Pretty and pointless


What are two things everyone loves but rarely thinks about?



Fireworks and hot air balloons!




*Westerfeld Specials
As I said "pretty and pointless*". Yet when you see them in real life it really makes you feel good. I mean on the fourth of July do you look forward to steak? To reading the entire declaration of independence? To singing patriotic songs?

NO you look forward to FIREWORKS!!!!!! "I'm sure that's what the founding fathers would want us to do celebrate our independence by blowin' stuff up!"- Gaffagan. And yet the rest of the year you don't give fireworks another thought!


It's the same with hot air balloons. Except there's no holiday that centers around balloons so you mostly forget them completely. But that rare sighting makes you feel good all day. Like Friday on the way to school from sem we were driving an being blinded (driving toward the sun :P) and we saw some balloons and we were like WHAT?! HOT AIR BALLOONS! Awesome I felt like a little kid exclaiming every four seconds yay hot air balloons! FUN!! It whent right over the car and we saw the nflares sooooo cool! Turns out they were out for "Clovis fest". It was so fun and I felt goood all day.
YAY PRETTY AND POINTLESS! :-D

A little math review

For those of you who read my story about numbers and don't really get it here's a little tutorial.

Ex. 6+-5n=56

First add the inverse operation of the number not attached to the variable.
Inverses, plus is minus and multiply is divide and vise vera.
Do it to both sides. PS NEVER DO MATH ON THE COMPUTER!!!!! TOOOO HARD!!!!!

6+-5n=56
-6 =-6
-------------
-5n = 50
---- ---
-5n -5n
---------------
n = -10

What is with me and numbers?

As you probly know a few days ago was 9/9/09. There was a baby born that day at 9:09 weighing 9lbs 9oz. Guess what they named him.


SEVEN!

Somtimes math sparks the oddest brainwaves!

When Number's Fall in Love
By Tori C. and 8(-22+x)=0
Based on a real math problem
The laws of math state that in the case of a multi-step equation, that "The object of a number's life is to isolate the variable." As such variables live very lonely lives after a few minutes of high action with themselves only, some variables are luckier than others. For example, in the case of 49n-15, it cannot be simplified and still is with other numbers.
8 was not a variable and it was the happiest day of her life. Today was the day she would be multiplied! She was thrilled! She never thought she'd be a product! She hadn't had the best upbringing in the world. Her parents were exponents. It was odd to have three parents who were all twos.
She was madly in love with her fiance, -22. Even though he was a negative and she a positive, she knew that she could change him to a positive if she just had the right inverse operation. She was certain she and -22 would never be (gasp) DIVIDED!
Her maid of honor was her best friend x. X was a variable but she was 8's BFF. -22 thought it was risky to have an "unknown" in the ceremony, but he knew she had to have a good absolute value to be 8's best friend.
As 8 performed the first part of the "wedding" ceremony (the distributive property), x cried as she became 8x, and the groomsmen (parentheses) sat down. X remained standing to see as 8 and -22 became Mr. and Mrs. -176. Then as the newly- products crossed the equals sign together as 176 (performing the inverse operation), they were so happy, especially -22 now that he was positive.
8x was worried. Products were generally happier if they stayed away from variables but she was brave. She and 8 divided, and 8 crossed the sign and divided herself by 176 leaving x=22. 22 couldn't be sad because he was now a positive, but he was still a little dissapointed. He had really wanted to stay a product, but he learned a vital lesson...............
MATH STINKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Lifestyles of the high school Tori.

Monday was the first day of school. I was pumped so pumped but I learned a few things. Onegood two bad and one EXTREMELY AWESOME.
So I go to my first period (math on the newly opened second floor!) I expect the same hi-I'm-Mr.-so-an-so-this-is-who-I-am/this-is what-I-did-over-the-summer but Oh no! The minute the bell rings he hands us a workbook and a warm-up! Then he GIVES HOMEWORK!!!! ON THE FIRST DAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! That's how I learned high school is not middle school and they treat it as such.
I learned something pleasanter in choir the next period. I learned once a concert choir girl always a concert choir girl always one and what does that entail oh I think you know. It means we where probably the most talented and loud choir Granite Ridge. So we carried our loudness and talent to CN mixed choir. How is that good news? Let's the guys are silent and less talented so the girls constantly annoy the guys with our loud chatting and our rocking out to our absolutely perfect harmonies. ;)
In other choir news. The high mixed choir/women's chorale (I'm in both) travel more than my GR choir and drama class combined! So we're going to San Diego! And when there we're going to Sea World and Six Flags!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (and a festival but whatevs!)
After the day was over mine wasn't I had an audition. I thought I did well and I even got a few compliments on my song I'm flying. Callback lists posted that night. My name was not on it. That was a sad lesson that no matter how many times I learn it I always manage to forget it around audtion time. It is "Don't wish don't start wishing only ruins the heart." -Wicked. In other words don't hope too much or get too confident or you'll be more sorry than ever you hoped in the first place. I was really disappointed about that. :'(
Only other piece of news is I've completed one week of semenary. IT WAS HARD! I fell asleep on the couch for two hours on Wednesday night and still slept soundly that night. And today I fell asleep for around a half hour at Aunt Am's.


TOMMORROW IS THE VINYARD! :( :/ :'(
