No Fun, All Work

All I have been doing for last two days is homework and I am so stressed. I had so much work due for tomorrow. I have a Chemistry validation and English in-class essay tomorrow, a Human Biology test on Tuesday and an in-class assignment for Religion on Wednesday.

Stephen and I tried to get Missy to walk on the treadmill with no luck. She just slides off the edge. If there is a Yummy at the end, she will get it, but she will stop walking. She doesn't know to use all of her legs. Her back legs are like brakes so when I try to move her forward, she doesn't. Oh well.

Well that's about it. No fun for a while!

Signing off.

The Looping Technique

Listening to My Confession by Josh Groban

I started off the day learning about esters in Chemistry and how they are formed.

In art, I began to make a copper wire bracelet with beads. The technique was to curl four wires separately, add bead to the loops and join the loops together. I created mine more tightly curled compared to the other people in my class, I am going to make it that the loops will be on one side of the bracelet and have the four pieces of wire to form a straight band which links to the loop I created.

In Religion, we took notes on the beatitudes of Jesus which we will need for our upcoming in-class essay we will be writing in two weeks time. I have never heard of beatitudes before and I find them quite interesting, because if you do a particular something, God will give you this.

In my free period, I taught people how to play Jim Rummy.

In English, I had an in-class essay where I had to write about two images. The question that we were given I found quite difficult to write on, even though I wrote two and a bit pages.

In Human Biology, we got our Assignments back. Mr Franchina hasn't finished marking the last question, but with the marks I do have, I'm on 76%.

I got home and tried to do my Applicable homework but I didn't understand it so I went on to study for my Human Biology test tomorrow.

We have bought a treadmill. We tried putting Missy on it, but she wouldn't walk. She just moved right off the back of it and it was only going at 1km/hour. I guess she was just scared.
