The Aurora Borealis did happen and people saw it in Canada. There are some great pictures over at National Geographic's site. Check them out. The pictures are breath taking!

Aurora in our very own NYC

Tonight the East Coast of the US are in luck!
Look out your window tonight at 12AM and 1AM and see with your own eyes the spectacular Aurora in the sky.
We're lucky that the Earth's magnetic field saved us from being wiped up entirely.
Read more about it here!

Enjoy and show me some of the pictures if you can!

Ahhhh Bugs, Insects, Spiders!!!

I always have a bug zapper handy nearby when I'm at home because I just don't like bugs, insects, or spiders too much. Ever since I found out that I was allergic to mosquito bites, I'm more cautious at home now. I just hate those pesky mosquitoes!! Every time they bite me, it swells up, and it won't stop growing unless I take medicine. So now, when I go outside I need to make sure I have insect repellent on or else mosquitoes will chase me down.

What are your thoughts on bugs, insects, and spiders?

Raindrops keep falling on my head

It's been raining a lot this month. People say April showers bring May flowers, but its May so get going RAIN! The rain is making the days go by so slow and makes me feel lazy. At least its keeping me home so I can study for my finals.

While walking to school I came across this batch of little plants and I loved how the droplets of rain sat on top of the leaf. It looked beautiful so I quickly snapped this shop on my iPhone.


New York is the place to be to experience all the diverse cultures. On the bus ride home today, a middle aged Spanish speaking man was teaching a middle aged Shanghai woman to speak Spanish. The woman learned very quickly and said a few Spanish words very well and the man shared that his girlfriend is Chinese. I thought to myself, only in New York will I be able to experience such a clash in cultures and I just love it. We all need to be able to learn and understand the many cultures all over the world.
