video from Marty's Party, edited by James

April in a Nut Shell

Here is an update on events in April
I rearranged my room- it wasn't major, but I really love it. I like having both sides of my bed open, and having it closer to my computer, so I can watch videos easier. I just have to get used to getting up to turn of the alarm- which is a good thing, just frustrating.


Tim and I went to the Aquarium- he had questions to answer, so I helped him with those while I had fun taking pictures and videos
I am really into Jellyfish. They are SO cool. I haven't decided which animals I want to focus on when I am a marine biologist. It's between Sharks/rays, jellyfish, and sea otters/seals




this was cool, just as I took my picture, Tim's flash went off, so I got the benefits of the flash without a reflection





We celebrated Marty's Birthday again, and to out do last year's surprise, we covered the floor with balloons




Today, we had a surprise party for Marty. There will be a video- thanks to James. He is so awesome for filming and editing it for us.


I have also been reading a LOT of books recently. Unfortunately, my grades might show how I read instead of do homework. But here are some great books, and some OK books, that I have read.

City of Bones, Cassandra Clare











Peeps, Scott Westerfeld











The Warrior Heir series, Cinda Williams Chima











Fairest, Gail Carson Levine
