To Be Or Not To Be...

Alright, so here we go again. Since school has started I don't know if I've had a "normal" week. Things have been kind of crazy. It's hard to believe I am already far enough along in my classes to start having tests but I guess I am. Things have been crazy because of juggling school, work, horses, scuba, and regular stuff but that's just life right? Riiiiight :) Speaking of school and schooly things my surfing class is never dull. We have been practicing standing up on the board the last couple of times. For those of you who are inquisitive on how we are accomplishing such a task without a necessary component, something called the OCEAN I will tell you now. Well, not RIGHT now but close enough. I hate when people just blabber and blabber when you want...what was I saying? I can't remember now. Some guy next to me keeps chatting to me. Who'da thunk Shwan would be a chatty cathy? Boys *shakes head* I am Kaiya and I like to clean stalls like Merlin and I like to have my horse, Scout, lick the boogers our of my nose. I also have a peg leg now because my cousin Jared turned into a cannibal with almost dreadlocks! Cows are almost as smart as me.*Said in a monotone voice like a, a, a, a DALEK* Some of the surfboards have little loops of rope attached to them that my instructor clipped a long rope to and then "harnessed" himself to the long rope and pulled us. We were suppose to pretend that when the board started to move that the wave was starting to pull us down. So imagine us, in a swimming pool looking at the snow outside waiting for the board to move and "surf down the wave". COWABUNGA! Is about all I can say about that. So because I have two classes consecutive classes before my surfing class I wear my swimsuit to class and bring clothes to change into. On Wednesday I unfortunately forgot a vital piece of clothing. What's under there? Not underwear. I experienced going commando for the first, and hopefully last time. After having jeans ride up my crack I now wonder why people would chose to go commando. Never again. Ever.
Some of you might know about Shayli's experiment to see what hand soap works the best. She contaminated petri dishes and then swabbed different soaps in different dishes and let it grow for three weeks. For clarification, she swabbed the whole plate with the soap not just one area. I want to see what you, the Ramble Onians (my blog is called Ramble On and you're currently reading it hence...) think of the pictures taken. The poll should be over there. To the left. Riiiiight there. Yup that's the one. And here are the pictures, though I'm only uploading the first two week because the third died. And if you don't think the Nu Skin brand did the best at killing bacteria don't be afraid to vote against it. My dad isn't as mean as he looks. It's all just an act to make people think he's still a tough guy even though he's surrounded by estrogen 24/7. Though he is as bald as he looks. That's not an act.

I have received some questions about the internship. I am leaving September 2012 and the internship lasts six months. But because of how long my visa lasts I might stay until an extra few months to work and possibly get volunteer hours. I recently heard that there is an organization that works with marine animals somewhere a long the Sunshine Coast. The internship is non-paid but I'm still really excited and hope it turns out to be a good experience where I learn a lot.

                                                       

 As of Saturday at 12:53 pm I am now a certified scuba diver. I finished my certification this Friday and Saturday up at the Crater in Midway. I went as deep as 40 feet. It was pretty cool stuff. I'm so glad it's done though. Phewwy!  Other news includes I'm going to start my half lease on Scout in a few days. That's pretty cool :) Oh and Merlin was pretty great Friday. I've included a clip but some background so it makes more sense. Merlin in King Arthur's personal servant and is trying to get the keys off of Arthur. Arthur doesn't know Merlin is magic.

That's all for now brown cows.
