7th week #2

Today, Sarah Karr's father came to Wasatch and he talked about stem cells. Actually, Mr. Kuhn gave me study hall because I was at his lecture already during A block. Basically, he talked about what a stem cell is. How it is used, and what for. Just like the homework we were given. I thought it was pretty interesting to know how a clone is made. Even though it is not allowed to clone a human, I would like to make one of myself if it was allowed.

7th week #1

Well, Mr. Kuhn was not there today because he went to salt lake or something so we just had a normal website day. I worked on my key terms that we have for homework, and finished it. There were over 30 words so it took me a little longer than usual. I need to work on my website soon though. We are already almost done with chapter 10!

6th week #2

Today, we continued studying eyes. We saw couple of more optical illusions.
And we worked on our pathology report too. I researched blurred vision. I'm still not really sure if it is actually an eye disorder, but I was curious about it so I did it anyway :p

I am pretty much blind without contact lenses so I wanted to write something about vision. I guess mine is just inherited though....

I thought about getting a surgery that we saw the video of, the other day. But it looks scary....

6th week #1

Okay let's see what we did this time....

OH! we were looking at the optical illusions. They are so interesting. I always try to figure out how it works, but I never do. That is why they are called "illusions." I like looking at them though. "Spinning Lady" is my favorite :). I think that is the one that I will never be able to figure out what is really going on.

It was a good lecture.

5th week #2

What we did today was to draw a diagram of "reflex arc", and "brain." And find functions of each and stuff like that. I am really not an artistic person so my drawing was horrible.... I just tried to make it look like brain and reflex arc haha...

I think I like this nervous system though. At least I like it better than muscle system.

It is just that I was too tired today to do anything in human anatomy class because I had AP biology unit test right before that. AND I didn't do good at all ;(

5th week #1

It is the second day since we have started studying the nervous system. Mt. Kuhn showed us such a gross video of old surgery. It was about a doctor sticking a needle to the brain through eyeballs. Apparently it used be used when they had brain disorder. It is such a disgusting idea though. Even if I got some brain injury, I would not want to have that surgery. They are not allowed to have the surgery anymore, but I wonder why they didn't forbid it way long ago.....It hurts the brain even more....

4th week #2

So we changed most slides of our power point, because last time, we wrote too much information in one slide, and it was harder for other people to read, and to get what we were talking about. Nick and I got together after that and changed everything, and fixed everything as well.

When we presented it today, people said that it was so much better than the last time which made me happy. It was not good that Lauren and David didn't work hard on this project, like Nick and I did, but sense we finished it well, we have no problem with that, I guess.....

I dislike the group project though. I can do better if I had to work on it on my own.

4th week #1

Today, we finally presented our projects. Most of the groups that presented today had made a movie, so it was easier for them to present it. We had a powerpoint.
The movies were really funny, and I liked them. I found many things that my group need to fix. And apparently, Lauren is leaving on sometime before we present it again, so we definitely need to find somebody else to read a script. This is frustratingggg!!
