not again...

Well, once again I am finding myself with out a room for the evening. thankfully this time isn't due to a fire and my dorm isn't in any danger of being destroyed, but I am without power. I just hope it comes back on before midnight when I will really need to get to bed. One of the dorms that was destoyed in the fire finally caved in today and the roof fell on the power line. So now my entire dorm is without power. So I'm sitting in the afterhours cafeteria not doing homework. I had an o-chem exam today, so I thought I would give myself a break tonight and only write a lab report. well, that is done and now I'm just messing around on my computer.

But then the phrase "my computer" opens up a whole other can of worms (so to speak). My computer's motherboard was damaged in the fire due smoke so my parents had to mail me my younger sister's laptop. So I'm now on a itty-bitty laptop. Hopefully, my computer will be fixed when I get home for Christmas break in a little over a week!

back and school and fire updates

well, I am very sorry for my long absence. If you don't know about the fire please read this next paragraph, but if you already heard the story feel free to skip it.

On thursday the 13th there was a wildfire here at my school. I was in my room when it started and within 30 minutes the fire was on our campus. All together the school lost 3 academic buildings three dorms (not mine), and 17 professors and staff lost their houses. (Pictures are on my school website). The students were sheltered overnight in the gym, while the fire burned around us. On saturday I went home, and classes started up again this week for the first time since the fire.

It is very strange to be back. A lot of my friends lost their dorms, and they physics department is completely burned to the ground. So my two physics classes are very different.

Individually and as a school we all have a lot of healing to do, but the spirit on campus is one of hope. So much of our campus was spared and that means a lot to everyone, but we have also lost a lot as well.
