This was my first week of vacation time since I started working at my current job back in May. It definitely wasn't long enough. During my time off I went camping in the states (naturally it rained on Monday which happened to be the day we left to go camping and therefore we set up camp in the pouring rain), went shopping in the states and came home yesterday so I would have today to myself. I used today to go buy textbooks at school, get a pedicure and go to the aquarium with some nerdfighters.
While I was at the Aquarium I watched a Beluga whale show, saw lots of fish, watched some adorable sea otters, saw some snakes, frogs and monkeys, and currently there is a bird exhibit. While I was in the bird exhibit, I felt a tap on my shoulder. Naturally I turned around and there was this Asian couple standing there. The woman looked at me and this is what she said: "Can we take a picture with you? We're from Taiwan." I really didn't know what to say to that so I just agreed and now I guess I'm going to be in a random Taiwanese couple's vacation photos which I find weird. I understand that some people would think that it's awesome that people want to take photos with them but I'm in no way famous and I'm the one who isn't comfortable being the center of attention. I'm the listener and not the one offering up insane stories at parties of all the things I've done.
On my way home I bought the first 4 seasons of Bones (I'm really looking forward to a marathon) and now I'm really wishing that I didn't have to go to work tomorrow and wondering why my jaw is throbbing. I've also been re-reading the Harry Potter series. It's been strange. Now that I'm reading it after I've seen all the movies I can't help but think of things that the movies got wrong or that were left out as I read. I'm continually comparing the two.
