Rather than spending most of today in class, like a normal student on a normal day, I spent most of today in the weight room right off the gym.
No, I wasn't lifting weights. I don't lift weights.
So, what was I doing in the weight room, if not lifting?
I was SAWING PEOPLE IN HALF! (Doing the illusion, of course - my friend did not ACTUALLY get sawed in half twenty times) It was rather fun. It was for the Physics Festival (which, as I learned this year, is for physics students, and they get graded on it).
See, the whole thing with the sawing in half thing (and the reason it was for physics and not something like magic class) is the volume of the box that the person is in. We had two people inside - one was the head, one was the feet, and they wore the same shoes.
Since the physics fair is usually themed (and I think we get graded on presentation as well), and this year's theme was "feats of strength, skill and magic," we all (except for the two in the box) dressed kind of like classic black magic presenters (kind of... I don't know how well we did) - black tights, dark shorts, white button-down shirts, black shoes, white gloves, and, of course, black top hats. It was kind of awesome. Of course, I had to wear my combat boots to kind of hide the fact that I was actually wearing black leggings (I only own one pair of tights, and they are blue and have hearts on them), but whatever.
It was fun.
YAY!
