Astronomy and my view of our Universe

Tonight while doing some astronomy homework I managed to get lost in the last 2 chapters of the textbook, “The Beginning and the End” as well as “Life on Other Planets”. I don’t know how I got lost in these chapters, but they are more philosophical than the rest of the textbook. Its is very […]

Difficult Assignments

There is nothing I hate more than writing love scenes! Well, ok, maybe that isn’t true, but I don’t like writing them for academic assignments. In Creative Writing this week, that is our assignment.
