Museum


Actually happened. Except it’s slightly exaggerated. Anyway, the museum trip was kinda interesting, but the fact that we had to answer questions on a worksheet kinda took away from the “fun” (if that’s what it’s called). It was kinda unorganized compared to other trips, though. We got to wander around the museum ourselves rather than having to follow some teachers around, which I guess made it better. During lunch, when I bought a 99-cent bag of chips with a dollar bill, and I actually got a penny back. It was the craziest thing ever.

After lunch, we all went to this planetarium thing (well I don’t actually know what it is… it’s like a dome thing) and watched some stuff. It was awesome, and I ended up saying “OH MY GOD” every few seconds because it looked like a huge meteor was about to crash into the room. I was gonna add that part into the flash, with an object actually crashing through the roof at the end, but the escalator part took way too long to make. The result was worth it, though. Especially the running animation.

The universe

I was thinking about this, but decided not to write it because nobody would really understand it. I ended up writing about rocks and collisions and stuff like that. I remember this one episode of Nova that I saw on PBS a few months ago about the creation of the universe, which was quite interesting. There were all these simulations and stuff like that, and it was awesome. Yeah.

Also, I’m going to be moving all the daily flashes to a new category called “Daily flash” rather than just having them in “life” and “flash”, because it’s kinda unorganized. I think I’ll make a separate category for Touhou stuff as well.

Propaganda

This one is kinda weird. I was just thinking about the Schoolhouse Rock video and then I remembered how they had this part about colonizing the moon, and how I thought about Kaguya and the Lunar War when I was watching it. I started making the flash, and then I realized I didn’t really know how I would end it. Yeah… but anyway, Schoolhouse Rock is like propaganda. It’s all like “America is awesome” and whatnot.

In other news, I have just added unowen.net to the links on the right. It has music and oekaki and stuff like that. Yay!

Projectile Motion

I noticed that my past few flashes have been kinda violent in nature. Just a coincidence, I guess. Anyway, the actual activity was quite awesome; it involved shooting a ball out of this bazooka-looking thing (it doesn’t shoot as far as I thought it would) and seeing if it landed at the same time as another ball that was just dropped. AND IT DID! Multiple times! Hooray! Anyway, tomorrow is my last SAT prep class, and I’ll be taking the actual SAT on Saturday. I really need to study some SAT words, because I haven’t been doing that for the past month or so.

Filming


Have you ever seen a random person staring at the camera while a TV reporter is reporting some breaking news? Yeah… you probably know what I’m talking about. They always look so silly. And then there’s those people who pretend like they don’t see the camera but walk right in front of it. It’s even funnier when it’s in a closed-off area. I remember watching TV one day and seeing this one guy walk right in front of a camera like this:

He even pretended like he didn’t know the camera was there. And then I laughed.
