New Layout

Is temporary. If you know where to find cute templates (Probably abstract, but anything goes) leave a comment!

cool skating

I LOVE this girls music! I'm blanking on what the first song is, but the second one is the can-can :)
And OMG you can't even tell when she's about to do a jump!

Shh Shh Shh... You Talk To Much

I'm not expecting anyone except for Amaris to get the title...

Anyway, this post is about MARS!!!!!

For those of you who don't know what MARS is, it's Mathematics And Related Sciences camp, and it is AWESOME!!!!
It was 2 weeks long.
I was in the middle school session.
I miss Swetha (my roommate)
I miss Rachel and Selena (my spazziest friends ever)
I miss Amaris (my awesome friend in class)
I miss Danni (my councilor)
I miss dead fish and mazes (LOL Tushar, who will probably never see this but Amaris will)
I miss - wait a moment, I don't miss this one. What is chicken? LOL Geoffardy.
I miss solving the P.O.D.
I miss having major spaz moments.
I miss E-primes. (Not that I can't work on that by myself. Actually, I think I'll prove my major geekiness and do a post explaining them sometime this month. Maybe I'll also post about bizzare number systems. Not that I even took the elective...)

Sooo.... you're probably wondering what's with chicken, what Geoffardy is, what's the P.O.D., and what E-primes and bizzare number systems are. Maybe you're also wondering what' that stuff about dead fish and mazes are about. I'm not saying anything except that we didn't have any real dead fish. As for E-primes and bizzare number systems, wait and see. P.O.D. = problem of the day. And then there's Geoffardy...
Geoffardy was this act that the teachers did for the talent show. There's two Geoff's (pronounced Jeff) at the camp, Geoff Akinston (teaches Math and Art) and Geoff Birky (Everyone calls him Birky, and he teaches Math Mind (my class!) ) So anyway, they did a hilarious take-off on Jeopardy, with the 2 Geoff's competing against each other (score: 0 to 0).
Some sample questions and answers:
Q:A good way to get some sleep in the evening. A:What is go to evening program?
Q:The average MARS camper does this twice each session. A: What is take a shower?
Q:This is often served fried at lunch. A:What is chicken?
Q: This is often served fried at dinner. A:What is chicken?
Q: This is often served fried at breakfast. A:What is chicken?
Q:This is wet and green and served with chicken. A:What is chicken?
Q:This is the most popular ice cream flavor at MARS camp: A:What is chicken?
LOL
The teachers also did "The Jackson Twelve" for the talent show. Also Hilarious.
Me and Selena did an act where we walked up on stage, sat down, stayed there for 30 seconds, and walked off. All without laughing or smiling. Except I messed up really bad, which was annoying because I could always beat Selena when we practiced.
I also sang "Any Dream Will Do" from Joseph and the Technicolor Dreamcoat.
THE SECOND WEDNESDAY WAS THE BEST DAY EVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
In the morning, in class, we did this really confusing stuff that I love about infinity and the number of numbers... it broke my brain but I loved it! Then at afternoon announcements I won math award! And I didn't think I was going to win it because Amaris had already won it the week before so I thought it was going to be a boy from our class. Then we had elective, and I was in newsletter both weeks, and I LOVE newsletter! Then in afternoon class we did RSA encryption (maybe I'll do a post about that too, because it's just so cool!) And then that night was talent show, which is always AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
So yeah, best day ever :) I have to go now... I'll continue this post later.
