merry christmas! happi new years!

well, 2009 was filled with memories and experiances. some good, some bad, some heroic, some dastardly evil, and others just...meh. anyways, if y'all been wondering where i went, it's because i'm busy writing this screenplay as a side project. more on that later on though, but it's planned to be finished by 2011; just in time for graduation! these blogs of mine have been doing nothing except gathering dust. rest assured, if anyone does care to read these things, something outta show up. cheers to -09 and waiting eagerly for '10!

an end of year rant

ok, it's the end of year (almost) and yet, ms. sanchez, mr. lacombe, mrs. mason et al. continue to pack on the projects. to be stright up honest, my head's spinning faster than that one song done by flo-rida. i'm already beat up and pretty much bushed, idk if sous-leutant peristein (pardon spelling) is either well or if he himself is pretty much tired after all. much less kori still has her spunk, and i still have no idea if anyone elese is tired or if it's just me that's ranting. anyways, just for heads up, i still have about 175,000 tons of homework, projects, etc to sink and finish off in addition to my credit retrival for algerbra. if anything, i still think 175,000 tons is still a bit too much for my qouta. hopefully, second wind will catch up soon. but something tells me that jr year's gunna be worse. so, here's to a grand finish, leave no trees standing, no grasses growing, no building recognizable, and no survivors.

British Concorde goes for big 40

On April 9th, 1969, the British had their fun with the Concorde prototype. On March 2nd, the French had their first flight in the Concorde and of the type itself. It has been 40 years since these flights. For 27 years, the Concorde has established itself as the premier SST of the world since it's conception. Now, 13 years later, the Concorde is scattered about in museiums all over the world.

To the aircrews, the engineers, and all involved with Concorde: cheers on your brainchild's 40th!

Today in HIstory.....

Today, we are learning about the anchient civilizations of Mezo-america. The area of Mezo-america encompasses the region of modern day Guatamala, costa rica, el salvador, and the Yucatan peninsula of mexico. Mezo-america is a term used to describe this region before Western contact. The Mezo-american civilizations that are particularly worth of note are the Olmech, The Toltech, The maya, the Aztech, and the Incans.

Today in Math....

Today, we are learning basic trigometry in Mr. Zirpoli's geometry class. We are learning how to find the magnitute of a vector (aka. the distance of the vector between two points) and where to find the direction of the vector. To find the magnitute of the vector, simply input the two points of the given vector into the distance formula. The resulting output is your magnitute of the vector. To find the direction of the vector, look at the vector and the direction that the vector is pointing to. You then explain where the arrow is pointing at.

If you will please note...

i've added a "jukebox" (aka, music player) at the bottom of the blog, if you haven't noticed already. requests are welcome!

A book Everyone should read.

Well, I first came across Jules Verne around the 3rd grade or so. My Liberian, also perhaps my closest friend, suggested that I "let my imagination loose" and that I "give Jules Verne a try". I didn't know what I was getting my self into. I was curious about science fiction either way. So, at her urging, I checked out Jules Verne's 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea. I don't know what urged me to do so, really. But the book was captivating. Albeit nothing near a horror story's excitement, I still find the book memorable even today. The book recounts the story of a French Professor, Professor Aronnax and his assistant, Conseil, as they investigate a phantom beast terrorizing the world's oceans. Most theorize that the beast is a narwhal gone mad, others resort to more fantasiful explanations. All international trade comes to a halt, and the world's merchant marines are pulled back to their respective home ports. At the same time, the United States government commissions the steam frigate, USS Abraham Lincoln, to stop this menace. Ned Land, a Canadian harpoonist, is also hired for the expedition. While underway towards the Pacific Ocean, the USS Abraham Lincoln is intercepted by the beast and Aronnax, Conseil, and Land are thrown overboard by the beast's attack. They soon find themselves aboard the Nautalius. Commanded and designed by the mysterious Captain Nemo (For the record, he's not Nemo from Finding Nemo. Instead, it stems from the latin word for "no man" or "no body. Btw, if ur in Latin with ms derzon and didn't know about this, she'll be really upset :P), the man is abord this submarine for two reasons: to conduct scientific research and to get back at civilazation by sinking it's merchant marines. In the meantime, Ned Land tries to escape, but is foiled until the end of the story. Will Aronnax, Conseil, and Ned Land escape? What is Captian Nemo's actual reason behind his attacks on merchant shipping? Can I stop asking questions?! (hopefully, yes :D) Find out for yourself. As for me, I'll think I'll turn in for the night and get some much needed z's.

Kimba the White Lion

Thank God it's FRIDAY!!!! and with that, a bit of respite, rest, and relaxation! here's some old anime: "Kimba the White Lion". Debuted during the 1960's, the anime is quite old, not quite up to today's standards, but still understandable. This is the orginal 1966 dub, feat. billie lou watt as Kimba. I think i'll start you off with the pilot episode, courtsy of blacklion50.

"The fictional musings of Johannes Wendler"

Right! just a bit of background info for this blog: it's a historical fiction war journal/diary of a WWII German fighter pilot. It follows his adventures over north africa and i'm thinking of starting another fictional war diary on another theater of WWII. Again, it's progressive and is updated daily! In the meantime, check out the nine light blog of my world lit teacher!
