Summer Walks

This afternoon I finished reading Through the Looking Glass by Louis Carroll. I found it interesting, but not as good as Alice's Adventures in Wonderland. I am looking forward to the new movie directed by Tim Burton. As I haven't seen the animation version I'm going to wait and see this one as it seems more likely to be an adult version of the story.

On Monday I got a drug test for a job I applied for. I was pretty sure that I was going to get the job but I still haven't heard from them. Which makes me wonder what has happened. I don't know if they are still deciding or haven't gotten the test. I didn't call them because I don't want to be pushy but I do wonder what has happened.

It has gotten cool again after the warm weather last week which is nice. It has been raining a lot in the past couple days. It blows in and rains really hard and then clears up. The mountain storms like these are very nice as they cool it off even more which is nice. After the rain stopped Matthew and I went out for a walk. On many of our walks around we go cat watching. Matthew and I count the number of cats we see. Some of the cats will walk up to you and follow you if you pet them which we do. Today we saw only one, a white cat. This cat is very white, it is surprising how white the cat is. I have seen the cat before on walks and it followed me for a long way.

My pepper plant finally has a ripe pepper so I should be able to eat it today or tomorrow. It is very nice to grow my own vegetables, satisfying.

Yesterday I watched The Color of Magic. It was funny but very long.

I found out that I have an interview with the Rotary Foundation for the Ambassadorial Scholarship on Saturday. This is good because it means that I am being considered for the scholarship and might actually get to graduate school. I am really excited about possibly getting the scholarship and being able to study in another country.
