JAMAICA, QUEENS - When students are told to study for an AP Bio midterm early next week, it becomes chaotic. When it begins to snow, nothing (not even bio midterms) can stop students from a snow fight in people's drive ways.

" Screw AP Biology, its more fun throwing snow balls at my friend's faces rather than studying for an exam I know I won't do well on" Sharan said to the reporters.

It is said that the number 1 cause for students failure in school is Procrastination. Student are distracted by many things surrounding them. Such as Electronics,food and maybe even the weather. We had some of the student from Hillcrest Highschool interviewed regarding studying for AP Biology. Students were Sharanjit Saini, Durjayeta Lall, and Megan Persaud. " Well, we all decided to meet up at Karuna's house to have a study group, but who knew Karuna was such a awesome instant noodle cook" said Durjayeta Lall.

We asked Sharanjit and Megan on their views to study groups. "Well knowing that it might snow today, according tot he weather channel, I knew we girls would have been distracted by the snow." Sharanjit said to reporters. "Honestly I've always wanted to have a snowball fight like today".

" I tried to stop them from getting distracted from the snow outside, but soon I realized that snow wasn't just the cause of our distraction" Megan said. " I have to blame Karuna for this because of her iTunes playlist and her Asian drama addiction no one was able to pay attention to any work we tried to do".

In the end, it can be proved that no matter how hard students try to study there will always be some kind of distractions out there. As for friends studying together, according to these 4 students it can be proved that eating instant noodles, listening to music and watching dramas will not help students pass midterms.

Snowy Biology Day

Before the bell had rung, my bio teacher had reminded us about our midterm which would be given to us in a week or two. Since it is an AP class, I thought that I would be nice for once and ACTUALLY study for this midterm. My studying days went by and I figured that I couldn’t do this alone. *sighs*

So I gathered couple of my friends and decided to have a study group. It was a really cold day with cloudy skies, but I had no idea it was going to snow. To warm ourselves, I made instant noodles for everyone.

After warming up with hot 3 minute noodles, we studied for about 2 to 3 hours and got very “hyper”.

*note the bag of chips and iPods* OH YES WE WERE STUDYING!!! : )


It was either because of the Heresy’s chocolate I gave them or we just got really bored. I had given up on AP Bio as well, so then we watched couple of our favorite scenes from our favorite Asian dramas.

this is what I do most of the time when I'm home


Our party of 4 people moved to the outside world, where it had begun to snow.

Well when I think snow, I automatically for a snowball and hunt for my first victim. But this time I had the camera in my hand. Well the outcome is this:

*should have paid her for shoveling my drive way haha*


*Thank you Devi, Sharan, and Megan for not killing
me for the use of their embarrassing pictures*
