Math IA & Epcot

So today we were assigned our second math IA.

I've tried to read through it but I couldn't really focus - mainly because every time I saw "G-force", all I could think of was that ride at Epcot, Mission Space, where you can choose either the "green" ride or the "orange" ride, and it was a simulator, and if you chose orange then you could feel yourself being pushed back against the seat because of like, simulation G-force, or whatever. And it was kickass. So I think instead of doing the math IA, we should all go on a class trip to Orlando and go to Epcot so we can do Mission Space, and then we will understand everything we need to about G-force.

Since we'll already be in the area, we might as well hit up Universal Studios (WIZARDING WORLD OF HARRY POTTER!) and Magic Kingdom, and also Busch Gardens because I want to pet a giraffe like Kati and also Catherine said it's bomb. So um, who's in .. ?

proCATinating (similar to procrastikitty)

If you don't like boring stories and cats DON'T read, if you like irrevelant stories and cats by all means CONTINUE! I have found myself using similar means of procrastinating as Wigg by watching my cat perform a set of tricks that are rather ridiculous and makes my act look like a fool. He starts by enjoying some romps around the house and participating in foolish fights with string. Then the next thing on his list is to take a bath. Unfortunately for him his tongue is just slighty too long so when cleaning against the grain (fur) he sometimes has to tug his tongue free. I find this rather hilarious and proceed to watch him because to be completely honest I am not a huge fan of doing homework or anything else remotely productive. However the most distracting times are when he has a fight with his tail. It begins by him lying down and flapping his tail. His tail will often hit him in the face and he will become angry and try to catch it. Of course he misses because his tail is faster than his brain which than makes him more upset because he cannot catch this annoying thing that keeps hitting him in the face. And as you may know when a cat gets angry their tail flaps harder which inturn hits him in the face harder and makes him angrier. As you can see it is a vicious cycle, but overall a plesant way to spend my day. I hope that you have learned a thing or two on "ProCATinating with Laura-May" Thank you and good night!

Almost there! (and also gatsby)

As crazy as it sounds, we only have 45 days of classes left before exams start - and that's not accounting for storm days or the fact that we're obviously going to skip a few. I don't know if I should be excited or terrified, but in either case that realisation was just the motivation I needed to actually start my WL2.

On an only ever-so-slightly related note, I was watching the second episode of the first season of How I Met Your Mother yesterday, and I realised that Ted Mosby is Gatsby -he held a series of parties simply in hopes of Robin showing up.

IB Student Survey

Today on free period, Mrs. DeYoung had the latest issue of IB World, which had a survey (1000 IB students participated) about the IB student experience. Notice one of the worst aspects about IB, it wasn't just us who hated ToK, it was global phenomena.Also, I agree with with one of the snapshot comments, "Your IB class becomes your family". <3
