Introduction
We were sitting at lunch. Thinking about next year. We were all going to different schools. It would be pretty sad
to never see each other again. So we decided to make a co-owned blog. This way we wouldn't completley forget each
other. We hope this lasts untill we graduate, maybe longer. Hopefully longer.
We are all PRISM students or alumni. PRISM is a gifted program with too much homework and tests. Even though we
are "gifted children", we rarely act like it. It's hard to spend this much time together without loosing at least a large
chunk of one's sanity.

Swimming and Brains
Swimming
I've had swim practice every day last week. The first day was pretty easy (we only swam like 25m-50m). Then we started to do a 300m warm-up, and swim like 800m's. My feet and arms are so dead.
Tori's B-Day
Well, Tori's B-day was on the 5th, but her party was last weekend. It was pretty fun. We went down to Gig Harbor to go horseback riding. My horse was awesomeful. It was black and white--kinda like a cow. It had a really short mane, so it looked like a mohawk... yeah. Halfway through the ride, it refused to turn and it trotted off in the wrong direction. I pulled on the reins really really had but it wouldn't turn. It did make a funny cracking noise though.... Then I kicked it on the side and it turned around. Moral: Kicking stuff always helps.
Then we spent like forever driving home. We watched Harry Potter in the car on the way there. We came back, were hyper, and had more cake. Then we had a sleepover and watched Monty Python. Yeah. Fun.
School Today
So the teachers were all complainy about the messy lunch room so they made us have a 'sit-down lunch'. What a horrible idea. How will sitting down help us be cleaner? Yeah. They also have all this icky health food. It's disgusting. Forcing us to eat healthy isn't going to 'give us healthy habits for the future'. It just makes me hate the healthy people and want to eat even more junk food.
We're taking the BOPI in spanish tomorrow. Wow... *sarcastic* so difficult.
Our substitute for math was nice though. Sadly, Kat and I sit next to wierdos...
Brains
This could kinda go under school, but I think it deserves a section of its own. Ok. So in Bio we're studying the nervous system. Since it was boring, i was thinking of fun stuff to do with brains.
- First of all, the cells there communicate by sending electricity to each other. So if you stuck a lightbulb in your brain it would light up when you though. Isn' t that awesome. Go and try! .... I wonder how many idiots did...
- You brain doesn't have stuff that can feels. So you can like poke your brain and not feel it. Unless you poke to hard and die.
- You can damage some parts of your brain and not die. I could stick a pencil through your head and you'll live. Wanna try?
- I wanna be a brain surgery person. *brings out chainsaw, pencil, super glue, and duck tape*
Yeah. So much fun.
Stupid People Stuff
99% of people are below 99%ile. Therefore, they don't get 99%ile on their WASL. Which is sad. 50% of people are below average. Therefore, 50% of people are complete idiots. 70% of people don't understand percents. 67.5% of statistics are made up on the spot. And 4 out of 3 people don't understand fractions.
