all you need is a cell phone and a microwave. ...and some bananas if you feel extra Steins;Gate-y today.

my favorite word during middle school was pneumonoultramicroscopicsilicovolcanoconiosis. I actually blurted it out so often that it became part of my everyday vocabulary. I'm sure my teachers were annoyed to an extent, but it brought me an unreasonable amount of joy. I even got some of my friends in on it, lol. haha, good times. oh, wow...whaddya know. I just realized that this was the first time I was able to spell it right.

nope nope nope nope nope nope I hope you're referring to the nail bed rather than the nail tips stubby nail beds are annoying, but short nail tips are not. also, long nails are more vulnerable than short nails because they're more prone to chipping. I'm not sure why I feel so strongly about this. I have a few friends who dislike cutting their nails, but long nail tips will always be a huge pet peeve of mine.

Everything that happened after the Kir arc was completely blown off to the side, and a few episodes later, it even felt like it never existed. There was absolutely zero elaboration on the happenings of Kir after the arc ended, which really made the entire arc feel like a huge waste of time. I would have expected such a dramatic arc to be referenced at least somewhat regularly other than with the musings of Scar Akai. At least it didn't turn out as anti-climactic as the Bourbon arc. As of right now, the Bourbon arc easily takes the cake was the worst arc in the series. That's not to say that the Kir arc was bad though. It most certainly was a good arc--what bothers me was its continual decreasing relevance after it ended. tl;dr, DC took a turn for the worse after the Kir arc.

I am deeply offended by this generalization of yours. haha, jk. but these convertible notebooks are actually a lot more convenient than you think. some of the screens are removable and it allows the convenience of a touch screen with a standard Windows layout. I personally think it's fantastic. I'd get one the moment I find the opportunity, but of course, there's nothing wrong with disagreeing.

lol, PE was the bomb back in elementary school. I loved those square scooter things and that huge multicolored parachute.

don't we all? isn't it just that some people are more introverted or extroverted than others? silly neologists.

lol, you're over thinking what I'm trying to communicate. I'm talking about the transfer of energy between molecules or matter. If there's no transfer of energy, nothing will happen. It's like when someone is trying to push a box. If you don't apply any energy (assuming there aren't other varying forces either), the box won't move. Yeah, I've heard of string theory--though I'm not sure how it relates to the heat death.

aw geez, are you kidding me? having one of those would be awesome. a touch-screen laptop that can be converted into a tablet? count me in.

I just listened to a bunch of covers from JuNCurryAhn. Gosh, I freaking love the guy.

It's both, actually, haha. Once the universe reaches thermodynamic equilibrium, everything will be at the same temperature, and at the same time, nothing will "happen" or "occur" anymore because there will be no more energy transfer between molecules.

Err.... I'm such a wimp. 四川人不怕辣;湖北人辣不怕;湖南人怕不辣。 Spicy food all the way.

not necessarily the heat death implies that everything will end up the same temperature--whatever that number may be.

I don't know if you've learned about this stuff yet, but entropy is a fundamental in the heat death. In case you didn't know, entropy is the measure of how disordered something is. The higher the entropy, the more disordered it is. The natural order is disorder. ex. Dropping food coloring into water causes the molecules to scatter in the solution--from high to low concentration, therefore making the final result a more disordered arrangement of the food color molecules. The same concept can b applied to perfume. Now, we get into the good stuff. You know how heat radiates? That's also an example of entropy. In a more simplified sense: Heat or energy is also required for things to function. In order for something to "happen" entropy needs to be increased, or changed. One day, when all that heat or energy is fully, and equally dispersed throughout the universe, nothing will be able to "happen" anymore. The universe will end up at a state of thermodynamic equilibrium.

lol, the most difficult song we played in middle school was probably pieces from the Phantom of the Opera. The constant shifting to 7th position was a pain, but fun, nonetheless. My current high school divides the strings into three orchestras: freshmen, concert, and symphony. Auditioning for symphony was one of the most nerve wracking things I've done in my life because it's such a huge step up from the other two orchestras. Symphonic band is also fantastic. Honestly, symphony orchestra is nothing without them, haha. *cough* Shostakovich *cough* Our choir sucks though--I'm not gonna lie, lol oh u gon get it now cue the angry mobs

I'd have to disagree. I'm much more in favor of the heat death.

c-c-c-combo breaker?

Isn't that just tradition? (; Haha, I tease my band friends for playing scrap pieces of metal and they tease me for playing firewood, lol. I don't think anyone in either band or orchestra has ever been offended by this, so it's all in good fun. There are three different orchestras at school, but the orchestra I'm in also requires top band members to audition, so we've all settled our differences. Both the band and orchestra programs are really strong in our school so everyone has mutual respect for each other by this point. I'm not too sure about choir though. I don't have many friends in choir since it's relatively small.

Everything at our school is unusually well-balanced. The sports, the arts programs (both the band and orchestra have incredible conductors), most of the teachers (hated my summer school govics teacher), the school spirit, the classes, the faculty...just everything. I love everything about the school. Though, I'd have to agree on the elitism that band and orchestra brings to the table. However, everyone in those circles is incredibly friendly to each other, and it has never reached the point where we ever singled out a person for not playing an instrument or for playing an "enemy" instrument--it's more like mutual acceptance, if that makes sense. The hardest class I've taken/am taking is BC (at a tie with AP chem), and while BC is still a pain in the ass, the teacher I have definitely makes it all worthwhile--even to the point where it might actually be one of my favorite classes. Actually, I could say the same for most of my classes. As cheesey as this may sound, this love-hate relationship is one of my main motivations to keep going. I absolutely love my school, but I complain so much about the workload that I never take the time to appreciate the quality of education and standards it provides for the students. I'm even ashamed to say that senioritis kicked in for me not too long ago. After all I've experienced in this high school these past few years, only now have I begun to realize how much of this I take for granted. I've been spoiled rotten by our school because I mistakenly/stupidly assumed that every school is like the school I go to, and I don't think I'd ever last a day if I happened to transfer to your school. Part of me hopes that you're over-exaggerating your predicament, and part of me wishes that you could transfer to our school because you really do deserve better. I've had a pretty decent high school experience so far and I can only hope that things take a better turn for you in these last remaining months. Even though your current situation doesn't sound all too pleasant, I sincerely implore for you to make the most out of what you do like about your school. *sends virtual hug*<3

truer words have never been spoken.

ohohoho, I'll assume that you use polymer clay? haha, I haven't touched mine in years. I put my vote on Gin. heh.

aw geez, I got a lot of 1984 vibes from this comment of yours. Gosh, that sounds awful though. We get a lot of freedom around here, but the only places we're allowed to visit without permission during lunch is the cafeteria and library. Hall monitors take care of the outcasts, haha. I really do love the school I go to, but I never actually take the time to reflect on it. Still, best of luck to the remaining days of your senior year!

I think the biggest problem people have with childhood friendships is that it's a "cheap" way to progress a relationship between people. It's the easy way out as opposed to actually letting the two people go through legitimate development. I don't mind the childhood friend cliche because it can be effective when utilized properly, but Gosho went overboard with the concept and it became much too repetitive within DC, hence why people tend to look down upon it around here.

the worst part is when it takes forever just to find them

back in middle school, I'd skip lunch and head to the school's library just so I could finish my math homework early, ahahaha I mainly use that time to socialize with my friends now. ahhh man, how times have changed...
