Hi, I was thinking that after a while of making posts, It might be hard to find some of them so I've decided to make a table of contents. Just click the link of the post you want to see and you will be redirected there...

As I make posts, I will put them on the table of contents...

The Solution To The Locker Problem



There are 31 lockers open and 969 are shut. This is because the lockers that are open are perfect squares. They are perfect squares because they have an odd amount of factors, The amount of factors a number has corresponds to the amount of times a locker’s state is changed. As an example, 8’s factors are 1, 2, 4, and 8. That means that the first, second, fourth, and eighth student will touch locker 8. A perfect square is the only type of number with an odd amount of factors because you only list its square root as one number. As an example, 16's factors are, 1, 2, 4, 8, and 16. 4 is the square root of 16 so it is only listed once.

The reason that the lockers do not change once their number is passed is because after the 16th kid finishes the 16th locker, no other kid from then on will touch the 16th locker. that is why when you look at the diagram below that the first locker stays the same and the second locker stays the same after the second kid. This is the same all no matter how high your numbers reach.

There is also a pattern to this: One locker is open, then the next two are shut, one open, four shut, one open, six shut, one open, eight shut...

Also there is an Interactive diagram at the bottom of the page. You should check it out.

Secret Life of Bees Directors Cut


Mr. Gaston shot me a warning look."We got a guard on her at the hospital, and hes not letting anybody see her, so you go on back home. You understand?"
"Yes sir. I'm going home." Going home for supplies. I thought.
 "You do that," he said. "'cause if I hear you've been anywhere near that hospital, I'm calling your daddy again."

Of course, I then went to the hospital. Luckily for me, the guard was off flirting with the nurse long enough for me to get in, tell Rosaleen the plan, and sneak out with perfect timing.I heard him say,"I get off at six o'clock.". As soon as I left the hospital, Rosaleen shouted in a very good mockery of my voice, "Are you serious Rosaleen? You could have gotten killed!" The guard then immediately called Mr. Gaston and told him that I was in the hospital. He slammed the phone down on the receiver and ran towards our room only to find that It was only Rosaleen who made that noise. Luckily for me, I heard Mr. Gaston calling T-Ray. "Yes, she was caught in the hospital and deserves to be punished severely. He hung up and now, at 5:45, was my chance for freeing Rosaleen. Brother Gerald was parked right outside. He zoomed off towards my house.
"Why are we leaving?" He asked.
"I forgot something I needed to get to Rosaleen."
"Well please try to hurry. I'm late for a preaching."

The car came to a halt and I hurried and got my supplies. I got back in the car and got to the hospital one minute before six o'clock. Brother Gerald drove off into the distance. Unfortunately for me, T-Ray was still here. I had one minute until the guard left. I successfully sneaked past T-Ray and hid behind the Hospital waiting for the guard to leave. Sadly, another guard was coming to take his spot. I walked quietly in sink behind the incoming guard. I was surprised to see that the guard who was leaving was to busy flirting with the nurse that he did not notice me. The new guard came to an abrupt stop almost causing me to bump into him. "I'm in trouble now." I thought. He turned and told the guard to leave. "I'll leave when I want to!"He shouted back. They got into and argument and I sneaked into Rosaleen's room.

I waited until the new guard took his seat. I took my screwdriver and took the screws out of its hinges. On the count of three, Rosaleen and I kicked the door down and as planned, The guard was knocked out. The nurse left with the old guard and so we were home free. We darted off into the night. We were free.

Favorite Superhero



My Favorite heros are:


  1. Guybrush Threepwood a mighty pirate
  2. Peppe The headless zombie pirate racoon who eats sawdust
  3. The Prince of Persia


Guybrush Threepwood: A "mighty pirate" who isn't that smart, isn't that strong, and isn't that skillful with weapons. But things somehow always work out for him and he can make the best working makeshift things from practically anything. He is one of my favorites because he ends up accomplishing allmost anything from mugger fights, to world class log throwing competitions, to sneaking (AKA drugging) guard dogs. And finally, in the end of every game he does, he kill the Evil Zombie Pirate Lechuck.


Peppe The headless zombie pirate racoon who eats sawdust: A not so mighty pirate that has nothing to do with Guybrush threepwood. He doesnt really do anything heroic intentionally, but rather just pops in at the right places with the right timing. Don't try to search him up, because he is an imaginary character my friend made up. He is one of my favorite because he a very funny character and he is A HEADLESS ZOMBIE PIRATE RACOON! HE EATS SAWDUST! HOW IS THAT NOT AWESOME?!


The Prince of Persia: A prince in Babylon from long ago who is very athletic and would count as a mighty pirate if he was a pirate. He is more of a ninja than a pirate though. He is very stealthy, can run off walls, up walls, jump 10 feet off of walls, do flips off and on poles, and is very skillful with weapons. However he has horrible luck and nothing really works that well for him. He is one of my favorite because of his athletic skill, his weapon skill, and he has a conscience that tells him the exact opposite that a normal conscience would and his conscience is really sarcastic.




Here is a Picture of Guybrush Threepwood







Here is a Picture of the Prince of Persia







Sadly the only picture of Peppe is one my friend made and I have no access to it
