The bombing in Boston.
An explosion in Waco, TX.
An earthquake on the border of Pakistan and Iran that reached 7.7 on the Richter scale.
And lots of other things that I didn't catch on the wires.
Also, here's a little reminder to keep your priorities in order that I took a screen shot of from the CNN website.
At IWU, lots of things have been happening too.
Lightning struck the sidewalk near a dorm.
A car started on fire in the parking lot outside of my dorm.
*I have way better photos of it. I should submit them or something.
You can see the flames!
Everyone who was crowded in the 3rd floor study room to watch it all was feeling bad for the girl who owned the car. She was okay. I also think she didn't appreciate us watching, but not a ton of stuff happens like this on our campus.
As you can tell, there was rain on the windows in these photos. There has been a lot of rain in the last 72 hours. Due to that rain, there was a lot of puddles and people were running around, screaming, and belly flopping in to them. Sorry, grounds crew.
Last night, we lost power and then the generators kicked on. Then, the power flickered two different times with the generators, and then we lost all power at like 12:30.
It was really freaky.
This progression speaks for itself.
The lights in our hallway are still on because they are emergency lighting, but we employed little battery tea lights and glow stick necklaces. It came back on a lot faster than they anticipated. This morning however, there was no hot water and my shower was very cold. I would have skipped it, but I really needed it. Dirty hair, do care. Now my hair is clean but I am freezing. It's no longer raining, Hallelujah, just very chilly.
So yeah, that's life recently. Here's a few other, less stressful snapshots of life.
Super fancy and also I was major creeping
College life real talk
All of these things are "strawberry"
Super great blanket I got at Walmart for $3.50!
This is in our C-Store. You can order stuff in bulk to spend your points.
Sitting at the table for this group project we see one member's phone and one member's iPad. Yeah.
It has been that packaging for a long time and they changed it! And I realized how easily I get nostalgic over stupid things.
Look at that huge crow. Very Poe.
*None of the rest of these photos are mine.
MMM I found this on the Internet and it looks delicious.
Pretty packaging in Starbucks coffee
Stanley Cup made out of pretzel bread
I like this but I don't know if I would ever wear it.
Again, these are really cool but I don't know if I would ever wear them.
Hahaha. Ross. Also, Friends fans, did you hear this?
Super cute and cuddly!
This made me laugh for a long time.
Dad identified these for me as petunias. We had them along our front walk when I was growing up. That sounds like something I would say if I was old.
I might do a post of just pretty photos of flowers that I like.
Yeah, I'm going to do that.
