Reflection


So far, physics has been an exhilirating rollar-coaster ride. There were its ups and downs, but of course more ups than downs. =) I honestly always look forward to coming to class (except on test days =P). Labs are always fun, even though most of the time it involves alot of math. The atmosphere of our classroom is fun and very welcoming, i always feel comfortable in class. The physics context itself is fun and interesting, therefore it makes class even better. I chose a happy face as my picture that represents my feelings about this past quarter in physics because my feelings about physics are good, i like physics. My goal for the upcoming quarter is just to give my best efforts, no matter what the grade may be. Overall i am satisfied with this past quarter, and look forward to the rest of the year. oh! and physics is by far wayyy better the chemistry (shhh) =P!

15th Birthday Party





This past summer, we had a swim meet on the first weekend of July called Keo Nakama Invitational. It was a two day meet and on Saturday night we went someones house for a potluck/team bonding dinner. Being typical girls, my friends and i love taking pictures and we went outside to take some. We decided to try to make a pyramid. Due to gravity or the acceleration of -9.8 meters per second squared, it was more difficult than we thought. We fell a couple times. When we were falling we were experiencing free fall at the rate of -9.8 meters per second squared, the same as the gravitational force. However, after many trials, we finally mastered the pose. Maybe if we were on a different planet with a gravitational force less than what we have on earth, we would have had an easier time.....
