451 Degrees Fahrenheit in the Midwest

Lately I've been feeling exhausted and I have no idea why.  It might be the weather seeing as it's been extremely hot out and now it's cooled down a bit.  I've heard weather can affect health, especially with a 20 degree (Fahrenheit) drop in temperature and a noticeable drop in humidity.  Friday it was up to 110 degrees F (43 degrees C).  

Friday also happened to be the day a friend and I went to the zoo.  Apparently the Henry Doorly Zoo is one of the best in the nation.  It is pretty cool.  They recently changed and added to the Aquarium and added a few animals in other places. I personally loved the new otters in the Jungle. Unfortunately we forgot to check out the new Madagascar exhibit, but there's always next time. 
If you're ever in the States for some random reason and you're in the Midwestern area, I recommend checking the zoo out.  
Here are some pictures I've take from Friday's visit and two past visits.

I will not be doing the Fahrenheit 451 book reading. The book was assigned to our English class to be read over a three day weekend.  You know how John Green says "books belong to their readers?"  I like that, and that's probably why I don't like reading for English classes - usually.  I know I've mentioned it on Tumblr, but I'm not sure if I did here.  My English teacher forced us to find as many symbols as we could, and it was pretty awful and ruined the reading experience for me.

Okay, I'm getting really hungry so I'm going to go have lunch.
