other friend and I it was hilarious! Shortly after that we decided to leave the park so the kids could have free reign and ruin other peoples picnics, it was a fun day and we got to sit outside and enjoy the beautiful weather, I hope all of you do the same as well.

Tragedy strikes Virginia Tech

The deadliest shooting rampage in U.S. history occured this morning on the campus of Virginia tech. 33 people were killed and several others were wounded. A young man opened fire in a dorm room then fled across campus and opened fire again in a classroom. Students were scared and confused because there was no public announcement about the incident. Students found out through email nearly two hours into the rampage, students that were in the building where the shooting occurred were jumping out of windows in order to save themselves. No one knew what was happening all they could hear were the sounds of people screaming and shots being fired.

A students recollection

Swimmers Beware!

For everyone that is terrified to go into the water because of the living creatures beneath the water - BEWARE!!! During a 5-kilometer swimming competition in Melbourne, Australia the sounds coming from the ocean were screams of agonizing pain. The choppy waters were infested with jellyfish, they were stinging the competitors all over their face and bodies. The invasion of these jellyfish did not stop the girls from competing, they pushed through the pain and swam as hard and fast as they could. The stinging gave them the motivation they needed to get out of the water as quickly as they possible could. One brave woman, and WINNER of the race, Larisa Ilchenko did not seem too phased by the conditions at all- she said she was just glad there were no sharks in the water! Now that's one tough aussie. How would one treat a jellyfish wound anyway...... hmmm??? remember what Monica Gellar did? if not click here!

Imagine swimming with these creatures!
