Stingrays!

So, I went surfing the other day, and the worst thing ever* happened to me. I got stung by a stingray. I was getting out of the water and it stung me. It felt like a needle going into my foot. I walked out and tried to convince myself i had just stepped on a rock, but my foot started to burn really bad. I decided to drive myself up to scripps and go to the urgent care there (i know my insurance works there) only i forgot about rush hour traffic. that sucked. i finally got to urgent care*I realize many worse things could in fact have happened - i.e. shark attack, drowning, struck by lightning, helicopter landing on me, seeing billy bob thorton in speedos....

Dolphins!

So, I went surfing today, and the coolest thing ever happened. I gazed out into the ocean and saw some dolphins, that was neat. I lost track of them for a bit, trying to catch some waves. Then, a whole bunch of them were around me. I'm talking at least six wild bottle nose dolphins, the closest one was two feet from the front of my board! I could see it's blow hole and hear them exhaling. They played around me for a few minutes before taking off. It's really funny because I had just been thinking how much I wanted a cool dolphin story (every surfer I've talked to has at least one). It was awesome, definantly a top ten moment in my life. *sigh* I'm so hooked on surfing.

a little happier

Ya! my teacher called back. She totally disagreed with my thesis and only had a few words to change about it. (it's good she disagreed, this is a policy change/persuasive essay and everyone's supposed to disagree). My thesis is:All U.S. college instructors should be required to give students who are employed more than 40 hours a week extensions on project deadlines.she was impressed with the term 'project deadlines' as opposed to 'homework' she thought i had taken a really long time to think that up. i just let her keep on thinking that. i have no freaking way how im gonna prove this.
