My Last Bit of School

This summer I will be an intern at the Alaska SeaLife Center (ASLC) I wil be working with and learning about native PNW marine critters and algae. This is my training for Team Zissou, I already have the outfit so now I need the experience.

If you don't understand what team Zissou is, rent the movie The Life Aquatic...weird but great.

With only a few weeks left of spring quarter I am geting crazy excited about going to Seward in less than a month to work at the Alaska SeaLife Center!! I am taking three really fun classes right now, but as usual I am excited for school to be over. Some of the other ASLC interns are already showing up and most of them will be there by the 22nd of may. I however am on the quarter system, so while they have all been done with school for a few days, I am worried about finals and putting together my portfolio for my Ecological Images class. 

Speaking of, here are some of the photos that I have taken for that class over the course of the quarter. It is essentially a photography class for science kids, so we take nature photos every week.

This summer I will again attempt to take a photo every day, and post them at the end of the week. I dont know what my internet connection will be like but hopefully I'll be able to keep you all posted about my excellent adventures in the great state of Alaska!
