...a day in the life: Where have I been?

I would like to say that I have been busy doing something amazing that would make for an exciting post, but really I have been reading and working.

I did go on vacation in July to Maine, which was amazing! I went whale watching Quebec for the first time and it was so COLD, I didn't think it was possibly, with it being in the 100s every day in Georgia. I enjoyed visiting with family and meeting new family. I got to see my brother and sister, who are much younger than me and my dad. My aunts/uncles and cousins. I just love it up there! It is sooooo peaceful in Madawaska, Maine!

This is the lake, which is where one of my Aunts and Uncles lives. This view is from a spot when you go four wheeler riding. I didn't go this time around, but usually go every time! I could live here forever. Or at least, until I actually start missing the city. I'd rather visit the city and live here than vice versa!

Here are some whale pictures. Those are some fast little guys! (By little, I mean HUGE).

They were fin back whales, I believe! We saw TONS of whales. All the same kind, but I will take what I can get.

Here is a picture of a few of them "breathing?!"

I was hoping to see some of these:

Belugas are so cool to watch. I actually went to the Georgia Aquarium right before my trip, so I saw some ;) If anyone ever goes to Atlanta or lives here and you haven't been, I highly suggest you go! I want to go back after November, when the dolphin exhibit will open.

Well, so I guess I did have exciting news. Other than that, I have been reading/doing homework/working. Nothing too exciting, except for reading. I get into these kicks where I just want to read all the time. Right now I am reading this:
