Bowls of Plenty?!

Yesterday evening I enjoyed the annual SRU, Americorps and other groups-sponsored event: Empty Bowls I enjoyed a bowl of vegetable and a bowl of potatoe soup while listening to some pretty smooth music. I don't know how I do it, but I've managed to see the same group perform for I think the last three years in a row! Meanwhile a different group is on every 35 - 45 min. Good enough for me though, I really liked the jazz quintet?! I think it was... anywho I wanted to upload the lil' clip I got of them, but it won't work so here's a picture!

I am testing out how to post pics via flickr.... so here's a trial run through. This is a picture from my trip to China this past summer with the PASSHE Summer Honors Program! This is a side street in Lijiang, China of the Yunnan Provence. You can see a few of the many side street food vendors!

Killer is my turtle!

Killer is my turtle. He was about the size of a quarter when I got him/ her (not really sure which it is) from a classmate, nearly 3 years ago now! As you can see, he's grown quite a bit! Aside from that, Killer used to be named Bonnie, that is before Bonnie killed Clyde! That's right, he/she killed the other turtle I had. Killer is a Red ear slider; they're originally from South America somewhere. Next video I'll have to get 'im right after I toss in his occasional goldfish treats; its a sight to see. Oh yeah, that's The Shins playing in the background, don't they just make you happy when you hear them?! and yes, I finish it off with a sneeze.
