ahhhhhh!

i've been LOADED with homework today lol. like every single subject i had, i have to do homework for it.

first up, Chemistry. We did more of the homogeneous and heterogenous thing. Though this time we talk more about the heterogeneous substances and the different ways in which they can be separated into the components it is made of. so like, solid and liquid would go through filtration or evaporation. Liquid and Liquid of different boiling points would be distillation. though i don't quite understand fractional distillation. I guess it has to do with the volatility of the substances. Oh well. Hoping to learn more about that as time goes on. We also spent a good bit of the lesson learning how to fold filter paper :/ lol. but it was fun la. haha.

Next up, English. sighh..my most dreaded subject has turned into my nightmare. I have absolutely NO IDEA what discourse is about. I know it is terms or things that relate to a particular object but..i just don't understand what we have to talk about it. sigh..it's just too complicated. and the talkative people in my class don't make it any easier to concentrate either >:( like i wish they could just shut the hell up and pay attention. sighh...

okay, after that, Maths C. T'was alright. Just more about surds and stuff that i'd already learnt last year. Athena doesn't seem that bad, so I guess Maths C is alright and getting better now. But omg, the homework load is MASSIVE MAN. it's like..2 whole pages of little questions. like there's 1 a) - r), 2a) - s) that kind of thing man. Haha. Luckily, he said don't need to do all. So i'm just concentrating on the hard stuff. But still go alot :S

And finally, Physics. Physics was real fun. Haha. Kelsey was going kinda high. And we also got introduced to the Micrometer and the Vernier Calipers. I think there's going to be alot of measurement in Physics and it does not help with my already deteriorating eyesight. But oh well, already learnt how to read the vernier calipers so it was purely revision stuff. Then we had to find out the measurement of like..pi or the diameter of a golf ball. Or the diameter of a copper wire and the length of a piece of paper. It was pretty basic stuff but there was alot to do and me and kelsey couldn't finish it. So..i have to call hannah and ask her for some results. Haha. And also, the homework's what mr Collyer likes to call 'Number Crunching' where we have to find the mean/average of all our results. (There's like 10 for each station :O) So yea. Oh wells, nothing much, just punching some digits in to the calculator and pressing the 'solve' button. Haha.

Well, that's about it for the day. oh yes, and stephen's back and he wants to go out with Kelsey. now THAT, is pure comedy.

Really don't want to go swimming at Norville on Wednesday :(

Bouncing off to do more maths C work then gotta start on Physics. [note to self: CALL HANNAH!]

the beauty exposed ;
