Ok, so my favorite teacher, Mrs. Bingham just gave me her blog address. Check it out. She's amazing. And let me know if it's a "you have to know her to get this" kind of a thing because I think she is hilarious. Oh, by the way, the link is over on the right side. -->

I think I need to start requesting Tuesdays off of work. Get this: I only work two days next week. Guess which days they are? That's right Tuesday and Thursday (also hard to work on this day with Big Brother Big Sister). I think now that's it a sure thing that I am staying at Roberts for a while, I need request to only work on Tuesdays if they desprately need me to. I feel like I'm inactive because I haven't been to Young Womens in so long.

Well, I've done some more photography, which I can't post because they are pictures of myself, but I also did some of just objects so I'll try to get those posted tomorrow.

The semester is over at school and I finally have Creative Writing with Mrs. Bingham. This year for our "journals" she said she might let us do our blogs. So, just for warning, I might actually post something creative every once in a while.

Ok, as if this post wasn't already jumping around from topic to topic. I'm going to change the address site of my blog. I just want something more creative. So if you think of anything, let me know. I won't change it for at least another week once I come up with a name. And I'm going to make this font big so all of you can read it and won't forget that I'm changing things around. B-]

Good Old Days

You Are a Purple Crayon

Your world is colored in dreamy, divine, and classy colors.You hold yourself to a sky high standard, and you are always graceful.People envy, idolize, and copy you without realizing it. You are an icon for those who know you.And while it is hard to be a perfectionist, rest assured it's paying off! Your color wheel opposite is yellow. While yellow people may be wise, they lack the manners and class needed to impress you.

What Color Crayon Are You?

Distractions

Ok, so I had this amazing post in mind. You want to know what it was? So do I. Suzie left me this comment earlier today.







I don't know about you, but it kind of threw me off. Wow.

blah...

So, it's been a busy Saturday. I went to a YCL meeting, I went to the Legacy Center(yeah, that's right), and I played some Guitar Hero. I'm also in the middle of writer's block again, and I'm developing a migraine. Just thought you all should know. Happy Saturday.

ACT

Are you a scared as I am? A couple days ago, I registered to take the ACT. The ACT people!!! I'm trying to get myself prepped for the test, but I'm not worried about preparation as much, I'm worried about freezing up and forgetting everything just like I did on my last two significant tests. Check out some of the stuff I have to know. Go ahead and see if you can answer it. (No peeking at the answers!)

1. Rex is four times as old as Ted. If the sum of their ages is 30, how old is Ted? A: 5 B: 8 C: 10 D: 6
2. Find the slope: 4x - 5y = 20 A: 5/4 B: 4/5 C: -4/5 D: -5/4
3. Read the passages and answer the questions that follow(3 and 4). The work performed by a spring is one of the classic examples of work performed by variable force. When a spring is neither compressed nor extended, we may say that it is in a relaxed state. Any time the spring is taken out of this state, whether by begin stretched or compressed, it will exert what is called a restoring force, as it attempts to reclaim its relaxed state. In most cases, we can say that the force (F) exerted by the spring is proportional to the displacement of the free end from its position during the relaxed state. This is known as Hooke's law, and is expressed:
   F = -kd
   The negative sign in this equation indicates that the force is always opposite to the displacement. The constant k is known as the spring constant, and is a measure of the resilience of the spring. What is one of the classic examples of work performed by variable force? A: a ball rolling downhill B: stretching out a spring C: compressing a spring D: the work performed by a spring
4. Why is the spring constant always negative? A: Because it always acts in the opposite direction as the force acting on the spring B: Because it always acts in the same direction as the force acting on the spring. C: Because it always acts perpendicular to the force acting on the spring. D: Because it goes toward the center of the earth.

Here are the answers:

1. D. The ratio of Rex's age to Ted's age is 4:1; the sum of their ages can be divided by the total number of units in this ratio, 5. This indicates that Rex is 24 and Ted is 6.
2. B. The equation form for slope is y = mx + b, in which m is slope.
3. D. The restoring force of a spring is a great example of variable force.
4. A. The restoring force always resists the force that moves the spring out of its relaxed position.

See, not too bad. I'm just worried about the stupid science questions. I hate science. My attention span is not equipped to deal with any science. I also have to do some more English questions and I am taking the optional essay part of the test so, I'm also nervous about that. But I still have a month to prepare, and I think if I do a couple of prep practices every night, I'll get a good score.
