Oh my god...it was SO BORING!!! There was one teacher who was cool who has a Ph.D. He teaches science and is called Dr. Poppem. Pronounced how it looks. He was pretty cool along with Mr. Smith. He is funny and cool. But overall it was hot and boring. But there is this new chick at my school and is in my Art class and she is SO FRIGGIN HOT! Good god. If you didn't know I'm in 8th grade now (*Applause in background*), Thank you, thank you. And during one of the classes I was like "Woah...this is weird. I don't feel like I should be here." And I was thinking like that and like "How did it happen" It was a strange feeling. I hate the first day of school because they talk about the same stuff as the year before and I don't pay attention to them hardly any. I got sent to the office though for cussing a kid out because he was being a bitch. Everything blew over after that.
But dang! It was a lame experience. Highschool should be better, I hope. Don't say it wont get better because that will make me feel bad. But I wanted to share a couple brain teasers I learned, one is from Dr. Poppem when there was nothing else to do in quest and the other is from another student.
1. There are 8 balls. Just normal balls. But one is 10 times heavier than the others but looks the same. They ALL look the same. You also have a balancer thing (Where you put something in a sheet and something else on the other landing sheet thing and see what weighs more, you know?) and you can only use the balancing scale twice. How do you find the heaviest ball with only ten tries?
2. A man works for a 20 story building. He works on the twentieth floor. He goes into an elevator, only him, only one elevator. He presses the button and goes all the way to the first floor and leaves. But when he gets back in he has to go to the 5th floor and walk up the stairs all the way back. Why? (This one is simple but you may make it too complicated for yourself. Only one elevator, nobody else on the elevator, he works on the 20th floor. )
Just answer these once. Take a guess please.
