Can't Believe it!
I can't believe it! Guess what I saw last night?! I saw Venus and Jupiter and the 4 moons orbiting Jupiter!!! It was so pretty, still can't get over it. This guy was just sitting there looking at some thing then he asks if I want to see the planets. And of course I wanted it who wouldn't?! Apparently we can always see Venus from where we are, it was called the morning and evening start because that's mostly when we could see it but that was until they found out that it was actually Venus. Then while walking back to the dorms, I looked up and for the first time, I could actually see stars and lots of them too. I wonder why, normally I would only see one or two because even though we are up state, there are still many bright lights on campus. I was amazed, words don't even describe how pretty it was. If only I had a good enough phone to take a picture of it, damn my stupid phone. It surely made my night, and now I am seriously thinking of minoring in astronomy, it was what I wanted to major in at first but didn't but it has still been very interesting to me and last night just sparked my interest even more. Like my art history professor was saying, we all have our sublime moments and I think I just found mine. Hopefully I would be able to see such a pretty sight once again during the rest of my years here but first and foremost, I must find that huge telescope hidden somewhere on campus.
