I want out of here!

Right now I want to be on a beach in Hawaii.  It is too cold in Michigan and I could really use a tropical vacation.  Just think about it, going from icy roads and below freezing temperatures to a warm beach on a sunny day.  I wouldn't mind going for a swim instead of freezing to death.  Getting out of school would just be a bonus!

Praying Mantis

If I were a bug, I would be a praying mantis.  They are pretty much the coolest bug there is.  Think about it, they are green, have big eyes, and have little scythe like things for hands.  Sure, the female bites her mates head off, but that's pretty cool...kind of.  The coolest of people could only be the coolest of bugs, if you catch my drift. ;)

Final Exam

I think that I will be able to use Google Drive after graduating high school.  If I ever need to do a group project, that is where I'm going.  It is easy to use, lets everyone involved share ideas at the same time, and is way better than any other similar tool that I have come across.  I could use it to send my boss a report that we can both easily edit, I could use it to instantly share an idea will all of my friends at the same time, and in a group project.  As for a tool that I would never use again, I'm thinking Bloglines.  Anything that I can do there, I can do on another, easier to use tool.

Winter Break

Winter break was...odd this year.  It was reletively warm compared to what I'm used to.  When you live in Michigan, winter means a ton of snow and freezing cold, but we only got snow a few times, and every time it would melt pretty quickly.  The only snow that seemed to last didn't arrive until a few days ago, which is weird... of course it suddenly drops to below freezing temperatures when I have to ride the bus...Now that I have that out of my system, my break was pretty nice.  I got to sleep in, relax, play some of my new video games (by the way, the new Super Smash Brothers for the WiiU is pretty amazing), etc.  It was a great way to recharge my batteries.  I hope you enjoyed your break, too, assuming you get one.  See you next week!

Group Projects

I feel the need to talk about group projects.  Some of us love them, some of us...not so much.  When it comes to group projects, I'd say that at least 70% of the time there is one person who works hard on it, one person who does absolutely nothing but writes their name on it and takes credit, and the rest of them only do something if the hard worker asks them to.  You know it's true.  Don't try to deny this.  If you are attempting to deny it, odds are that you are not that one hard worker.  Now get out, I don't like your kind.  I was recently part of a group project in History, and luckily I got the other 30%.  For the most part, things went really well.  I'm happy about that.  However, I would like to say one last thing that let's people know how I normally feel about group projects.  STOP GROUPING ME WITH PEOPLE WHO DON'T DO ANYTHING!  WHAT DID I DO TO YOU TO DESERVE THIS?  This has been blogging with Hunter, have a nice day! :D

Why I Am Special

At the moment I cannot think of anything interesting that I can do that others may not be able to do, so congratulations, you are learning how to convert radians to degrees.  I recently learned how to do so in Pre-Calculus, and once you understand it, it's relatively easy.  If you put a circle with a radius of two on a coordinate plane and center it on the origin, there are 16 points on it that can be measured in radians, degrees, or cooridates.  Coordinates are the regular points on a coordinate plane, degrees are the normal angle measures, and radians are the points in values of Pi (for example, Pi, 2Pi, Pi/6, etc.).  To convert radians to degrees, simply multiply the radian by (180/Pi).  So if the radian is (Pi/6), the equation would be (Pi/6) x (180/Pi).  The pi cancel each other out and you end up with 180/6.  Reduce this and you get 30 degrees.  Congratulations, you just learned some Pre-Calculus.

Thanksgiving Break

Due to Thanksgiving, I had a four day weekend.  It was nice, just forget about school and relax for a couple days.  My weekend consisted of eating a bunch of food, sleeping a lot, and playing video games.  If there is a better way to waste away the weekend, I am not aware of it.  Sometimes you just need to recharge your batteries, you know?
