done with physics project...got a perfect score for it!!!

Sa wakas natapos din...
We made "something" out of straws and put a fresh egg in it.
The experiment was done a few hours ago.. during my English class, that's why i wasn't able to really see what happened. ='(
But after the class, i saw Sir Ian and asked for the grade of our group.
He said we got a perfect score...

The experiment was like this:

"Save the Egg Project"
(Egg drop)

• The egg will be placed inside our "creations."
• It will first be dropped from the 2nd flood of a building and will be checked whether the poor egg survived the fall.
• If there were no cracks, it will proceed to the next stage... a fall from the 3rd floor.
• If the egg still remain uncracked, the group would be given a passing grade.
• Plus, the construction and design of the "creation" will have respective points as well...

Di kami nanalo sa design... they said the other class got this award. Anyways, at least natapos na... no more problems... Exam na lang sa Lunes... right after makabalik ng Sunday from Sagada...

Exhausting summer.... indeed!

after the storm...

haven't blogged for a couple of days...
the system was down... good thing it's back to it's condition today.

AYER (Spanish, yesterday)
Typhoon EMOng stroke last yesterday... from signal no. 2 to signal no. 3...
it's so nice that i had classes during the morning that i was able to attend and enjoy despite the cold rain that made my feet wet (it was only signal no. 2 then... well i really didn't know that a storm was here until i woke up and a friend from Quezon City sent me a massage telling the news...).
by lunch, it was announced that the intensity of typhoon Emong reached a higher level which made it signal no. 3, thus, classes were canceled.
nice to be inside the dorm and eating lunch by that time...
by night..i was doing my assignment in English while all my roommates went down to the reception hall with the others to watch TV... the lights over there went off while the ones in the room dimmed a bit... all of them rushed screaming to their rooms. Elaine, one roommate, said that the power was down in many areas in Baguio... including our neighboring building.
i slept by around 12:15 am.

HOY (Spanish, today)
i woke up seeing the light from the window opposite me.
the storm was gone.
the sun is smiling again...
i put the heater, cooked my food, fixed my bed, ate my breakfast, took a bath, got dressed, grabbed my bag, walk to the school and signed the attendance in Physics...
no class today...
so i went straight here at the library doing this blog...
sooner or later I'll be signing out to go to my next class...

hope it would be sunny the whole day!
I'm just wearing a jumper-shorts and a blouse...
cross-fingers to that!

paranoid about the Black Hole

when we were in our Physics class early this morning, we had a few clips to watch about the space - it's discovery and age - in relation to gravity...
plus we got to watch a special episode from The Discovery Channel some sort about the Black Hole...
the sound effects and the narration were great as if we were watching a horror film..and the sound just terrified me...and also because the narrator really did well in scaring me.

i learned that Gravity is not a force but some kind of a curvature within the fabric of time and space...

and the thing that makes me feel so creepy about the idea of the Black Hole was that it was a dying star that was gathering enough energy...

it whirls and whirls until a thick cloud of gas surrounds it like a galaxy itself. This huge star whose size and mass is indescribably large (could be half the size of the galaxy it is located) would then shrink into a very small body while retaining its how heavy is was. Thus forming a seemingly endless abyss...dark and powerful thing that can attract other celestial bodies to its depth... depth that is unknown to human... a void that keeps so many mysteries in the billions of years that the universe had existed.

This just made me shiver... Thinking that i am lucky enough to live in this age where the possibility of being eaten by this monster is far as the sky. Good thing the Black Hole in this galaxy is said to be dormant (well I'm really not sure about this..maybe i didn't hear it right) and the Sun is still young as well...

i know the earth can still survive for thousands and thousands of years (hopefully). but the next problem being faced is not about the death of the sun or the Black Hole yet...but the thinning ozone layer and global warming..
i hope people would be concerned with this issue as well...
now that i believe something can still be done...
