Confession: I actually like school.

School is so fun.

Seriously.

I really like school, y'know.

Anyway, some highlights of school this week:

Balloon Armchair Competition - Critical Thinking Skills class

So Ms Stella, our CTS teacher, came into class that day telling us that today's work was building an armchair out of balloons. A legit armchair needs to have a seat, two armrests (THAT CAN ACTUALLY FIT YOUR ARMS) and a backrest that you can lean on.

She gave us thirty balloons and a roll of tape.

Here we go!

my group starting on our seat.
 

the guys' group's progress.
not looking like a chair of any sort yet. LOLOLOL.

the other girls' group with theirs.
double layers for their seat. hm.

After forty-five minutes, our chairs were starting to look like actual chairs. Some measuring of buttcheeks and test sitting was done and we were almost finished.

We then decided to have Sha-Mayne, the lightest in our class, to be the first chair-tester. After her would be Carmen. 

our finished products!

 

my group's armchair. ;)
it even has a headrest with our group name on it.
hohoho.

the boy's.
doesn't even look like an armchair, I know.
pathetic.
(just kidding!)

the other girls'.
looks like the most legit armchair ever.

and then we were asked to line them up at the back of the class.
left to right:
other girls', ours, the boys'.

 And so we started our competition.

Sha-Mayne went first.

All passed.

Then Carmen was next.

After they tried all three chairs, we were all celebrating because all the chairs could tahan their weight.

So we tried having Keenan to sit on the chairs.

All passed.

Then we had David.


All passed.

And we were all like WOOOOOO.

Class was over, so Ms Stella prepared to leave the class.

Just as we thought we had a tie, Melissa decided to become some unofficial tiebreaker and insisted on sitting on them.
So she did.

My group's armchair; one of the balloons popped! D:

And the other girls' armchair broke apart.

So the guys were just there rubbing it in our faces that they've won ALL the balloon competitions we've ever had. Which is true, by the way.

But we had so much fun so that's good, right? :D

Reproduction In Plants - Biology class

On the same day, during Biology class, we studied Reproduction in Plants.

So our teacher Ms Joyce brought loads of plants:

our group is kinda retarded. we were asked to cut open these fruits, and identify what the parts were.
but, with these shapes...
who can resist making this face? 

and this is the fruit of the water lily, that DISPERSES BY WATER ho ho ho i pay attention in class.
some of my friends find this ultimately... gross.
i don't know. O:

 Till next time! :)
