My friend takes regular environmental (she refuses to take APs and the AP at my school is incredibly difficult unlike the APES class at other schools). They had an assignment about living vs nonliving organisms and there were 6 objects (a boat, a person, seaweed, water, the sun, and a whale). There were people who argued with her saying that the boat, water, and sun were living and the whale, person, and seaweed were nonliving. She said it was funny to listen to them defend their stupidity.

Well, for those who were hesitant to learn sign language, that`s a plus. Haha, that was awesome! A+++++ for that girl!

@elf4eva, too funny!

Nothing too funny in AP today, but thought I`d share a joke I came up with...WARNING: I told it to about 30 people and only 8.5 laughed. Now my friends ban me from telling jokes:

There`s this river called the Ta river. Wanna know how it got its name? One time, when there was a flood, the people on high ground said to the people floating downstream:






"TA-TA!"

Yesterday, my orchestra class would not shut up and listen to the concertmaster. So I yelled at them and they shut up. They did.

Afterwards, everyone high-fived me, which made me happy.

@catch....yeah, I guess it`s kind of hard to get when I`m writing it...it`s a lame joke anyways.

@Mascara....ha, that`s awesome!

Last week, my friend was playing in a tennis match for our school. The kids at our school have a reputation for being "rich", while the other school was . . . less rich. So, my friend and her doubles partner were whipping the other team's butt, and the two on the other team was commenting on how everyone at my school probably takes private tennis lessons at a fancy country club or whatnot. So, as a clever comeback, my friend looks at her (imaginary) watch and says in a lofty, pretentious voice, "Umm, can we please hurry up and finish this match? I've got to take my dog to a spin class."

^^Lol! That was a cute comeback.

^Haha, I'll check it out.

Today I was reading my APUSH textbook. I got to the part where Alexander Hamilton was trying to create a national bank. The bank (which would be funded by private investors who bought shares of stock) would raise $10 million dollars in revenue while costing the US government nothing. In short, it was a great idea.

It sparked immediate controversy among members of Congress. They accused Hamilton of unconstitutionalism and tyranny. Jefferson said that the bank was "a machine for the corruption of the legislature." John Taylor of Virginia predicted that its vast wealth would enable the bank to take over the country, which would thereafter, he quipped, be known as "the United States of the Bank."

Sorry for the history lesson, but I was laughing so hard...Oh, Congress.

My school just got a new co-principal, and she and the current co-principal (a truly awesome lady) do NOT seem to, shall we say, have their ideas in sync. Such as at back-to-school night, when the new co-principal starts a whole 45 minute speech about how they'd love to keep the parents involved, and to keep in touch, and to feel free to stay in contact with her about anything, blah blah blah, and when she (finally) steps down, the other co-principal gets up and starts her ten-minute speech by telling parents not to call the school about problems in order to, in her words, "let the kids fight their own battles." My mom was completely open-mouthed.

There was this guy who attended the same summer program as me. He left about halfway through. He was so hilarious and really awkward and he was just awesome. He was obsessed with math and so good at it. Whenever I think about him, I get this goofy smile on my face.
