Today at my school we are having a rally at seventh and eighth period today. Actually instead of going to lunch and then seventh period we are going to seventh period and then go to lunch, then we go to eighth period and then we go to the rally. So all the period were shortened by a bit today. I have no idea what the rally is going to be about, it might be about Easter or Spring break, or something. But I did hear that they were going to do a Harlem shake activity or something. 

I hear about the Harlem shake from my friend in first period. He is in leadership and the miss school for the whole day today so the can set up the rally. I wish that I would have signed up fir leadership instead of any of my other electives. Any way, all I know about the rally is that they will do a Harlem shake. So after this period I will go to seventh not lunch today.

Today is March 15, but yesterday was March 14, it's not just  the fourteenth, it was also pi day. It's not an actual holiday, but it's fun to celebrate it. Pi = 3.14 and yesterday was 3-14-13. If cut of the year it's the same as pi 3.14, and 3-14. So yesterday a teacher named Mr. Doorman had something planned that involved how many numbers you could remember in pi. It goes like 3.14159..... It was during lunch, and a kid remembered two hundred something words, I was there but all I remember is two hundred. 

My math teacher or actually the substitute, Mrs. Moon gave us all moon pies since her name is Mrs. Moon, hardy har har. The pies were good I never had a moon pie before, and it was a good first experience taste. So I ate it during the break, and it was mildly sweet. So then we didn't have homework, and we just found the circumference of round things that she gave to us, Mrs. Moon provided the rulers. So yeah it was fun on pi day and I can't wait for next year when it's on a Friday so yeah that's all.

I think that dodgeball is really violent, but also really fun. It's only fun when you get the ball and throw it at someone. There are many types of dodgeball. There's one where you ar against teams on two sides of a court, there's one where you are in a circle and people throw balls at you. The last one is where you are against a wall and people are trying to throw balls at you. So each is fun, or dangerous in its own way. I think that when where you are against other teams is more fun because it;s fair and everyone gets a chance to throw the ball, unless you run out and you're the only one on your side. 

The other versions are unfair in my opinion because there are people inside a circle or up against a wall, and people are throwing balls at them. But when you are in the circle or against the wall it really gives a you adrenaline, and excitement. The reason for this is because you are trying to dodge these ball flying at 10 mph heading towards you face. It gives you quite a rush. Throwing the ball is probably the best thing to do because you really feel powerful to make everyone scared of you.

Today in my second period we launched rockets made by the students for the first time this semester. My second period is rocketry or science workshop, in case your were wondering why we launched rockets. Anyway the rockets went really high, at least the first one. We made the rockets out of 2 liter bottles, and made the fins and taped them on the bottle. The rocket is actually made out of two rockets because we used another one as the nose cone. 

We cut one in half and tape it to the BOTTOM of the rocket so the other side will be the thrust so that it can burst into the air. We taped fins on the side that was supposed to be the thrust. Before you tape the bottles together you have to out clay into the nose cone so that it has weight to go high enough into the air. Today only half of the class got to launch their rockets because it would take too long to launch all of ours in one day. So only some of them went high because they the right amount of water in them. If you out too much water in it the rocket wouldn't go as high as it would. But if you out to little of water in the rocket then the rocket will only go so high. Mr. West, our teacher, told us to put between 600th of water in there. It was 600th of something, but I forgo t what it was. But anyway that's it for this blog, have a good time, and happy Friday!
