Nevertheless, Pumpkin Chocolate Chip (1Pointer) Cookies: You rock my world! Four day weekend: You were full of peace and happiness, mostly. It's now the 12:02 AM of Thursday and it's almost time for another fun filled weekend. Hot water tank: You are annoying, because you always run out before the tub is full! Family: I miss you! Come visit me! Roomie: Wake up and keep me company. Who sleeps at this time anyways? :)
Counting down the days until skiing. Sure hope the weather holds up in the mountain region, because I've been waiting four years to go. It's gonna be a-w-e-s-o-m-e, assuming I don't fly off the mountain, of course.
So, I once had a teacher who told me that the sky was blue, because it reflects off of the ocean. Interesting, huh? Well...as I was talking about light with someone today, she said, "Isn't the sky blue, because it reflects off of the ocean?" It's still going around, after all of these years! The answer is NO. However, the sky is blue because: As white light (made up of different colors) enters the atmosphere, most of the longer wavelengths (red, orange, yellow) pass through. Blue light has a shorter wavelength and gets absorbed by the gas molecules and spreads across the sky in different directions. This...is why the sky appears to be blue. Whatever color is not absorbed, bounces off of an object...and is the color that you see! Cool, huh?
P.S. The Sun is kind of a scary creature. If you ever go into outer space...stay away from it ;)
So there is your science lesson for today. <3
Life has been full of twists and turns, never allowing it to get too comfortable or predictable. Always changing, with new adventures, unexpected events, and challenges, it keeps me on my toes. And it stands...God is Great!
