i read a quote somewhere and i'm goign to requote it as i am very much lost in this field. it goes like this.


pandas

the only thing that makes it a part of your life is that you keep thinking about it.


you guys are a part of my life.
okay. so i havent been updating well yeah. the truth is i've been pretty busy [well yeah that AND the fact that i'm just far to lazy to update]

so basically, the we already had our class party. it was mostly a blast and i had a lot of fun with all my friends. really glad i've met them. well as usual i seem to be at a loss for words. but maybe that's because its three in the morning. i ned my downloads to finish so i can hurry up and hit the sack. i'm not entirely nocturnal okay. i need some sleep. anyway, back to talk about the class party. bonded pretty well with almost everyone that day. oh adn guess what, daniel can play teh guitar. no let me rephrase that. daniel can SERIOUSLY play the guitar. he really just rocks. on so many levels. oh yeah dude you're my role model now.

so glad i went swimming in the end that was really fun. everyone got a lot of cramps though [i dont care if i'm misusing the word cramps i dont know what else i can call it] piggybacks were fun though. especially when youre the one being piggybacked. haha. oh yeah and because of the photo session and my unfortunate luck to not have brought any extra underwear and such, i had to wear the dress the whole day on top of the soaking wet stuff. but nah. i'm just exaggerating and we did swim pretty late so its not too bad.

photosession was really good. we got a lot of great shots for nostalgia and everyone had so much fun doing it. except for certain parts where i'm getting the idea some people were just mad because of the lack of cooperation but, its all good. jimmy's house is nice and i like the food his mom prepared.

oh finally got to see his baby photos too. SO CUTE. he looks like himself. =D

the last sports day 16.04.10

frankly i'm getting quite tired of the last of everything. but i think this year is possibly one of the best since we've already found our friends and have bonded much more. i'm just really sad that we're all probably going to go our separate ways pretty soon. well whatever. we better keep in touch and if you guys dont want me stalking you whenever i have the time you better not forget me.

sports day was fun. managed to convince the queen to grace us with her lovely presence at the stadium. it was great. we bonded more and other mushy stuff like that. it was really great. took a lot of pictures then too. suppose in the future one of us accidentally stumbles upon all these photos, wonder what his or her thoughts will be. but ill bet itll be something good. but knowing me, i wonder if future me would think current me was just a gigantic moron because lets face it, i do some pretty stupid things and walk into a great deal of inanimated objects. hopefully, future me will find that adorable and entertaining or something like that.

was actually going to just post the panda picture and go off. but i guess i got caught up in the moment. man i' going to miss high school.


on another note, i want those kinda shoes that are just completely black on top with one thick-ish white stripe lining the bottom of the shoe. i find them just really really nice.

you know what word sounds funny after you say it more than twice?

 too lazy to upload stuff? this is okay right?



anemone. anemone anemone anemone. hahahaha


also another word. jujubes. joojoobeeessss. haha or so i'm told that's how they're pronounced? btu the latter one is more fun to say. joojoobeeeeeess... i just got reminded of a nother word.. ahaha.. i will shut up now. good night.

oh yeah just remembered nearly got crushed by a cabinet and piano today haha was pretty fun though. =D

i found this pretty amazing.

The following question was asked at the University of Copenhagen in a physics exam:
“”Describe how to determine the height of a skyscraper with a barometer.”

One student replied:
“You tie a long piece of string to the neck of the barometer, then lower the barometer from the roof of the skyscraper to the ground. The length of the string plus the length of the barometer will equal the height of the building.”

This highly original answer so incensed the examiner that the student was failed immediately. He appealed on the grounds that his answer was indisputably correct, and the university appointed an independent arbiter to decide the case. The arbiter judged that the answer was indeed correct, but did not display any noticeable knowledge of physics. To resolve the problem it was decided to call the student in and allow him six minutes in which to provide a verbal answer which showed at least a minimal familiarity with the basic principles of physics. For five minutes the student sat in silence, forehead creased in thought. The arbiter reminded him that time was running out, to which the student replied that he had several extremely relevant answers, but couldn’t make up his mind which to use. On being advised to hurry up the student replied as follows:

“Firstly, you could take the barometer up to the roof of the skyscraper, drop it over the edge, and measure the time it takes to reach the ground. The height of the building can then be worked out from the formula H = 0.5g x t squared. But bad luck on the barometer.

“Or if the sun is shining you could measure the height of the barometer, then set it on end and measure the length of its shadow. Then you measure the length of the skyscraper’s shadow, and thereafter it is a simple matter of proportional arithmetic to work uut the height of the skyscraper.

“But if you wanted to be highly scientific about it, you could tie a short piece of string to the barometer and swing it like a pendulum, first at ground level and then on the roof of the skyscraper. The height is worked out by the difference in the gravitational restoring force T = 2 pi sqrroot (l/g).

“Or if the skyscraper has an outside emergency staircase, it would be easier to walk up it and mark off the height of the skyscraper in barometer lengths, then add them up.

“If you merely wanted to be boring and orthodox about it, of course, you could use the barometer to measure the air pressure on the roof of the skyscraper and on the ground, and convert the difference in millibars into feet to give the height of the building.

But since we are constantly being exhorted to exercise independence of mind and apply scientific methods, undoubtedly the best way would be to knock on the janitor’s door and say to him ‘If you would like a nice new barometer, I will give you this one if you tell me the height of this skyscraper’.”

The student was Nils Bohr, the first Dane to win the Nobel prize for Physics.

dude. that guy rocks.
