*sigh*
i knew this day would come...
i just had no idea it would be so soon.
lol.

apparently we have our first Internal Assessment in IB on Tuesday.
well, its in IB Spanish 5. so all the seniors already have had half their IA's already.but for a junior this is new to me.

a test that, unless i'm mistaken, will somehow play a role in my final IB grade in the class.

now this one isnt really a "test". its a one minute speech about an endangered animal completely in spanish. but the stigma that an IA has makes it much more important than the normal assignments in this class that ive gotten pretty good at BSing. but this is something that i have to take time and prepare for...

yuck.

call me a nancy. but this seems to be a big deal. and who knows. IA's may be a small part of the overall grade. but the way Profe makes it sound, i NEED to do well on this.

and so... thats what i'm doing tomorrow night. preparing for this speech...


and so it begins. IB isnt going to get any easier from here.


so i guess we will see if i survive as a senior, eh?
lol.

ok... so to about ten or so people I "mass messaged" a text that asked quite a provocative [and slightly redundant] question...:

"So if you were stuck, hypothetically of couse, on the stereotypical deserted island, and you could hypothetically bring one hypothetical electronic device with you, seeing as how you can plug it into your hypothetical coconut tree that has an outlet, what would that one item be?"

i got a couple of interesting answers.
most were quite bland... ipods were the number one items to bring.

 

tyler seemed to be one of the few people to actially ponder the question. and so begins the dialogue...
tyler is red. I'm blue.

 

Well, hypothetically of course, can i bring something to get me off the island?

I'm bringing my F-16 battery operated fighter jet, so sure. =] but you can only do something like that if it's not stupid. like a boat. cuz thats a gay way to escape an island...

yeah exactly. ok i would bring my rechargeable, life lize buzz lightyear that had real flying action and real lasers! and cool action phrases like "We're almost home!" and "Want to stop at buger king?" or "lets stop terrorism!" Yeah. Hypothetically, thats what i would bring.

good. thats creative enough. Because if you hadn't come up with something creative, i would have my hypothetical robotic sharks with jet engines force you to go back to the island... lol.

whew! that was close then!

yeah. you were on the edge... had you soent twenty nine years training octopusses to sing and dance, however, i would use my sharks to escort you home... lol.

well me, buzz, woody, and that t-rex guy would have competed and won against your singing octopusses on american idol. me and simon go way back.

whatever. i would take my jet and fly to Paris. not paris , france. the french smell. but i would go to Paris, Yugoslavia. i've always wanted to meet those Yugos... or i might go hunting for Osama. That way when i find him, i can put HIM on my hypothetical island...

too bad. me and buzz already killed him.

no way. I'm friends with Charles Gibson at ABC news. if Osama went down, i would know.ut i did hear that you were the one to take out stalin... nice work.

no, that was Woody out runnin around on his own again. but thnx for the credit though...

gah. stupid woody. yeah, while we are on the topic of disney caracters and assasinations, i went with aladdin and took out the the north korean's old prime minister, ya know... we had a good time. we used the flying rug that aladdin owns...

nice... well me and jack sparrow went on a pirate raid and took out ghengis khan.

wow. that was like... 900 years ago...

yeah. after i found the fountain of youth, i kinda just kept on going...

nice. at the age of fourteen... i would have waited til at least my mid twenties. and then i would get my smokin hot wife to drink the fountain too. that way she doesnt get all old and wrinkley... =]

well at the time we didnt know how long the fountain would last.so it was best to get it while we could.

but its the fountain of youth... thats gotta have a lifetime warranty or something...

well turns out it did... but now the fountain is destroyed. and the man who did it goes by the name of...

dang. that sucks. who is it?

Darth Vader!!!

GASP! no way? i thought he got blown up inside the death star!...

well the planet that he destroyed (while demonstrating the destructive power of the Death Star to prncess Lea) had the fountain of youth on it. there might be other fountains, but i dont know where they are.

dang. that sucks. well i'm not working on Monday. I'll look for them then. Hey, since we are on the topics of hypotheticals, would you choose Cottonelle, or Quilted Northern?

Quilted Northern. No doubt.

Electric or Regular razor?

electric

yeah... i'm a fan of the regular blade. and its only got like two blades on it. the ones that have like ten blades freak me out. i want to cut off the hair on my face, not slaughter a cow...

yeah. same here.

Maybe you should bring your electric razor to the hypothetical island, since it could plug into the coconut tree...

maybe... NOT.

just a suggestion... hmmm... i need to shave. I'll do that tomorrow before i leave for church.

yeah, me too...

So i have to make a decision. Do i make this hypothetical island a paradise, or an awful place to be? I can put whatever i want on it. it IS hypothetical. so i could put mirages of drop dead gorgeous women, or i could put toenail clippings the size of scyscrapers...what do ya think?

awful. but part of it is super beautiful. you just have to find it.

only if you find the map hidden in the sand.

yeah yeah yeah and there are two halves and you gotta find both.

But one of the halves must be guarded by a giant.he doesnt have to be mean or stuff. he can be nice. he just has to live in the cave and guard the map. and if you get too close he will eat you.

and the other half is buried in man-eating quicksand...

so i just realized something. this is a "stereotypical island". meaning that it has to fit the stereotypical SIZE of a stereotypical island. where do we get room for all this stuff?

so theres this volcano and it spits out lava like crazy, making tons of new land...

Oh. Ok. hmmm... time for dinner. gimme a minute to eat. i do need you to ponder how people are going to get STUCK on this hypothetical island...

Gimme some time for that one...

Ok.

TIME.

Got it! The plane everyone is flying in is in the air and gets stripped by an electromagnetic field... The passengers are falling when large birds cathch them and drop them on the southern tip of the island.

But what about the wreckage of the plane?

It gets thrown into the ocean away form this island.

hmmm. that seems plausible. it is, by the way, PURELY HYPOTHETICAL...

 

I dont care if that was long and boring to some...
and its not even that long. it just seems long cuz this conversation has been going on for the past four hours...
it was very amusing to go back and retype... lol.

i really dont wanna take my finals.

 

like i really dont want to.

at least this whole week is just going to be review... and then wed-friday are short.

 

but still.
finals suck.

and i finally stopped having to go to the bathroom. you have NO IDEA how many times i went in the past 24 hours.
drinking a gallon of water in less than 5 hours messes with you.

 

you THINK its no big deal, until you realize how much water it really is!

and then my dad freaked out cuz he said i had diluted all my electrolytes, and that i was going to die...
oh well.

 

but now that i'm no longer a human water balloon, im pretty thirsty.

isnt that just an amazingly exciting story? =D

 

and now i'm so bored that i'm going back though all this and chaning each line to an increasingly darker shade of a color.

its
quite
fun.

i should be studying. but what the heck... its the weekend...

so people should join me in my lack of studying.
cuz there are bound to be people as lazy as i am...

Is There a Santa Claus? A Scientific Analysis

1. No known species of reindeer can fly. However, there are 300,000 species of living organisms yet to be classified, and while most of these are insects and germs, this does not completely rule out flying reindeer which only Santa has seen.

2. There are an estimated 2 billion children (persons under 18) in the world. But since Santa doesn't – apparently – handle the Muslim, Hindu, Jewish and Buddhist children, that reduces the workload to 15% of the total – a mere 378 million, according to the Population Census Bureau. At an average (census) rate of 3.5 children per household, that's 91.8 million homes. One presumes there is at least one good child to each home.
