Geology Poetry

Alright- I need to get on the ball  (this is an odd expression. I tried to find it's origin but all i got were definitions... if you know, tell me!) with school. Its not like I'm totally slacking, I just need to take it up a notch or two so that I'm better prepared for tests and more up to date with reading and when stuff is due and the dates of tests... Yesterday, I was running late after a geology field lab and would be late to math, so I decided not to go. Unfortunatly, it turned out that there was a test that class, so I misses it. Also, yesterday evening I discovered that I had a History test today (I could have SWORN it was next week) so I had to cram. 
My goal is to have at least a B in Geology and History, and an A in English and Sociology... In developmental math all I have to do is pass so I can move on to real math because it doesn't effect my GPA. Wish me luck with my grades!
Lately, I've been thinking a lot about becoming a CPM (certified professional midwife). I think it would be a very rewarding career that makes more money than teaching and is more personal than being an OB/GYN. Casey says that it wouldn't be a good career choice for me, but I think he just has his heart set on his wife being a teacher :p
I was bored in geology today and I got to writing (really bad) poetry.

Ode to Geology
I was an ass,
and picked this class. 
I thought it'd be good.
But drop it, I should
because I'm sure I wont pass.

^This was supossed to be a limerick, but I couldn't remember the formula or whatever its called.

If You Thought That Poem Was Bad, Wait 'Til You Read This
The cool Autumn breeze
Brushes past with ease,
And sends me her scent
So much like fresh mint.

I breathe the sweet smell
And go to the Hell
Of her last good bye,
And I want to die.

She said nevermind
And left me behind.
Just want to kiss her.
I'll always miss her.

^really awful, and mello-dramatic and fictitional.

Casey just called me and told me to google pictures of 'adelie penguins, they are the cutest birds ever!!! Here's a pic!
