Lexi's+Bio+Page

 1/20/09 This is pretty legit.   So, I'm guessing I'm the first student to create a page on Braun's Wiki.


 Haha, I beat all of you. It is now 2:35 p.m. on January 20th, 2009. As a result of the date, I was denied the abil ity to attend 7th period biology today, and was instead directed to the lecture hall to take part in the celebratory inauguration of Barack Obama through a Macintosh computer and an overhead screen. Therefore, I am one day less of knowledge pertaining to protein synthesis and creating this page is my form of biological activity for today.

I'm really not at all surprised that I'm having a good time with this right now. (: I've decided to set some time aside to create a page that will, hopefully, be of use to someone other than myself. I've been working on a study guide for the midterm next week, and it's turning out to be pretty flipping awesome. I have attached to this first entry what I am done with so far. If anyone gets a chance to look at it (maybe even correct it, though I highly doubt it needs any form of revise), it would make my day.  I'll also post any biology-related news/magazine articles that I may discover and find significantly interesting.



THIS IS COOL.
 [|Marine Carbon Cycle] Article on fish guts right there.


Wow, I left my bio binder in my locker, and I was really looking forward to working on the study guide. I think the last thing I added was diffusion/osmosis. I'm not entirely sure, though. I still have to do cellular respiration, mitosis/meiosis, genetics, DNA, protein synthesis...

Hopefully I'll be done with it by Thursday this week.

1/21/09 I'm not completely done with the study guide yet, but I have covered everything up to half of photosynthesis (rushing out to soccer now, hopefully I'll be able to work on it some more when I get back).

Hi, Maxine. (:

Biology midterm study guide as of today:

I would also like to make a point that I would really appreciate if everyone would refrain from editing my page.

Okay, awesome. I would say I'm completely on track of things, considering I haven't gotten a chance to work on my study guide for three or four days, and the midterm being in a little over five.

Either that, or I'm just hopelessly lazy.

That sounds about right... Oh yeah, one week from today is Superbowl XLIII (it also just happens to be on my birthday this year). Legit.

- 1/27/09 Today was the English midterm (which, I must say, was a flipping breeze). So, I had much time to myself today. Given all this time and having the amazing quality of lacking a life, I spent my day watching all three of the Jurassic Park movies.

Just wanted to let everyone know that velociraptors are prob ably the coolest living things that have ever walked the earth.

I want one as a pet.



You have to admit that they're definitely cooler than you.

Raptor season is here.  [|This is funny.]

Forget the study guide. I'm a total failure and decided to procrastinate like crazy, and I haven't really bee n excelling in the studying department this week (unless you call watching the three Lord of The Rings movies in one day "studying"). Laugh, I don't care.

Nice bow, you girl. You need a sword, man. Aragorn has one.

So, the midterm is tomorrow, and I'm stuck with reading past notes. Not exactly what I planned, considering I had expected to have been completely finished with an amazing study guide by at least yesterday...

Oh, by the way. SOMEONE was wondering what the difference between an African and European swallow was. Here it is.

Some more raptor stuff. [|(:]

NAKED MOLE RAT.
