Being a Frosh

Frosh: a slang word meaning 'freshman in highschool'
Yep. Frosh. Not only an interesting word, but also what must be my most interesting year of school yet. So, here is where I record those things that just can't go unwritten. Yep.

Random Stuff I Remember About Cells

Okay, so in Biology we are starting to learn about cells. The student teacher had us pair up and create a list of stuff about cells. Here is the list JoJo and I made.
-eukaryotes have a nucleus and prokaryotes don't
-cell have mitochondria
-rough ER!
-nucleus contains DNA and RNA! GENETIC STUFF!
-cells don't have body piercings unless they are rebel skin-cells.
-cells come in many different types -cells come from other cells
-cells contain tu madre and ta mere -the wheels on the cell go round and round!
-cells have a central vacuole
-cells don't ingest tootsie pops
-cells have an inner cell wall
-cells don't blush because they even their skin tone by using BareMinerals.
-cells can be most extremely seductive

We were discussing the discovering of species. Mr. Hana told us that new species are found every day. I said: "So I could discover a new bug and call it a cow bug?"
Mr. Hana: "You could call it that, but you would have to make a species name.
Me: "Cowbuggyi?"*
Mr. Hana: "Sure! Make it sound all Latin-y and scientific."

*cowbuggyi: pronounciation: cow-bugg-ee-eye

10-14-10 Geometry class

*announcements goes over loud speakers* Mrs. Petr says "Now she says stuff twice on the announcements. I wonder if she does that at home. "Can you please pass the salt can you please pass the salt?" I wonder about these things. Later in class... Mrs. Petr: "Did you know that German is a lot like English? Like 'swimming pool' is 'shwimmen pool.' It's like English all squished together!"

Mr. Hana was talking about the whole, "fight, flight, or freeze" thingy. He used a research paper as an example. He was saying how you procrastinate (freeze) because the paper is a threat. So I pick up my brain chart and I make it advance threateningly towards JoJo. We both die of laughter.

My group was officially frustrated with the myhtology book and the 'context questions.' For one of the sentences, we were to use 'context clues' to find the definition of a colossus. We get so frustrated and John says "Edith Hamilton should be eaten by a colossus." Yesssss she should. Except we find out later that a colossus is a statue. Darn.

Today in concert choir we listened to a horrible middle-school band. They were doing that classic 'dun, dun, dun-dun, DUN DUN!' dramatic sequence often found in movies (I think it have originnated fom starwars.) Oh my grpaes, it was absolutley horiffic! Everyone was completely off-key, and a lot of the instruments squeaked and screeched. It was soooo funny that I laughed my butt off, and I had a really hard time stopping my laughter even after class was over. IT WAS FREAKING HILARIOUS! I luaghed so hard I cried!
