Toothless

This is my new fishie. His name is Toothless. Which is a joke because bettas actually have teeth. They are interesting little boogers. Along with their gills bettas have an organ called a Labyrinth that allows them to actually breath atmospheric O2. This is why they can survive living in such a small bowl (though that is not really healthy for them in the long term).

He is a very curious fish. Silly thing decided he wanted to explore the plant jar, and after putting half of his body in there had to do some considerable wiggling to back out. No worries though, he managed it just fine.



He is looking at the camera head on in this picture. His face is so dark that it is hard to see much detail at this angle.

Snow in GA

This is what we call a blizzard here in GA. We received about a inch's worth of ice last week-end. Due to the ice and MLK day classes have been closed for the last week and a half for me. I have now idea how we are going to make it up. I will find out tomorrow.

School Up-date

On my Psych final I made an 89%, to bring a class total of 92.7%. On my chemistry final I made a 97%, to bring a class total of 97.99%. This chemistry class was the last one I needed to apply to the Dental hygiene program at WGTC. I completed the health care providers CPR class before Christmas break, also needed to apply. The only thing left is the PSB-entrance exam. I will take only one class (microbiology) this next (winter) quarter and spend the time that I would use on another class to study for the PSB. I apply for the program April 1st.
