We just now arrived at schooland we are sitting in thebus waiting area waiting forthe other students toarrive. This was so cool!You had a seat with your

name on it and when yousat down on it, headphonesdropped down to listen tothe music you like. Youdidnt have to listen towhat other people liked.

The lights faded and blacklights came on signaling forus to report to our classes.Whoa! How cool! Its timeto report to our classes.RAM didnt even have alighting system like

Techmentry.

Math class has now started withMiss Wiki. She seems reallynice. As she goes through

class expectations, she givesus a calculator number andthis is the calculator we are touse all year. If anything getsdamaged on the calculatorsshes going to charge us $50MHz I thought this was thecoolest calculator Id ever seenbefore. Miss Wiki doesnt havea phone in her room becauseshe put in a special request tohave them built into thecalculators. So, if I have to callmy mom, I can just use mycalculator. I just dial 9 and mycalculator will call out. Howawesome! Starting tomorrow,were going to learn how manynibbles are in a bit and howmany bits are in a byte. Thatshould be easy.

In orchestra, I play a non-traditional musicalinstrument. I play thefloppy disk keyboard. This

has to be my favoriteinstrument because thekeyboard loads newinformation every time Iplay a new song. I feel likeits a frenzy to learn how toplay it. My instrument iseasier to play than thescanner. My orchestraldirector has a plethora ofideas that will becomeabout in orchestra thisyear. Mr. Binary sure does

have a back-up plan foreverything.

Whew! The day is almost over. Im inPE. We run, jump, skip, and play.We just didnt do a lot in PE todaybecause the PE teacher Miss CD-ROM was sick. Tomorrow, we are

going to see who can run thefastest micro-processors. This ismy last class and I cant wait toget home and tell my parentsabout my first day at my newschool. I was very shy today butits okay. Ill make new friendstomorrow. Starting my first dayhere at Techmentry wasnt so badafter all. What was there to benervous about? Nothing becauseas you know, when youre the newkid in school, you dont fit in quitewell on the first day. Techmentryis pretty rad. Im waiting for theBlog to come back and get me. Iforgot to mention, in the driversmirror, there is a daily blog whichwe can read. How cool. It will bedifferent tomorrow. I like the cityof CSS better than the city ofHTML. Technology has changedfrom the time my dad went toschool, till now. Myhowtechnology has changed.

THE END!
