Take a look, it's in a book, reading rainbow

IQ Test Score

Not gonna lie, I had to guess on a few. I'm really bad at matching the patterns. And can someone explain to me how to do the last problem? Just a warning, if you do take this test, be prepared to enter an email address and create a password before seeing what you scored.

Since I have some free time this summer, I've decided to be productive. After enjoying Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows so much, I was inspired to read for fun more. So this morning I went to the university library (did I mention I love libraries? especially the people who work there!) to check out God, Country, Notre Dame. They only had one copy, but SURPRISE, no one had checked it out. This book is the autobiography of one of my favorite priests: Father Theodore Hesburgh. He used to be president of Notre Dame and has had quite the amazing life. It's been very fun to read more about the experiences that shaped his life. Here's one of my favorite quotes so far:

"Don't worry about what you just did. When you leave it, leave it. Don't worry about what you have to do tomorrow; time enough for that tomorrow. Give the present task full attention, with no concern for what is coming up next in line or what has been passed."

That's my goal for the school year.

Oh, and here's a picture of my sister and me with this remarkable man. Although he is now mostly blind, right before taking the picture he asked us how twins can have different hair color. It's good to know he still hasn't lost his quick wit. :)



Paz.
