happiijenny: puhcific: exhali: rojin: Lake Retba in Senegal The bizarre colour is caused by high levels of salt - with some areas containing up to 40% of the condiment. Michael Danson, an expert in extremophile bacteria from Bath University, said: “The strawberry colour is produced by salt-loving organism Dunaliella salina. “They produce a red pigment that absorbs and uses the energy of sunlight to create more energy, turning the water pink. “Lakes like Retba and the Dead Sea, which have high salt concentrations, were once thought to be incompatible with life - hence the names. But they are very much alive.” wooooow this is so perf Qd highly recommend doing a Google image search on this! Breathtaking. 
What’s today’s date?

So much to do! I haven’t been on tumblr in days. I have my ap exams coming up and I desperately want a 4 or 5 on them. But I don’t even know what I’m doing half the time when studying for them. I don’t know if it’s just me, but I feel so confused not from the work but just from everything. There is just too much going on, it’s become difficult to even pick myself everyday. I feel like I don’t have time for personal enjoyment anymore. Actually, I haven’t even the time to breathe anymore, and I’m not even exaggerating.  But I’m not going to blame anyone for this. It’s my fault. I was the one who put all this work on myself in the first place. I worry about not being good enough for any college not being good enough in other people’s eyes, or maybe not being good enough for myself. But the more I contemplate on this, the more frustrated I become. It’s difficult to explain, but when I think about something so much to the point where I can’t pull myself out anymore, I feel that it’s not just I, myself, who can not breathe from the complexity, but I’m taking the air out of my mind too. Wait…what the hell am I saying.

My dad’s getting me an iphone 5 this weekend. I’m so freaking excited! It’s the kind of excitement that makes me want to pee in a circle and do a little dance around it. I’m sorry that was probably really weird…
