A New Level of ibness

About a dozen of us were racing down the halls to the math room today. Gleefully running to be first in line for a Graphing Calculator (GDC). It was said that we have reached a new level of "IB-ness". I mean, how many people do you know who would do a breakneck sprint for math? None who are non-IB (or go to the school of Math)! Anyway, the reason we were running is because we needed to get our GDCs to use over the Break for our big IB Math Task and somebody had said there was a limited number of the CDs for doing screenshots of the GDC.

In other news, NO HOMEWORK over the Break! Except our math task. And reading half of Frankenstein. Which, compared to what was expected, is pretty light.

Our workload this week was pretty light. Our Historical Investigations were handed in, some people had their IOP presentation today on 1984, and we had to get the good copy of our 1984 essay done. We also had a math test on Matrices today, which I felt was pretty simple. I know I would have been better prepared had I done my homework, but I still think I did pretty well on it. Tomorrow is expected to be a snow-day and there were a lot of people planning not to come any way. I myself won't go if the roads are too dangerous.

I'm excited about the break.I only officially have 4 full nights of sleep left! Monday I'm starting my switch to Polyphasic Sleeping. I'm considering doing a video log on YouTube and linking it, or doing both a written and video log. Tell me what you think. And also, should I start a new blog and link back here or should I do my Polyphasic logs on here too? I'm cutting my previous poll short and putting this up instead. :)

Aha, you're pretty interesting. I myself am a Year-1 IB student and yes, it IS torture. Veteran IBs constantly come to our school, say how easy they have it after IB and how much it helped them.
I don't believe them. : \

Funny how you have this free time (or procrastinating) to write about it all.

I like your study sheets by the way. Very useful. We're doing Trig at my school too ^^

I'm guessing your school is semestered as you only talk about a few subjects. Do you find it easier four at a time per semester.

Thanks again for sharing all this : )
