The Earth is Hollow!

It's a tradition in AP physics for us to prank the teacher on April Fools. Two years ago a girl covered the entire room in little army men. Last year they covered his room in sticky notes. And this year, we needed something cool. Some friends of mine were planning to turn the room into a crime scene. I wanted in but April Fools was on a Sunday, the Sunday of conference no less, so I couldn't help. But I still wanted to prank my teacher. Then I thought of it!

A couple weeks ago when we were learning about gravity he was explaining how it's almost impossible for the center or the earth to be hollow, but there's groups of people who believe the earth is indeed hollow and the lost tribes of Israel are inside there with Hitler, just biding their time. We spent a whole day exploring their websites in class and our teacher showed us a letter that had come from the people inside the earth. If you want to read the letter, here's the link. Letter from Hollow Earth 

So for my prank I decided to write him a personal letter from the people of Hollow Earth saying they were very offended. My dad did some computer magic and made a fake email for me to send it with that belonged to the Tribe of Dan. Here's the letter. You have to read the original letter for this to be funny, just by the way.


Greetings Brother Taylor of the Exterior World,

We your Inner Earth Brothers are making ourselves known to you.

We are vastly unhappy with some of the things you have been saying about us.

Just because you are a master of Physics does not mean that you know all. There is a hollow Earth. But we also do not just float around or go into our sun. Everything is made in balance. Do not forget about the Fifth Dimension of Conscience.

If your blasphemy does indeed continue, we may have to move the day of our foreseen encounter.

We still love your Essence and we bless you.

The Inner Earth Council of the Twelve


Haha! Since it was a fake email, he couldn't reply so I didn't know if he got it. I was never so excited to go to Physics. I KNOW! Pretty crazy for me! Please see other physics related posts. When I got there, our teacher started off class saying he'd had a crazy break and told us about how he had been contacted by some people. Not being very good at being sneaky I was just sitting there giggling ridiculously the whole time he told the class. No one else thought it was very funny which made me sad. Luckily I found out from friends the other AP class thought it was hilarious.

Fast forward to today. We had a test. Blech. I actually studied for this one and it was a lot easier than all the other tests I've taken this year! But I got to the last question. It was: Which one of the following proves the earth is NOT hollow. The choices were:

Auroras in the North Pole are messages

Some Arctic whales can swim just as fast backwards as forwards.

There are ice caps on the poles. CAPS cover things.

I can't remember the fourth option. . .

EVERYTHING is proof the earth is hollow, which is the way our noodly makers planned it. Ramen.

I stared at that question for like, three minutes. It was a silly question, but I wanted to get it right. I originally picked the Ramen answer. Then I started second guessing myself, the question said NOT in all caps. So I picked the whales answer.

That was the wrong answer.

Oh well.

Fake

I feel like a lot of times when going through blogger, I'm always pushing the boundaries a bit. A lot of blogs seem to always be happy and awesome and they just won this free product from someone and it's great! And then, I'm over here in my little corner of the blogosphere wondering, hey, should I actually write about this? Is this something that you just pretend like it never happens? Am I the only one this happens to? My favorite moments are when I find someone cutting down those walls and sharing what life is actually like. That they have zits. That they don't have the perfect relationship and baby. That they've struggled with mental health. That they're secretly gross like me. (I took a quiz on buzz feed about how secretly gross are you, and I got pretty gross. In the guise of not being fake, I am sharing this fact with you all!) When I find those blog posts, I instantly feel a connection with that person and will automatically follow them on their life j...

Liebster-ing it up!

Funny story. A few days ago I was reading all the blogs I follow like I usually do. And of course I read  Jana's  blog and read about how she had won the Liebster award. I had no idea what it was, so I read her post full of fun facts, and for everyone I kept nodding my head going, I DO THAT TOO! Then today I re-read her blog, and realized that she'd nominated me for the Liebster award as well! It was a very exciting moment. Thank you! So I guess this is how it works, I think, I'm new to this whole thing. I totally just stole this off Jana's blog ;) "The Liebster Blog Award is given to bloggers by bloggers. It is a way to acknowledge each other and say 'you're doing a great job.' It is for blogs with 200 or less followers, so it's also a great way to spread the word about smaller blogs & get them more readers/ followers! When you receive the award, you post 11 random facts about yourself and answer 11 questions from the person who nominated y...

Christmas Lights

It’s funny having a baby and then trying to do things. I’ve noticed over the last year that I’ve gotten an I Can’t do that sort of attitude. We can’t do that because Aaron will cry and we’ll get cranky and so on. I’m really trying to work on that.  My anxiety out in public is much worse too. Now I have two people to protect not just myself. The library definitely changed how I look at places and I wish it hadn’t.  Sammy really wanted to go to a Christmas village downtown but I was too overwhelmed by all the logistics. So we compromised and went to one near us. It was so much fun! It was cold out but not too too bad. Aaron loves looking at the Christmas lights at our apartments, and he really loved these ones. It was so much more fun trying to look at these things through his eyes.  He was also fascinated by the mini Santa and Mrs. Clause at grandma’s house.  I’m so glad we went and can’t wait to go next year when he’s walking:)
