Voicemail has its uses, for example, when one won't be able to pick up the phone for awhile, but needs to relay a message immediately, or when other forms of communication are not possible, i.e. e-mail or texting is inconvenient or irrelevant.

However, I still usually end up ignoring it, thus rendering most of the pros as moot.

On the subject of high school friends, just because you're different, doesn't mean you can't be friends.

Pi is wrong.

Well, actually, maybe it would just be better to use what is currently known as 2*pi. I've always thought it would be easier if sine and cosine had periods that were just pi, not 2pi.

So should pi be 6.283185...? Should pi be the ratio of the circumference of a circle to its radius, instead of diameter? If so, it would take about 50 years for this to gain any momentum in the mathematical community.

It was 10:30 pm, June 30. AP scores are going to be released tomorrow.

Tomorrow is going to be here in under two hours... I wonder if I could wait? WAIT! College Board headquarters is located on the East Coast!

Eager to hear my scores, I scoured the website for the number. No... that's not it... customer service? No... Ah! Grades by phone!

Testing out my theory, I decided to call the number, just to see if it would work. Lo and behold, I got the automated answering machine telling me to...

As the seconds slip away from this day...

As the crackle of backyard fireworks fades in the distance...

I am reminded of what happened two centuries and three decades ago...

Happy Independence Day to the US!

Thoughts from a Sentimental Senior

Something about late nights must make me ponder about life.

I am a senior. I have a year of school left before this era of my life is over. How time flies. Wasn't I just a freshman?

I don't want the good times to stop. I know that I have to move on. I realize that the future is full of great times, too. But still, I can't deny the great moments spent in high school.

Next year is the last year. I want to make the most of it. Carpe Diem! Take chances and go forth! This summer has so far...

Good-bye blues

I have been lax. I haven't had much inspiration for a new entry. But since I don't really have a regular userbase, I decided that's not much of a problem. Once someone reminded me that I hadn't posted, I decided to muster up something.

There's something bugging me. I'm looking at it right now. It's my monitor. Here and there, it'd have short spurts of "yellow fever". That is, everything would gain a yellow tint. More precisely, it would lose all of its shades of blue. For those that know colo...

Ice Cream Day

Happy National Ice Cream Day!

I found out about this great holiday two years ago at leadership camp via the morning radio alarm. Much to my chagrin, their ice cream machine happened to break down that day. Luckily, we stopped by McDonalds and I got my fill there =D.

A true entry should come soon. Until then, fight the heat with some cool iced creams!

Edit: Apparently this is the 4th Sunday. Since there are 5 sundays this month, I got con...

Computer science and online activities

So this is the first real entry in awhile, it seems. I just haven't had much inspiration. Three days ago, I decided to just write down topics that I would expand later to a real entry and I came up with a few. So there's the inspiration, but I still was just too lazy to go ahead with it. So, here I am now. I'm going to somehow relate this to the computer... so let's start with...

AP Computer Science! I finally got in my results. (Oddly enough, I still don't have my AP US History results yet.)...

omghi2u - On online chat-speak

AOL speak. How infamous. It can be summed up in this quote: "Relationships are so easy on the internet: it all starts with 'asl' and ends with 'stfu'." That's not exactly verbatim... but still. I've heard "wtf" be used at school and "brb" on occasions, both jokingly and not. "wtf" I can see used as a euphemism, "brb" I can see used as an abbreviation (but it's 3 syllables still, unless pronounced "burb"... which I've heard). But when one gets to "lol"...

I may occasionally abbreviate words wh...
