summer studying challenge, 21st july: what is the best holiday you’ve been on?

definitely the first time i went on a holiday to a warm country, to menorca in 2017 with my family.

today was spent colouring in a gbbo colouring book, watching arrested development, and coding! i’m learning python2 using codecademy and i’m trying some of the python challenges. (i completed level 1 today and was SO excited by it.)

i was very proud of that drawing please appreciate the bowl.

sunday 13 october

hi! long time no see, tumblr. i took a break for the first month or so of school because there was so much to do, including my final silver dofe expedition, but now it’s the break and i’m spending the time off relaxing and catching up on everything.

those who have done gold duke of edinburgh- is it worth it? i’m really questioning whether to do it, as this is a big year for me and on top of 5 highers i’m doing grade 7 violin so i’m not convinced i could take it on and do well in everything. please let me know if you did it and think it’s actually worth it in the long run lol :)

physics electricity notes

some pressure notes (i find it deeply amusing that there’s charles’ law and boyle’s law because of the character charles boyle in b99) (me and my friends often write each other notes on our books and recently our humour mostly involves brexit and theresa may- in retaliation to this i wrote brexit and drew a heart around it on her hand oops)

Rating LHC detector logos & names

CERN's Large Hadron Collider (LHC) has 4 crossing-point detectors: ALICE, ATLAS, CMS, and LHCb. This is a totally accurate 100% true absolutely not biased summary of how well they rank in name and logo

ALICE: A Large Ion Collider Experiment

Name: 5/5 (we love a woman in STEM, plus it's a fairly easy and informative acronym)

Logo: 3/5 (simple, cool colours but does look slightly evil, and the fact the lines aren't the same length upsets me)

TOTAL: 8/10

ATLAS: A Toroidal LHC ApparatuS

Name: 3/5 (loving the mythology name, very cool. However, a point has to be deducted from having two letters in the acorynm from 'Apparatus', especially as one is from the end of the word. Another point is deducted from using an acronym in your acronym)

Logo: 5/5 (perfect, and apparently it's also modelled on an actual physicist from the experiment)

TOTAL: 8/10

CMS: Compact Muon Solenoid

Name: 1/5 (it's so boring! You get 1 point for being informative)

Logo: 1/5 (it looks like a child designed it. Where's the pizzazz? I know those are meant to be muon tracks but they really do look like tentacles)

TOTAL: 2/10

LHCb: LHC-beauty

Name: 2/5 (Yes okay it's not really any better than CMS', but the fact it has LHC in the name makes it feel very Important™. The beauty is from the fact its doing bottom quark physics, and bottom quarks are also called beauty quarks and I just think that's neat)

Logo: 2/5 (A Basic Bitch of a logo, though it gets 1 redemption point for the red line suggesting CP violation, which is physicsy and cool)

TOTAL: 4/10
