Tricky Math Q:

Very tricky math! Note: This must be done in your head only. Do NOT use paper and pencil or a calculator.

Try it.



Take 1000 and add 40 to it. Now add another 1000. Now add 30...

add another 1000. Now add 20. Now add another 1000. Now add 10.



What is the total? Did you get 5000? The correct answer is actually 4100.

Look Here!!!

EVERYONE EVERYONE! Please pay attention...

I have installed a Hit Counter at the bottom of this web page. It counts all the people who visit this site starting May 29 2010. So just be warned I KNOW IF YOU HAVE LOOKED OR NOT. I know that not alot of people look at the bottom of the page, so I figured you needed me to tell you.

Just wanted to make that announcement :)

Neighbors

mom went to some class at the hospital. so im here, babsitting. For the third time this summer. it hasnt even been a week since school has been out!!!

And i went outside to play and work on my tan. well the way the land is, our neighbors backyard is way higher than ours. so they can totally see over our fence into our yard, which is rly awkward and wierd. so im sitting there on a lawn chair, and they can totally see over the fence into our backyard. So im like theres no way im sitting out here, havin these creepers watch me. so i went in :)

but then i went out later, and got my hour of sunshine. so its all good.

Band Concert

I just went to one of my school's band concertos (thats spanish for concert). It was so great!!!! I always get sentimental at those things. I dont know if its cuz the music (i love classical!) or if it is becuz im going to high school next year (we have the concerts at the high school). But i just know i get kinda thinking and kinda wanna cry. Its weird.
But anyway, it was super fun! I have school-friends that are in band, even a jw, so Im happy and proud of em all :) They all dressed up in dresses, heels, and ties, so it wasnt all dumpy-looking like the casual band concerts, haha.
I dragged my mom, madi, and tyler there too, so i hope they enjoyed it! I had fun.

Piano Recital

I just went to a reeeeally long piano recital for my cousins. They're twins. So cute :)
But it was sooooo long. Not really boring, just kinda annoying. Their teacher was SOOOO annoying! She kept getting up on the stage and giving these REALLY stupid comments and telling these stories. You have no idea!
So anyway, the kids were pretty good. All 68 of them.

Christian played "Red roses for a blue lady".
Oliver had this super cute costume, and played this song about white hills or cliffs or something. I dont remember what it was called, but he was good.

Christian won an award for his costume, which was rly cool. He had a cape, red bow-tie, and my cousin, Elizabeth, was the blue lady. She stood next to the piano and looked sad. It was great.

So we ate ice-cream after, and it was fun. I got to see my distant Phillipeno relatives (by marriage, of course- Im obviously not 30% Phillipeno or anything).

I got carsick on the way back- it was a rly long ride from Garland, so thats a downer.
