Math Quiz Tomorrow (P.S.)



I've got three more assignments for math this week. I could do them each any time in the next two days but, I'm planning on doing them all tomorrow so I'll have Saturday free to just work on my research for my research paper and other stuff. My sister suggested I make a sign to put on my bedroom door when I get ready to take the quiz. I'll be glad to get it over with. I do my classes online and my math homework I've been able to keep trying to solve each problem until I get it right, but on this quiz there's a time limit. Ninety minutes, and I only get one chance to solve each problem. I feel confident about most of it. I think maybe the last section in chapter 2 is what I've had the most trouble with. Multiplying and dividing mixed numbers. I didn't get finished until some time past 9 pm. And I started at 11 am. Of course I'd worked on both section 2.7 and 2.8 today so that took me longer than it would've taken to do just one section. But I think it took even longer because Multiplying and dividing mixed numbers is really complicated. Hopefully I'll get the chapter reviews for chapters one and two and the quiz done as quickly as possible tomorrow. And then I'll hardly have any work to do this weekend. I like to get all my work done before Saturday each week if possible, so I can have plenty of free time Saturday and Sunday. Of course my work on my research paper is eight or nine weeks long, counting weeks one and two and this week up to now. But right now all I'm doing is taking notes. There's an art show coming up soon. I'm looking forward to that. With all my school work I'll have to try to remember to get my artworks ready in my free time by September 25. I don't know for sure what I'm going to enter yet. I'm thinking maybe one or more of them will be artworks I've won for at the other art show I enter in. So, I'm keeping busy a lot.

P.S.: I just found out that the Deviant Art gallery module off to the right on my blog wasn't working so, at least until they get it working again, I decided to go back to my old way of linking to my art gallery. So if you look over to the right there and click on the picture that says "My Deviant Art Gallery", that will of course take you to my gallery. If that module from Blogger keeps glitching I'll stick with this link.

I can't believe that you are taking a math class online! I could never do that, in fact I have put off taking my math class until the last possible minute... which is next semester :0/ Good luck with your quiz and I think the sign is a good idea that way every one will stay outta your way.
I prayed for you taking your quiz so let me know how it turns out!

My Comic Strip Series

I plan on debuting my new comic strip series this Sunday on here, as well as on deviantART. It's a three panel strip, and I plan on posting a new one every Sunday. This comic strip features the characters I've been blogging about on here, such as Jack Miller, Matt Kirby, Jennifer Kyle, etc. It will be right below the banner/header on here, and I'm thinking of putting it above my "Newest Deviations" section on my deviantART page. I'll archive the comic strips in a category in my gallery on there. You can go to my deviantART page by clicking on the link to the right. If you're interested, check out the first comic strip this weekend.

Sword of Omens

I was watching Thundercats last night and it occurred to me, there hasn't been a show like it since, or at least not many. For one thing, the animation is very realistic and detailed. Most animated action shows nowadays have a style similar to that of Batman: the Animated Series , or anime. Those types of animation are great, but there's been nothing that looks like Thundercats since the '80s or early '90s. Another thing is, as far as I remember, there also hasn't been many animated shows like it in the fantasy genre since. I think you could probably describe it as being somewhere between Lord of the Rings and Star Wars. I know there aren't talking cat people, living in a lair shaped like a giant cat, in either of those, but it sort of has the feel of those. Third Earth sort of resembles a world like the one in Lord of the Rings, with all kinds characters, but there is also technology like in Star Wars. Star Wars also has some worlds that don't look as tec

The Dalai Lama

"The Dalai Lama" I've been practicing line drawing with the book titled Sketching Basics , by Alois Fabry. I think this drawing turned out pretty well, but I might like to try doing a version without the shading. Alois Fabry has the reader start out just drawing lines, and towards the end of the project, he has them doing shading. Line drawing, from what he said, doesn't have shading or anything like that. I guess he tells the reader to add shading to make it more than a line drawing (Fabry, 18-23). I've been kind of following His Holiness, the Dalai Lama, and what he does. I've been reading his books. I like what he has to say about achieving inner peace, and being compassionate. He has some very interesting points of view on things. I think people could, and I'm sure have, learn a lot from him. He's a very wise man. Works Cited Fabry, Alois. Sketching Basics . New York: Mud Puddle, Inc., 1986. Print.
