Picnik

I just discovered a new photo website called picnik.com.  I am so addicted!  You can go on and edit you pictures, as well as do fun things like collages.  Here are some of my favorites.

Pier Day

Today we all got out of the apartment and went to Pier Day at Avila Beach.  Thank you Stephanie!  We, along with dozens of children 7 and under, pet starfish, snails, and a very slimy sea cucumber.  Considering it was in the 90s, we also walked on the beach before grabbing lunch and heading home.  Much better than a day in the apartment!

I've Returned!

Wow.  It has been way too long since I put up an entry.  To summarize the last two weeks, it has been great socially and stressful academically (which probably have a connection).  This weekend is looking like a continuation of that trend.  Last night some friends and I went out to dinner and then to the midnight showing of the new James Bond movie, which was fun.  Well, the movie was average, but the outing was fun.  Besides a gingerbread house-making party tomorrow night, it looks like I the rest of the weekend will be filled with my attempts at writing a rough draft of my research paper.  Sounds like fun!!
