1. here comes the sun. Everyday since we've been in Germany it's been rainy, cold, and just, well, gross. So no wonder we were all overjoyed when the sun decided to peek through the clouds at sunset yesterday. Stunning.

2. i love skype. It's amazing - and it makes it so easy to stay in touch with friends. Love it, love it, love it.
3. my new necklace. I went shopping yesterday and got a necklace (pictured above...it was so hard to capture it! It looks prettier in real life.). I love it. What do you think?
It'd been awhile since I'd purchased an accessory...usually I just focus on clothing. I think I need to get some more jewelry, though...slipping on a necklace doesn't seem like much, but it does wonders to an outfit. What are some of your fashion tips?
4. online classes. Although they technically started on Tuesday, I wasn't able to attend as I was traveling. Thus, yesterday was my first day of classes. I don't care for science, but biology is going to be a riot (Yesterday we talked about microorganisms and "recipes for mice"...ohh yeah.). I have so many amazing people in that class. Geometry...well, I don't quite have an opinion yet. I'll have to see. Math is not my strong point.
5. the time change. Back home, it's 4:54 am. Here's it's 11:54am. You gotta love it.

6. eggs. I've been kind of obsessed with taking pictures of them lately. I love their simplicity. The above eggs are from my aunt's chickens...I adore the green carton.
7. my giveaway. Have you checked it out yet? If not, you should! You still have until Monday to enter.
Happy Friday! I'm off to go celebrate my grandparent's 50th anniversary :)

Sunsets can seem like such a gift and yours is lovely. We're skywatch neighbors (we posted just after you), so, we're just out for a neighborly visit.

ReplyDeletethe first pictures is amazing. and so is your necklace! :)
ReplyDeleteWow! That sky!!!! incredible.
ReplyDeleteFun list of things. HAve fun at the celebrations! :o)
Love the necklace! I'm with you on the fact that slipping on a cute necklace can make an outfit. This always works well for earrings and bracelets. Fashion advice: a cute pair of sunglasses used as a headband can work wonders on a bad hair day! (oh, and I LOVE biology too. especially marine biology!)
ReplyDeleteGreat shots. That sky is dramatically lovely!
ReplyDeleteCute necklace!
ReplyDeleteI love accessories! Necklaces, bracelets, earrings, headbands, hairclips, brooches. My favorite accessories are my bow headbands. :-) They dress up almost any outfit.
I like to layer a lot of necklaces (like, seven?).
Science is the bomb, man! ;-) Biology is fun. Math, too. I don't know about geometry, because, you know, according to public schools, I'm "behind" in math. To which I say, "Go eat a textbook." No, not really. ;-)
That's necklace is gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteI can never get near the beginning on skywatch coss of the time difference (thats my excuse)7.30 in England and I post but it takes ages to reach USA and I was no 18 this week I think. LUV THE PICCIES the sky when I first saw it I thought it was a Bush Fire. Then the eggs well they are super. I am unable to comment on necklace (its a boy thing) Wish your Grandparents all the best I have been married 32 years so only 18 to go to catch em up. HAVE A GREAT WEEK. Don XXX
ReplyDeleteHave fun!!! In Germany:)
ReplyDeleteBeautiful pictures! LOVE the necklace :) Have fun in Germany!
ReplyDeleteI am in Bio and Geometrey as well! Well, minus the fact I am not taking them online hah!Bio is okay,and I hate geometrey! I'm more of an algebra person :).
ReplyDeleteHave fun in Germany!
The first pic is beautiful! : )
ReplyDeleteBeautiful sunset! :)
ReplyDeleteI like Skype too. I don't use it a lot but sometimes I'll talk to my cousins or grandparents, because they live all around the world so we don't get to see them very often.
Math is not my strong point either. I'm in Algebra II, and I'm doing okay...but I get confused easily. As for Biology, so far, I've developed a love-hate relationship with it. It's interesting but complex at the same time, so I have to pay attention...
Congrats to your grandparents! Beautiful pictures, as always! :D
