Random Pictures

These pictures are mostly for Carole (I'm not sure who else cares?) Yesterday I was sitting at my desk working hard at the reading I needed to do for class on Monday. I started chatting with Carole on Skype and happened to mention that I was trying to talk myself out of going to West Edmonton Mall. Normally my self-discipline would win out, but Bath and Body Works had just opened (first stores in Canada ever!) Carole, being the dependable sister she is, insisted that I drop everything and rush out to the mall. So I did. And Bath and Body Works was a scent-filled paradise. I got two shower gels and three hand soaps all for $28! I think it seems cheap because the exchange rate has changed so much since I used to shop for the products in the states, and that Alberta only has 5% tax. I am now taking orders (if you live outside of Edmonton or Toronto).
I found a new jewelry tree! How can I live without my jewelry tree? (it was too wide to bring home from Australia)
I'm learning the basics of statistics in my ESL Assessment class. We were supposed to get a scientific calculator, and I was was much more excited about finding a "pretty" one than I should have been! All the other ones were boring and grey, though.
New shoes (Carole will be jealous!)

Yes. I want it all.
Does this mean I can stop rationing my brown sugar and fig Bath and Body Works products? Double check they still carry that fragrance for me, will ya?

And what happened to the jewelry tree I left with you? I brought that thing all the way home from China - did it not make the cut?
