I GOT A 24. Or lower. That means I got worse in math. Oh well. If you also got a 24, here's how to make you feel better:

1) Go laugh at people who got 23.
2) Go look at james4l's AMC8 record.
3) "It's not like this counts anyways..."

I forgot my PE clothes for 2 days in a row now. And I survived. Thanks to Tony, my Flanaggan Fun Run shirt, and the fact how we didn't have to dress today.

I was reading up resonance this afternoon at school, and this Tesla guy created artificial earthquakes and lightning storms. Pretty awesome stuff. So why don't we use resonance in war?

Our presentation for Clothdull is terrible compared to when ran on non-Mac computers. At least is semi works. We were saved at halftime so Lewis gets to reprint the bibliography and such. Ad-libbing is quite easy. Taking notes is not.

I got a 91 on the history test. I could have gotten a 93. Oh well. At least I have the Preamble memorized. We had to list the 6 goals of the Preamble in order from greatest to least most important. Here is mine:

liberty, justice, welfare, tranquility, defense, union

I got better than I expected.

4/5/3/2/0 = 14

Interesting how I got higher on number 3 than number 2 since I guessed the second part of number 3. For number 2, I missed a case.

Go Here.

What I learned in school today

Thu Nov 12, 2009 5:06 pm, by dragon96

Math class: Call this person who sits next to me Ay Bee See (ABS). This guy is probably the most annoying person in our class. He takes his pencil and shoots staples at everyone, and he keeps talking during a quiz. His grades aren't that high.

Someone once took his items from his backpack (planner, 2 binders, and a book) and put it on someone else's desk. The teacher found it and put it up on the board. For two days he never noticed his items were missing, despite one of his binders has this label saying "ABS" in huge letters.

Other times, when he is feeling quiet, he would go to one person reading, and snatch the book, be chased around with it while reading, and finally gets caught.

Amazingly, ABS was doing some non-math work today (I think history). He claims to have Hottle like me, yet I do not remember that kind of assignment he was working on. He said he was getting paid to work on the homework, $4 for this one, $2 for another assignment, and $30 for the test. During the test, his partner would use sign language to communicate, and if it isn't multiple choice, the partner walks by to get tissue, and drops off his test there.

SS: Call this person Ex Why Zee (EWZ). She really annoys me for some strange reason.

The person in front of me, Anthony, has this set of 36 colored pencils. She's used them before, but each time the colored pencils came back in a terrible condition. When she needed them today, EWZ would just go and grab his backpack, and then Anthony would grab his backpack. Then she asks. Anthony normally says 'yes', but this time he refused to, even when offered a dollar.

A few minutes later, she find that she has no pencil to use, so she asks the person behind her. She looks at it disgusted that it was a wooden one. But she still uses it. Near the end of class, someone stole her pencil, and then she grabs the pencil which the person behind her was using (for math homework) and says, "This is my pencil!"

Later on, I needed to work on the Notebook for tomorrow's History. So I went and got a pair of scissors, and asked the teacher for a tape dispenser. Just when I was about to cut, she shout-whispers, "Scissors!" I haven't even started cutting, so I'm not sure why she thought I would let her use the scissors. Then when I was about to tape them in, she walks by and grabs to tape dispenser. I went over to her, and asked if I could quickly use the tape dispenser and then she can use it after. "I'm not even done yet..." So I wait for her to finish, get the tape dispenser, and some person comes by and asks to use it after I was done. She also had the scissors for some reason, and when she was done, she asked me to put it away. Luckily, one of her friends told her to go put it away herself.

Math club: Lewis gets 3 minutes of phone use every month or so, because of Patrick's calls that can make you stay on for a while. That explains why his answers are never more than a sentence long. He sounds very tired on the phone. I should try talking to him for more than 3 minutes sometime. I posted this in my blog. Happy?
