Random Nerdy Thoughts with Nandy


Hallo! In this post, I will just write down a bunch of thoughts that come to my mind throughout the day with the times I thought of them. So here goes nothing:

7:50 am - Why is everyone so loud?! Can't one sleep in peace for like 12 hours?

8:00 am - I guess I have to get up now... Full day ahead of me *sigh*

9:30 am - I am running so late! *Stuff breakfast in mouth mode turned on.*

10:00 am - I am prepared for the event. Come on girl! You spent a solid 30 seconds working on the roller coaster. Teehee 😀

12:20 pm - Duct tape balls are frauds!

2:00 pm - My butt hurts from sitting on the ground... Great! Nandy's here.

2:05 pm - Yay! I get to sit on an actual chair! Woot!

2:10 pm - LUNCHTIME... BREAK THING!

2:30 pm - I have to get up to go get writing utensils and a calculator. So far away...

2:40 pm - I have survived the treacherous trek to the bedroom without stepping and a staple, falling/tripping on something, or getting distracted by something! What an accomplishment! On top of that, I actually found my calculator and two pens in my desk(a.k.a. a black hole).

4:45 pm - So tired of sitting. Want... to... walk...

5:00 pm - Aah... Good old fresh air!

5: 05 pm - No! Nandy's leaving...

5:10 pm - Going to Woyu's house... So much fun!

5:50 pm - Why isn't the stupid foam staying still?! UGH!

7:00 pm - DINNER! I am starving...

7:15 pm - We did so well yesterday at Science Bowl! 5th place in REGIONALS... Not bad considering that the top two get to go to NATIONALS! So close, we lost to stupid Hopkins!

7:30 pm - Yay! Time to sleep(lay on a bed thinking)...

7:45 pm - Why are the weekends in my life so busy? Schedule for next and past few weeks:

  • 1/27 - Science Bowl (Half day)
  • 2/3 - Math League (Most of Day)
  • 2/7 - AMC 10
  • 2/10 - Science Olympiad Invitational (Most of Day)
  • 2/17 - Band Sight Reading Challenge (Half Day)
  • 2/24 - Dance Performance (Half Day)
  • 3/3 - Math Kangaroo (Half Day)
  • 3/10 - Science Olympiad Regionals (Most of Day)

Whole Day Summary - Eat. Science Olympiad. Sleep. Repeat.

BOWL! PLATES! CUPS! SPORKS!

SCIENCE! I am really busy right now so this week I will just give you a really quick update on my Asian, nerdy life.

I am really busy studying for my Science Bowl regionals tournament that is going to be held at Sandia Labs(Livermore) this Saturday. Making it into the team means a lot to me, because of many expectations.

  1. My brother was on the team for the last two years (Team captain last year)
  2. I was the only seventh-grade girl there (I wanted to prove that anyone can get in)
  3. All of my friends kept encouraging me (I just couldn't let them down) 
  4. Family expectations (Similar to the first expectation)
Normally, I wouldn't be this worried, but recently our coach/teacher said that instead of two teams (as we originally planned) we would only be allowed to take one team. I have been studying really hard this week to get in. Sorry for the really short(trashy) post this week! Be sure to check again next Monday because I will be doing a collab next week!

3-Day Weekend "Fun" and Terrible Timing

Hey! Did you all have fun during the "long" weekend? Mine was pretty moderate as most of my life is... You will realize that pretty soon.


Have you all ever had that moment where you go to a dentist(example) and then they ask you if any of your teeth hurt, how often you brush your teeth, etc? You say everything is fine...
1 HOUR LATER: "Ow! Why does my molar have to be so problematic?!"

The above scenario is kind of what happened to my brother on Saturday. All of his brackets were still intact when he left the orthodontist...
10 MINUTES LATER: "What is that sharp thing in my mouth?!" *Spits out a bracket* "Really! You decide to fall off now of all times!"
So my dad and brother called the orthodontist, Dr. Robert Chen, and he says come back in an hour and we'll just cut off part of the wire so it doesn't poke you. (He couldn't reglue the bracket since he needed an assistant to do that and the office was already closed.)

Other than that, I just worked on Science Olympiad and Science Bowl.

That is it for this post. Happy MLK day and see you all next Monday!

What I Did Over Winter Break and Rainy School Days

Ugh!

Normally I love school, but I hate waking up early in rainy, cold weather. The weather forecast says that it will rain all day today. I'm not a big fan of rain on a school day, especially Mondays, because:
  1. I have to go in between classes carrying an umbrella. (Since so many people are in my school, the probability of getting your eyes poked out are very high.)
  2. Lunch is always held in the Large Gym, so everyone is so squished and the entire gym is a mess.
  3. I have P.E. 5th period, right after lunch, so we have to wait for like 20 minutes for the gym to get cleaned out so we can do stuff indoors.
  4. I have to walk a mile home, and my (roller)backpack gets all wet as well as the stuff inside it.
  5. All of the above leads to soggy socks which make my feet cold.
  6. Mondays end weekends and means so much homework/projects. (I decided to post on Mondays because I wanted to have an upside of Monday, your feedback and comments.)

I know all of my teachers are going to ask everyone what the did during the break. If you guys were wondering what I did, read the list below(in no particular order):
  • Science Olympiad
  • Science Bowl
  • Watched Tiger Zinda Hai in Century Theaters(now you know I can speak in Hindi)
  • Watched Smurfs The Lost Village and Jumanji at home
  • Math League
  • Watched my brother get braces on some of his teeth
  • Had an eye appointment (my power increased)
  • Get lots of boxes of chocolate (from Christmas and other stuff)
  • Almost completely recover from hives
  • Had fun with friends (Dinner parties and stuff)
  • Start a blog!

Sidenote: If you want to know more about my brother's braces and our eye checkup, make sure you go check out his blog below:
