Science!

I've been thinking...

How much more can the world ACTUALLY advance?

We've got steam, electricity, fission, flight, solar power; but surely the only thing we can now do is improve the things that we currently have, right?

I think in terms of science we have many, many things to look forward to, but after watching The Fifth Element, I Robot and a few other futuristic films, their is nothing spectacular going on. Except maybe the level of security increasing a bit too much. Biiiiiiiiig brother! I don't think I can handle not having privacy...

One thing I am excited about are the many more deep sea fish their are to be discovered! Bioluminescence and photophores are my new favourite things in the world.

I've applied to go to Iceland. The country. Apparently it's the most developed country in the world! And is the place to be once global warming is in full force.

My crazy grandmother thinks I'm crazy. She gave me "the face". Which is simply her scrunching up her face and saying "Noooooo. Really?" over and over and over. She also gave me that face when I said that I liked Buffy The Vampire Slayer and other science fiction shows and when stating "No, I have never worn lipstick".

The Canadian aunts are coming over in a couple of weeks. It's always daunting. Will my accent stay intact?! I bloody hope so. Being English in other countries (maybe not France or eastern Europe) will get me far in life! I can be the token English girl that says "Bloody hell!" at key moments. I'd like that.

Bonne nuit!
