Last Blog!

Wow, I still can't believe that AP physics has come to an end. This year has passed so fast, its ridiculous! I still remember buying the book and thinking to myself...how are we gonna finish more than 1200 pages in less than a school year?! but we have now reached the end of our long journey of suffering and despair after failing our fair share of tests and quizzes. But yet, I do feel pretty accomplished because I did learn a whole lot about physics, and at times, class was actually pretty fun. Since its my last blog, I wanted to make a small list of memorable moments over the course of the year..

1) "You guys are crazy to be here...You guys are gonna suffer" (something along those lines) - Doc, on the first day of school
2) The massive ice crunching sounds I hear everyday
3) Making beats and singing songs with my buddy Adam in class (96 degrees in the shade, I do my thing, cool down, billionaire, replay)
4) Me and clint trying to harmonize even though it wouldn't work most of the time
5) Adam's ridiculous Kelly and Meatloaf jokes...example: "Do you like to eat meat loaf?"
6) Faceboard...A drawing of Meatloaf with guns, but not even close to the size of clint's biceps
7) Clint punching Adam in the face after a fight that I taped in the courtyard...Adam got licked, which was evident through his black eye (Kelli believed my whole story too)
8) Clint almost killing Elliot for taking his lucky seat
9) Adam and his recorder...playing the same songs over and over again...doc complaining of sound pollution
10) "Check the band spacing!" -Adam (seeing Adam sitting on the side doing nothing during labs)
11) "Can you invite me to your wedding when you and Cassie get married?!" -Kelli
12) Clint's blog: "Colin Tseng joined the group: Too Chinese fo Skoo"
13) Jamie and her supposedly huge flock of guys: Jon Wong, Jordan Tottori, Matt Lum, Adrian Catalan
14) Daniel's analogy of hanging mass and tension to represent the forces on Jamie
15) The scheduled fights: Elliot vs. Tara, Daniel vs. Jamie, etc.
16) Kelli responding to Adam's, "What did you do on Sunday?" with, "What did YOU do on Sunday? KENDRA?!"
17) Going to the snack bar whenever
18) Last but not least!...me and doc's fist bump at the orchestra concert.

There's a probably a lot more stuff but I can't remember right now. Good luck on the AP exam everyone!

2nd to last physics blog?!

Since we had an orchestra concert this weekend, I wanted to talk about sound waves and accoustics. We rented out Mamiya theater for our concert because it had better accoustics than lower gym or seto hall. Engineers specifically design these concert halls to direct the most crisp sound to the audience. In some places, the sound may seem distorted or muffled, which is caused by destructive interference of sound. Anyway, I can't believe it is already the last week of physics class. It's crazy how fast this year has passed. It felt like yesterday writing my first blog and thinking that I could never survive this class cause I started with a 75 or something on my first kinematics test that everyone thought was one of the easiest tests of the year. But yet, here I am, preparing for the AP test, and failing 3 out of every 4 quizzes that I take. I've actually been studying, but it doesn't seem to help that much. Ahh, well, good times this weekend. Got a fist bump from doc on saturday at the orchestra concert. That officially makes yesterday, may 1st, 2010, the best day of my life.
