PLAN on rushing...
Ok. I took the PLAN test yesterday. And lets just say that its a little hectic. Well, that was what I was thinking. Or maybe its just that all of my teachers give us so much time to complete out tests that I'm too used to that. Or something but I thought they gave us like no time. Or that when my teacher said 5 min. I was freaking out. On practically every test... sigh. Oh well.

Seven Dwarves??
I was wondering if we were still doing the 7 dwarves thing because I think it would be fun.
And so if we are, we have...
1. Doc
2. Happy
3. Sleepy
4. Sneezy
5. Grumpy
6. Dopey
7. Bashful
Also:
1. Snow White
2. The Witch
3. A prince
4. Faithful pet? (Aka. Gizmo.. :) or something.)
I figure if more people want to join they can be the "also" s. I think it would be nice if we matched our personalities with our dwarf name. Like... yeah.. So everyone can pick like their top 3 dwarves they want to be. Or something. I'll talk about it in tutorial. And I think Christine is not doing it with us, she is going with some polo people I think.
But from what I remember some people that might want to do it: Me, Nikki, Ayla, Francesca, Rachel, Sarah, Jessica and am I missing someone? I know I am, but I cut out Taylor and Christine so... yeah. That's only 7. So we might need to beg for more people or make Gizmo Dopey. :) If we still want to make the ferret Snow White.

My attempt at recording my stream of consciousness
Well, blue hahha jenna's playing violin, my toe is wiggling, wow why am i doing this, cell phone, pencil today is a nice day i hope tomorrow isn't hot. like tobasco sauce, speedy gonzales! the odyssey, red folder, laws of the game, ugh reffing i hated that coach, nordstrom, chemistry book has sharp edges, made in japan..?? my hair is annoying agh im itchy, B? why a B?, green pencil, tape, awww cute erasers, a honk! oh no an accident! never mind. ugh i need to find that thing in my i quest. done i should finish.

My Theory on Academic Relativity
Now. There is a whole hype on grades and what not. Am I right? And this year, well things have been getting a little bit harder. For me at least. And so I finally got a solid "A" on my math test. Ok? But, on one assignment, I underestimated my teacher's ability to grade stuff. And she gave me an F. (Which I probably deserved because I kinda made up a lot of it... Well some stuff I didn't really know. But still. Heh Heh.) Anyhow, this assignment is what. 14 pts? My test is 100 pts. So we must look at this relatively. 95/100, vs. 5/14 (wow that looks pathetic as a fraction.) Although the hw assignment says, "F". This doesn't mean: "Oh my gosh! An "F"! F for failure! Bells and whistles going off! holy moly! Or for Langdale, guacaMOLE! 6.02 x 10 to the 23!) Hahha well. My homework is worth 15% of my grade. My tests 85%. BIG contrast. Now, if we took this onto a total of 100 points, my test earned me 80.75 out of a possible 85 and my hw earned me a .75/2.1. Really, now how much is this? Oh yes, of course, right. My hw deducted a whole 1.35 points. The equivalent of this on a test is missing 2 points, on a 100 question test. So, for her freaking out about my hw failure, she should be freaking out about me missing two points on a test! It's all the same really.
So just in case you haven't been paying attention,
2 missing points on a test= An F on a hw
Now, two missing points on a test doesn't quite get the reaction as an F in hw, so I declare that we must reform the art of letter grading, and instead convert things only into points with a letter grade at the end. This is because of the cataclysmic reaction to an F, regardless of its value.
Now anyone agree?

Happy day today!
Hahahah my title rhymes.. and kind of sounds like an asian saying on a notepad. Does anyone know what I'm talking about? Like those little phrases that are like "Clouds pass. I am happy." or like "Sweet rose is gentle always." Things like that. That always used to bug me, hahah I'm not quite sure why. But yeah.
Ayla I can come. Assign me a person. I don't really care who. Someone funny looking (so I can fit the role better. ;)
Short days are fun. Do you know why? I'll tell you why. You have more time to do things! Like off of my previous list. And... yeah!
Contrary to popular belief, I am not turning into Stephanie. Just in case thouest were wondering.
Eh, yeah. Time for me to do my homework! Or fill out my NHS application. Either or..
