I'm Finally Out For Christmas Break
And I'm tired as heck.
I still have some Christmas shopping to do. That's pretty funny, considering that it is exactly a week before Christmas. Heh.
I've already gotten Mom some things and my sister-in-law, Maggie. Now I'm left with Nathan. :p
Also, at our house, we have this stocking thing.
Mom fills mine- er excuse me, Santa Claus fills mine. And I- er I mean, Mrs. Claus fills my Mom's stocking.
That's fine, really. Except for the fact that Mom's stocking is a really stocking from like 1920 or something. It also happens to be about 3 feet long, and it stretches. So, I think while we're at Walmart today, I'm going to sneak off. And no, I'm not telling you what I got for her. She knows about this website and she does read it occasionally.
I Wish That I Was As Smart As This Guy
A 17-year old guy translated some ancient hieroglyphics that no one at the museum could translate. Wow. No one has been able to translate the text for 100 years. Good grief. Budding geniuses! Come and get 'em while they're fresh!
You don't find many like that. Whew.
Although, sometimes I think of math as hieroglyphics. So when I finally translate it, should I get an award or something? Oh well. I'm done with math for the rest of my high school career. I'll find out what I made on my exam in the next day or two. Maybe. Hopefully? Do I really want to know?
I think I did okay. I think I passed. So, I think I'm okay.
