The Death of Ferdinand the Plantie

Background: The planties are from a Biology experiment from 9th grade having to do with getting little plants and subjecting them to various types of torture. Fedie was in my group, and his plant was named Charles Ferdinand II (aka Ferdie). My plant was appropriately named Cleopatra (the actual Cleopatra has a very famous death, for those non-history buffs out there), who was watered with salt water during the experiment. At the end of the project, miraculously, all three were alive. Even Cleopatra, though she was just about dead. Cleo died a long time ago, but Ferdie just recently passed away. I thought it was fair to let Fedie know what was going on.

he had a good life... but he was probably pining away for cleopatra. she died a long time ago, and ever since he was separated from her, it's just been going downhill.

wimp.  i'm disowning him if that's the case.

To: Brandon Fedie <dragonclaw518@yahoo.com>


well, he's dead. i don't think that disowning him will make much difference to him anymore...

shame on you. it's all your fault he died (*sobs*)

To: Kira Lange <apricisunum94@yahoo.com>


how?!  he's the one who went into depression after Cleopatra died.  And you didn't inform me of this at all.  so how was i supposed to know?!! if you had told me i might have been able to smack some sense into him.  I'm now blaming you.


From: Kira Lange <apricisunum94@yahoo.com>
To: Brandon Fedie <dragonclaw518@yahoo.com>


okay, who was the one who tried to nurse him back to health? me. and who was the one who abandoned him as a young child? you. i rest my case. obviously, his issues with relationships must have had roots in his traumatic experience as a child.

To: Kira Lange <apricisunum94@yahoo.com>


i didn't abandon him.  i nurtured him and let him grow.  When it was time for him to go out into the world, i let him go.  YOU were supposed to keep me informed if anything happened.

I did!!! I told you he died. You never asked about him, so i figured you didn't care.












Geometry

So we're learning about Deductive Reasoning in Geometry right now. Example:


A figure has four sides if and only if it is a quadrilateral. If a figure has four sides, then the sum of its interior angles is 360o. Figure A is a quadrilateral. What can you conclude?

So I decided to make up my own:

A student will explode if and only if they are in a boring class for a long time. Geometry is a boring class. Kira has been in Geometry for a very long time. What can you conclude?

Freshies, Sleep Deprivation, and the Latin Word for Lead

Hello All of You Without Lives (just like me :)),

Some may think my title is slightly derogatory. It's not, I promise. It's just a fact of life. If you are reading this blog, you have absolutely nothing to do on a Friday night, and you life is a little sad. Just like mine. Sorry to put your life in the same category as mine.

I decided to write this blog because of three reasons.

 1. I am bored right now, and I have no life. And I am way to tired to go out and get a life. 
 2. My friends are tired of me spamming them constantly on emails.
 3. This way I can spout off my deepest darkest desires, without anyone wanting me to explode. (ahem)

If you're still reading by this point, I'm very proud of you. *applauds wildly*

Anyways, this week was the first week of school, and extremely hectic. I lost (wait for it).... 12-18 ish hours of sleep that I desperately need, I started AP Euro, and I turned 15, all at the same time. Oh my goodness. When will the craziness end? I am on a bus with all freshies, and I'm sad to say that I finally get why everyone hates them. THEY KNOW NOTHING!!! Schedule-wise, they're actually pretty good, but, well, I'll just update you on some of the highlights of my music-less, 45 minute bus ride.

"There are all these sophomores in my classes!!! It's like they failed a class or something!!! (this was referring to a Spanish class... Sophomores sometimes don't take Spanish I until sophomore year because they don't have time/room in their schedules/the desire to. I think it is pretty much impossible to fail a class like Spanish I.)

"My classes all have nerds in them!! It's like, ew!! Where did all these people come from?" (yeah, nerd isn't really an insult to us anymore. Find another word to put us down. Thank you and have a good day.)

"You're lucky. You have fun in your class. In our classes we actually have to LEARN! (no duh. You're in high school now. Hellooo??)

And that was seriously all I heard my whole way home on my first day of school. Italics, exclamation points(!!!), and ALL-CAPS included.

The Latin word for lead? Plumbum. I'm not kidding. Maya and I discovered it in Chemistry (our last hour of the day). It amused us to no end.
