4 days, 18 hours, 3 mins until I fly back to St. John's and only a short few days after that will I be in school. I would rather not go back to school so soon, I'd much rather tour around St. John's while the weather is still fairly warm.
I only have 3 more days left of work. After working a full week with no breaks I am sure to be tired. Luckily once I see the huge paycheck Ill be getting from it, Ill be happy.
Sunday Night Movie
Monday, August 20, 2007
This evening Jordan, Jason and I went to see Superbad, the teen comedy. I have to say I had high hopes and those hopes were fulfilled. It was a very funny movie and I'd recommend it to anyone who enjoys that teen sort of comedy.
"And the lightning strikes"
Saturday, August 18, 2007
Around 2am this morning a thunder and lightning storm rolled in. So I got out my camera and started taking a video clip hoping to catch chain lightning. Here is a part of the video that I cropped out.
If you noticed about nine seconds into the clip you see a chain of lightning come down towards my window (in the basement of my house where my bedroom is). I don't think it hit the ground because I didn't hear anything, but then again the video could be off a little bit and making it look like it came down closer than it did. My parents think it may have come down in the ditch across the street.
Due to the quality of the video I have uploaded a few snapshots from the video of the three most important seconds.

The title to today's post refers to the countdown I have going until I am back on the rock. It's hard to believe how fast time is going by lately. It just seems like I was catching the bus after my last exam and thinking "wow five months of summer". Now I'm thinking "five months of summer.. when is it going to end?". I am used to having the mandatory two month summer break that I've had for the past thirteen years of school. Now having five months of no school seems way too long.
For about the fifth day in a row it is nice and sunny out, and again for the fifth day in a row it is extremely humid. I am in my bedroom, and even though it's in the basement it is still hot in here. It's times like these I wish we had an air conditioner. We do, except it's keeping our garage cool.
I think Ill go for a swim, and in doing so I'm going to try something. That something is underwater picture taking with my digital camera, without any special camera protection. Instead I have huge airtight scuba goggles that I am going to place the camera in and set it on a timer. Let's hope this works out well and doesn't end up destroying my camera.
