i just bought some wonderful new gadgets from target! i got a calculator watch (i have been looking for one for forever), which features a clock, calculator, stopwatch, and alarm. I also got an eddie bauer keychain with a compass, flashlight, and thermometer. why do you need a compass you ask? because i'm in astronomy! i feel prepared for anything that comes my way. lets say i was caught in the woods. i will know how long i have been lost for (clock), i can add all of the pine needles when needed (calculator), i can time how long it rains for when it does (this is a dual one, stopwatch and water-resistant), i can use the light from the flashlight to start a fire and use the thermometer to see how hot the fire is, and of course, i can use the compass to find my way home. they should let me be on survivor man. i would totally make it.
why are you writing about this you ask? because i have a 5 page astronmy paper to write about the rings of saturn, wouldn't you procrastinate?
