Smarter Than a 5th Grader?

You Betcha.

I highly doubt a lil 5th grader could pass all 3 sections of the multi-subject CSET on their 1st try.

Yep, I PASSED everything!!!

So Halloween wasn't a total waste :)

I am so celebrating in Vegas this weekend with Lisa!! Woo Hoo!!

K, back to Science.

Thank You Jesus!

What a crazy couple of days it has been! (Haha, what else is new right?)

So I went to Palm Springs for the weekend for the CMC math conference with Johanna and Courtney from class. We stayed in the sketchiest hotel EVER, volunteered waaayyy too early in the AM, went to a few talks, saw a gorgeous security guard, left early and hit up the strip... we found a place with a great happy hour, chilled there for a bit and then walked around the city some more. Well, we met a lady named Sandy at the welcome center and she convinced us to buy tickets to a show that night for $10. The show was a variety show with a man named Jeff Trachta... who I guess is really popular around old people. But they loved us at the show, so it was cool :) Then we had a few more drinks, some frozen yogurt, became sheriffs, and came back to our car only to realize it was towed! That was eventful getting it back. But alas, we got the car back, then made it back to Long Beach somehow (I was out in the back).

That's the short version.

Moving on-

My Pa (grandpa) had brain surgery today to get a tumor removed. It wasn't said to be life threatening, but they don't know whether or not the tumor is cancerous. We're waiting to hear about the biopsy. Anyway- he made it through the surgery and seems to be doing great in recovery!! I just wanted to say how grateful I am and am thus dedicating this night to be spent at home, with family :)

And only ONE paper/project. The rest can wait.

Thank you God for watching over my Pa.

I am not ready for you to take him away yet.
