I really want to write a blog. But the thing is, I have nothing to write about! So I have actually no idea what this blog will be about.:P I'll just see what happens...
I can start off by saying that tomorrow I'm having a math test, algebra. I am actually excited, Feather you know what I mean!;) I hope I'll do well.:D
Oh, and I could now explain the grading system in Sweden. I've heard it's quite different from other countries. We have 4 levels: IG, G, VG and MVG. G stands for "godkänt" which means "passed". G is actually not a bad grade; about 80% of all the students will in every subject get a G in the end. Most people only have the grade G, in all subjects. IG means that you don't pass it. VG and MVG however, are much harder to get than G. Even if you study really hard, you can't count on getting one. Some people have never gotten anything higher than G, it's not because they don't study. It's because they just can't get it! Because to get graded with a VG or a MVG you have to do more than just remember facts, you have to be able to reflect and come up with creative solutions. For example: I studied economics a while ago. On the test we had questions like "describe what recession means". This is a G question. If you want a higher grade, a VG or MVG, you answered questions like" Imagine you are the president in a country. The country needs help, it is in deep recession. People are moving away and many are forced to quit their jobs, the stock markets are dropping and businesses are shutting down. What do you do? Make a political plan to change the fate of your country!" I mean, this is not the easiest thing to do! I don't even have the right to vote, and they expect me to be able to run a whole countries economy! If your answer on this question was really good, you got rewarded with a MVG and if it was ok you got a VG. It's of course not a guarantee to get a higher grade; most who tried it got a G either way. Sometimes the teachers hand out + and -, but it doesn't really matter. On their paper they can't write + or -, so it's only for us to know a little more exactly how it went.
You bored? :lol: I wouldn't be surprised! :P
And also short, I watched House last Tuesday. It was the episode "Insensitive". And yes, Sweden is actually that far behind... It's the episode with the CIPA patient; in the end it turns out she's got a tapeworm. After this episode I looked up the worm she had, the "Diphyllobothrium latum". I find it so cool that his worm is the longest tapeworm that effect humans. I am very afraid when it comes to bugs and stuff, but if there are any bugs or creeps that scare me, it's worms. Since I was little I have been afraid of catching parasites like these. Ugh! I get shivers down my spine just thinking about it! But, that's not all. I am so fascinated about insects, worms and spiders. I can't help it! I once saw a larva in my house, I freaked out and would jump over that spot for about 2 months before I could even touch it, but still I looked it up. To know what species it was! Anyway, what I wanted to say was, ISN'T IT GROSS! Fascinating animal, though.
On a less boring or creepy note, Feather is detoxing and experiencing withdrawal symptoms, now is the time to tease her. I have already gotten her a quiz, but you should do it too! Then it'll be harder to resist! :lol:
And today I got the grades back at the movie we did (I didn't tell you about that, did I? Meh..). And I got a MVG! Woop woop! A - though, but it's still a MVG! I got so happy, because I felt it went badly... But you never know!:D
Leila, the franjanjan weapon is a ... Maxandrine! I came up with the name when I was eating a tangerine. There's something wrong with my jaw so each time I open and closes it, it clicks, and because I know that jaw in Latin is celled "maxilla" I came up with the Maxandrine! Random? :P Here is what a Maxandrine looks like:
I know it looks like a toy lion, but it's a really good defence weapon. Because it looks so innocent, you can take it with you wherever you want! It's the great camouflage...
It's really dangerous; this is what happens if you let your kid play with it "Because it's just a toy lion".
Not such a good move. Stupid move my friend, stupid move...
Pfft, nothing to blog about... I have to learn how to write shorter blogs! :P Comment me 'till I have the tapeworm out of my mind! *hugs*
