It's been awhile. I haven't really been that busy. I just haven't gotten around to writing. School has started up and I'm in the middle of the second week. It is pretty redundant right now. I am learning about the same topics in biochemistry and human physiology. It is really nice to know that the more you get into science classes the more they all talk about the same things. So far both of those classes are just reviewing the things I learned in Biology I. Today, I read something interesting though. In the 4th chapter of my biochemistry book it talks about myoglobin and hemoglobin. It made some very interesting points that I had never heard before about these two oxygen carrying molecules.

My mom and I are hoping to get up to Edina (near River Falls) to go to the Room and Board Outlet. It sounds like a fun time. Also, I am thinking about going to Madison sometime soon to go skiing. I have had this urge lately to get outside and ski, but I haven't been able to fulfill it yet. Going up to Madison would also give me a chance to visit Jane and Ben, which is always exciting. So, Ben or Jane if you are reading this, expect a call soon!

I've been reading Julie's updates about her student teaching experience. It sounds quite interesting and it is sometimes comical hearing what some of the kids say. Overall, it seems like a valuable experience that will prepare her greatly for the future.
