Ferrofluid: How it works

Ferrofluid explosion on me

Today I went and spent some time with Randy at the Engineering building because it is Engineering week and I played with what is called ferrofluid and the way I got this way is that two magnets went together and it splashed on me. It was funny.

Spring IWA formal Dance

Friday the 4th of February was the annual IWA spring formal dance. I went with my sweetheart Randy. It was a lot of fun. We had dinner with my IWA chapter and then we went to the dance. Jan Daines my IWA leader did dinner for us. I enjoy spending time with Randy and all of the others there at the dinner and at the dance. My favorite part of the evening was when we watched part of the movie Singing in the Rain. I got to see my favorite part before it was time to leave the dance. I love the part where they sing the good morning song.
That's all for now.

Life

It has been a week or so since I have last posted anything. It has been so weird not being in school. I have taken some breaks before, but it was crazy on the first day when my roommates were going to school I felt weird that I wasn't going. I have been looking for a job and it is going alright. I have been knitting some fun things lately. I am making a baby blanket and I am working on a throw blanket that I have been working on for about three years now. I have just been doing the project when I get bits and pieces of time and also when I remember that I am working on that project. Well that is all that I have to say for now. Have a wonderful day my friends.

Fun hat

This past week Randy and I had a lot of fun making hats from the knifty knitters looms. Randy thought that we should do a hat with a brim on it. Here are the pictures from the project.

gardening and such

So lately I have been working on a paper for a class and I have came across some really cool websites. Here is some of them.

I just love nature and the ability to see it grow.

The simple things of the gospel

On Sunday Elder Ballard spoke at the CES fireside. I really enjoyed his talk about remember the simplicity of the gospel. To enjoy the plainness of the gospel. As I reflected after wards I thought of how because of the simple and small things of the gospel that it provides such a boost. It gets the fire within burning bright. I know it is true.

Look through my eyes

There are things in life you'll learn and
In time you'll see
Cause out there somewhere
It's all waiting
If you keep believing
So don't run, don't hide
It will be all right
You'll see, trust me
I'll be there watching over you

Just take a look through my eyes
There's a better place
somewhere out there
Just take a look through my eyes
Everything changes
You'll be amazed what you'll find
If you look through my eyes

There will be times on this journey
All you'll see is darkness
Out there somewhere daylight finds you
If you keep believing

So don't run, don't hide
It will be all right
You'll see, trust me
I'll be there watching over you

Just take a look through my eyes
There's a better place
somewhere out there
Just take a look through my eyes
Everything changes
You'll be amazed what you'll find
If you look through my eyes

All the things that you can change
There's a meaning in everything
And you will find all you need
There's so much to understand

Just take a look through my eyes
There's a better place
somewhere out there
Just take a look through my eyes
Everything changes
You'll be amazed what you'll find
If you look through my eyes

Take a look through my eyes

I love the lyrics to this song. The lyrics remind me about Christ and what he can and will do for us if we go to him.

Christ Lives.

fun

Funny Happenings:
When I mail a letter to myself by accident.
Little kids saying funny things.
Animals doing funny things.
When my nephew say butt instead of button.
When he says root instead of Ruth.
Being silly with friends.

Me wearing my hemet

Here is me wearing my helmet that my teddy bear was wearing.

Life thoughts and other

Howdy,
It has been such a long time since I last wrote. So I got a new bike helmet and I thought I would show ya all what it looks like.

Work is going well. I enjoy the moments when I can learn things from either the animals, my boss Sandy, or inadament objects. The hose got kinked one day and I was thinking how it is better to find where the kink is and fix it right instead of keep going and not have as much water to water plants. To apply this to life, when something is hindering, kinking our way then it is better fix it right away and find the problem rather than to keep on letting the kinking go on.

The sheep, llama, chickens are funny. It is interesting to see one of the chickens getting its feathers back. For a long time the chicken has not had some feathers and now they are growing back. Apollo the llama is so funny when he relaxes. He like to plop onto his side and sleep like that. He will be sitting with his legs to the side and then he plops onto his side it is so funny.

I am enjoying that my little nephew Kayden will say my name every once in a while. He calls me "Root" because he can't say the h yet. It is so cute. It is crazy to think that the school year is almost here. I am excited and not excited at the same time.

Hope you all are doing great.

Finished product

I finished the headband. Yea. Have had a good day today. I love nature. Have a good day.

Lovely things

I am so greatful for IWA(Institute Women's Association). I have gained some great friends from IWA. I love hanging out with the girls in the chapter. I look forward to meeting the new girls that will be joining our chapter this next school year. It was fun to see some of the girls at a reception for one of the girls that was in our chapter this last school year. It is always so fun when I hang out with my IWA girls.

At work one day I found that the sheep were following Apollo. He is the Llama that is in the front of all of the sheep. He is the protector of them and because of that he was aware of a dog that was around on this certain day. He had the sheep follow him and then he gestured to them to go a little ways back from him. It was neat to see. Apollo is like the Savior in a sense. He is a protector like the Savior. The Savior shows us in different ways how to be protected from things.

I am almost done with a headband that I knitted. I just have to place a yarn flower on it and then I am done with it. I am excited, but am still trying to figure out how to make it look good on me.

here and there

In my swimming class I recently learned to do the butterfly stroke. It is a fun, but hard stroke to do. In doing this stroke I get to pretend that I am a dolphin if I want to. I also have tried my hand at cooking artichokes. It is a good little side for a meal.
