I'm getting better at using it, but still gotta learn some things and stuff.
Right now, I'm pressed with some rediculous homework: In English write an alternate ending to Vergil's "Aeneid", In Biology write about the life cycle of CAENORHABDITIS elegans, in Logic- study for a big test. And that's today's work....

Ugh...stupid caps stayed on. Caenorhabditis is a stupid (but highly complex and whatnot) model organism for its phylum (I forgot the phylum name) which is under kingdom Animalia. In simpler terms, it's a microscopic organism that's really complex and stuff.

yeah I just learned all about that Kingdom Phylum Class Order Family Genus Species
Usually, a species is called by its genus name (capitalized) followed by its species name (lower case), so a human being is called Homo sapiens. In Latin that means "wise man."

Hahah, nice! If you like the elves from the Lord of the Rings, I once saw a book in a bookstore by Tolkien himself about the languages of Middle Earth. It encluded Elven, Dwarven, and Rohirim-English-dialect.

Tolkien is the writer of Lord of the Rings. And what's so bad about it?

Oh...wow...
In English we've been having to review movies as if we were Aristotle reviewing a play, using his work "Poetics" as a guide. We review one movie he would have liked and one movie he wouldn't have liked. One person in my class did their good movie review over The Fellowship of the Ring...so, yeah...I myself, did Valkyrie as my good movie and The Spiderwick Chronicles as my bad movie.

That is cool doing an assignment while watching movies, that Spiderwick movie was really strange, my baby cousin made me watch it.

Post by The Wayfaring Stranger on Feb 23, 2009 12:47:33 GMT -5
Yeah. It was cool. The Spiderwick Chronicles' plot line was awful (and plot was most important to Aristotle), making that movie baaad.

I fell asleep in the middle of it and woke up to my cousin hitting me it the head with a dinosuar stuffed animal. he was all about asking why I fell asleep and I told him everything that was wrong with the movie. he must not have understood me because he fell asleep.

yeah I liked Valkyrie I remeber seeing it once if I remember correctly

Post by The Wayfaring Stranger on Feb 23, 2009 16:37:24 GMT -5
Valkyrie was good. Someone in my class said it was the worst movie he had ever seen, but that's probably because he was most likely expecting an action movie.

yeah I remember some on when I was walking in school talking about it like that, people always say something's bad if it's not what they thought was going to happen.
