Pictures of Aurora

I was doing the homework for Tuesday and while researching what "Aurora" means, I came across these pictures of this pretty stunning, surreal, natural phenomenon that's called Aurora.
I thought I'd put them on my blog as they're pretty incredible!

Rewriting our Moments Using Hong Kingston's Style

**Note: To be perfectly honest, I can't really think of any moment in my life so big and so worthy of such close examination. I guess when we're asked to think of moments for a school assignment or so, I immediately associate that with a big, momentous, dramatic, crazy big life-changing moment. But then when I reflect on my own life, I can't really find any of those. I guess, in a sense, that's a good thing, as these "moments" are often tragic or life-threatening or really sad. And I haven't really experienced anything that big, that personal and raw. And I think many of my peers are probably in that boat as well. So I think it's OK if our moments aren't so dramatically huge. The small moments are important, too.
