Chameleon funerals and field trips

Everyone knows about my chameleon right? Well we had his funeral yesterday. Yep, that's right, he's dead. How did he die? Well, he had a calcium deficiency, which was just what the guy we got it from warned us about. We kept forgetting to dusk his crickets with calcium powder and the UVB light that we had disappeared. Weird isn't it? So anyway my mom got me and my brother out from school early so that we could have a chameleon funeral for Lenny. Then my mom rushed off to work.

Today we had a field trip!! We went to the Roper Mountain Science Center. It was a lot of fun. Fist we went into this theater type room and got to watch a light show. A lot of students got to volunteer and help out the scientist lady who was demonstrating different things you can do with electricity, light, and electromagnets. We got to see purple lightning and one of the students at my school volunteered to catch a balloon on fire. There was a match on top of the stick and there was a special gas in the balloon that made it explode. After if BOOMED and flames went up she fell onto the floor. It was funny and the explosion wasn't that bad so don't worry. Nobody got hurt.
After that we went to the Planetarium and got to look at the stars. We also got to watch a program about black holes. Then we go to learn how to find our way back to civilization if our teachers ditched us in the woods... hehe:3

Then we got to Golden Coral and gorged ourselves with food. On the way back someone spit outside the window and it landed on someone's car. We all know it was a boy because all the boys were on one side of the bus, and all the girls on the other. The car was on the boy's side. It once again, made my school look bad... Oh well, at least I'M doing what I'm supposed to. We headed back to school, all buzzed from stuffing ourselves with sweets. It was fun, and I'm glad I was able to go...

BYE-BYE!!! ^_____^
