I need to work on my coiled snake impression

All week I have been taking notes in my head about things to blog about, and, well, I can't remember any of them. It would be nicer if my brain was a computer. Then I could just save my ideas and I would only lose them if I deleted them. Although, I've never had much luck with computers. Today, my computer shut-down on me for no reason. I swear I didn't do anything! Maybe it was mad at me for going for a few days without using it (gasp! I went days without using my computer?! I don't believe it either).

Friday, I went to the Field Museum for AP Bio. It was so much fun! Well, most of it. We had to go through this exhibit called "The Evolving Planet" and Mr. S gave us a ginormous packet to do. Which wouldn't have been so bad except no food or drink was allowed and I was dying of thirst. When we were about halfway through, there was a map on the wall of the exhibit, and when I saw it I was like, "gaaaa! We're only halfway through!" Well, ok, I didn't say it like that, but that's what I was thinking. I was so caught up in my thirst I could barely remember anything past the dinosaurs.

We strolled through the DNA area like we were supposed to and took pictures with Sue before going to the Egyptian exhibit. I liked seeing the mummies.

Then, we went to the animal exhibit. That's where the real fun was. We spent our whole time there taking pictures posing as the animals. We have some funny pictures with everything from Rinny being a baboon to me being a worm. Good times. But we didn't look at the entire exhibit because we had to leave, so naturally, we got lost trying to get out.

Hablas espanol?

Today I ditched school. No, just kidding, but I had a field trip so I didn't have to go to any of my classes. For AP Spanish, we went to the Art Institute where we had folding stools to sit on and contemplate the art and where the lady showing us around kept getting lost due to construction. Then we went to a tapas restaurant for lunch. I decided I had to at least try everything (yum, goat cheese), and everything was tasting great until I got to this mushroom with green stuff in it. When I was chewing it I thought I was going to barf. There was no way I could swallow it. I had to spit it out. The chocolate cake was really good (yeah, I was eating chocolate cake while you were in class). Then we got to go home early.

PS. Sorry I don't know how to make an upside-down question mark or a tilde.
