Oil Spill Update Day 3


Once again, not really much of a change. Rumor has it that the oil will be here in 72 hours. I have once again taken photos. I figured might as well since no one really truly knows when the oil will be destroying our beaches.

*Water and Sand. Nothing really changed*

*Semi Close up of the Water*

*Not sure what this ship is, but Andrew seems to think that it is a Tanker ship. I am sure it has something to do with the Oil Spill.*

These blog posts are certainly boring, but I am sure they will start changing very soon.

Oil Spill Update Day 2


So today was rather a boring day at the beach. I pretty much went there, looked around. Snapped a few photos and left. It was pretty much blanket to blanket there. I guess everyone is enjoying the nice weather and the beautiful beaches before they are destroyed by the oil. Here are picture from today.

*The water is certainly clearer today since the wind isn't blowing. The sand has settled down back where it should be. Again, still no oil.*

*I took this picture so you can see how high the tide got yesterday. It seems to have gotten pretty high*

Well that is all for now! Update tomorrow

Oil Spill Update Day 1


So, today I started going to the beach to take pictures of what the beach looks like right now. Everyday I will continue to go back to the same spot at the same beach and take photos. It was a cloudy day today! Kind of was sprinkling while I was there. Anyways, Here are some of the pictures from today!

*Walking to the water. The tides were extremely high today*

*I found this when I was walking to the water. I figured it was a piece of glass, so I just walked past it, not wanting to pick it up. Turns out this would be a Jellyfish called "Man of War" They are pretty deadly Jellyfish.*

*The birds out at the beach really enjoyed the Jellyfishes*

*Close up of the Jelly fish*

*The Water.. It is dirty because the winds were strong today and the tides were high. The sand was stirred up. No oil in this*

*More tides*

Well that is all for day one for me. I will post more tomorrow after I go to the beach. I plan on doing this for as long as it is here in Pensacola. Hoping to get pictures of people helping animals, helping clean up the beaches etc.

Oil Spill?

I haven't up-dated in awhile. So, I figured I should update now. There was a Oil Spill near New Orleans a couple of days ago. They are saying that the oil should be here in Pensacola by Monday. I really hope I don't see any sea life. I will seriously cry. I can handle fish, but I don't know if I can handle seeing Dolphins, Turtles, Sting Rays and all those other precious Animals. I will be taking pictures over the next few days of how Pensacola changes. Hoping they are completely wrong on the oil coming here.

It rained Friday, which was awesome. I love the rain. I wish it rained all the time. We have a 'pond' out off our balcony! HA! It comes and go's of course. It's still fun.

I am hoping to go home this month and visit. I miss my family and I miss what friends I have down there. But, I really miss my family! I never knew I would miss them this much! So, now the plan is to find a cheat plane ticket. Hopefully. HA

What else is there to talk about. I am actually not sure. I will be posting more tomorrow!

THUNDERSTRUCK!

OKC THUNDER WON!!!!!!!!!!!
I am so excited to say that the Oklahoma City Thunder won their very first playoff game! This team is very young and they have only been around for 2 season! That is a great achievement for them! The series is now 2-1. Hopefully this Saturday in OKC we can win! Supposedly the noise level was over 109 at the Ford Center. That is LOUD!

Also, today was the NFL draft! WOW.. Talk about Oklahoma having an amazing day! Sam Bradford was chosen 1st! Woohoo! Gerald McCoy was chosen 3rd! Trent Williams was chosen 4. That is 3 Sooners in the first 4 picks! Did anyone see that one coming? Nope! #21 went to Jermaine Gresham! There were a couple of OSU boys in there too.

It was just a great day for all of Oklahoma!

I will write more tomorrow. I am way too exciting to be writing right now!

THUNDER UP!

Bed + Thinking

So, here I am thinking at 12:21am. It seems my friendship with my bestfriend doesn't mean anything. I go out of my way to send her messages and try to talk to her, but she is always too busy. Yes, I know she has a child, but she sure has time to hang out with people. It just doesn't seem right. I know I shouldn't be this upset about it, but I am. She is the one person that I thought would always be there, but now I don't know. I move away and I feel as if I don't even matter. I love her and her daughter to death! It's like she is my sister, but I'm not sure what she is now. It is just so hard being miles apart! Maybe I am just being selfish. Hell, I don't even know anymore.

Andrew and I went to an amazing dinner! We went to the Pensacola Ale House! Yummy! Here is what I had!




Yummy right? It sure was! It did have a little more fat than I would have liked, but I made it work. This was our dessert!




Capt'n Jacks Buried Treasure! Oh my gosh! It was simply amazing!

Nothing much more went on today! More soon!

Average Day

Nothing really exciting went on today. Some how I managed to sleep through the Blue Angels practicing. If you have seen them, you know what they sound like. Imagine that extremely low over your house/apartment. That's how it sounds here. They usually practice from 8:30-9:30. I woke up at 10:30. Guess I was tired or just extremely lazy.
I am hoping very soon that I will be able to go and do more photos of the Blue Angels. Especially when they are doing their tricks! Maybe even get a little closer to the hanger for some take off photos! Who knows!

Andrew starts his classes in 19 days, which means, I will probably be blogging a lot more, since he won't be around. But when he is around, he will be studying non-stop. I am hoping it goes smoothly for him. I am sure it will!

It has been beautiful here. I do wish it would rain a little more. I am sure when it gets closer to hurricane season, it will!

The names of the people involved in the jet crash from here were released today. It's a tragedy to see how young they were. Thoughts and prayers continue to go to them during this time!

That is all for now!
BTW, I wrote this from my phone! How cool is that? Thank you iphone for having a app that I can use! Now I have no reason not to write!

xoxo,
