NOTE: If you want my entry to make sense, then read Andy's journal (ydna2489) first. He discusses Part I ( Read more... )

What an up and down day. Nothing eventful for the first two blocks, but then came chemistry. I got back the test that I thought I did pretty well on. Ha. So much for that. I got a 75, which was right around the class average. Too bad Mrs. Fink is clueless to the fact that if her class averages are consistently not so hot...then maybe, just MAYBE, ( Read more... )

Well, I don't know what it is, but everyone seems to be somewhat of a mess lately, including myself. First of all, I have not been able to get very motivated to do work, and have been sort of slacking off (by my standards, at least). I tell myself during the day that I will get on task right away and get some real work done, yet I always come home ( Read more... )

So I drove to and from school alone for the first time today...I felt cool. My already good day almost became spectacular when the big periodic table chart almost fell right on Mrs. Fink's mug. Alas, to the dissapointment of nearly everyone in the class, she jumped out of the way just in time. Also on the subject of chemistry, significant figures ( Read more... )

Went down to Boston today for the Dropkick Murphys concert, and it was amazing. It was at the Avalon, a club literally 50 feet from Fenway Park, which just makes it extra sweet. It was about the size of the State Theater, and we had a pretty decent view. In case you've never heard them, the Murphys are a pretty unique band, mainly because they have ( Read more... )

Well, today was a pretty boring day. I woke up, got ready, went to school. Did some "fun" chemistry "punny riddles". Had health class, which wasn't too bad because we watched a movie. Hmm, I know I'm forgetting something here...ah, yes. I GOT MY LICENSE BEEYATCH! There was a little scare when I almost ran right through a stop sign, but other than ( Read more... )

Well, to my utter surprise, Jon, Andy, and I managed to finsh constructing our chemistry project. Alas, we still have not "developed insight into the concept of molar volume" as Mrs. Fink expects us to do. We must not have made it pretty enough. But anyway, we had some good times, and some very good laughs. Overall I think we have spent over 10 ( Read more... )

Well, I guess it's cool to update in Real Life or something, so I figured I'd give it a shot. Its kind of exciting, because I am rebelling against authority and doing something I am not supposed to be doing. I have nothing much to talk about, since its 8:45 in the morning. The debate finally seems to be winding down, so I'm wondering if you would ( Read more... )

Well here's a good rant I promised...

I went onto CNN.com this evening as I always do the night before APUSH so I have a good current event to share with the class.  I came across an article entitled "U.N. approves call for ban on human cloning".  I knew right away this would be a good one to get pissed about.

So the deal with this story is that ( Read more... )

Bonjour. Not sure why I used French there, but oh well. If you want to see something more exciting than this mediocre journal, head over to Jamie's journal and check out the comments on the "answer the phone. i know youre home" post. Be sure to note the extreme dosage of schoolage I dished out. Au revoir.
