I found a Samantha flower! I feel special now.
: )

Description: A porcelian pink flower color and delicate pink and yellow markings are complimented by the rosette plant form. Compact habit.
The flower isn't very popular, though. That's the only information I could find about it.
With my spare time, I decided to do some research on my name.
-Samantha-
English: "listener"
It's from an Aramaic version of Samuel.
The suffix -antha comes from Greek which means "flower".
-antha is derived from Athena.
Samantha is also the name of and electropop song performed by Norwegian singer Margeret Berger
Samantha is the name of a romance blockbuster.
-Elizabeth-
English: "Oath of God"
It's from the Greek name Elisabet which is from the Hebrew name Elisheva meaning "God is my oath", "God is my abundance", or "God's promise".

Spring Break has been fun so far, even though one of my favorite people is skiing in Utah for the break.
I'm visiting colleges Wednesday, Thursday, and possibly Friday. The colleges I'm visiting are:

Auburn
Belhaven
Samford
U of M
I'm looking forward to it.
Hopefully it'll quench my thirst of getting out of town for a little.
Belhaven called me earlier today. I missed it, and when I called back I left a message that consisted of tripping over words, the word "uh", and my giving only my first name.

Brilliant, Samantha.
