Okay so I'll start with earth worms. lol okay so today in Bio we got to study Earth Worms yipee (I wish) like OMG it was sooooooo gross we had to touch them. First off there was a table of four. And two people worked together at the table. So I ended up working with a friend (Tiffany). So everyone was assigned on worm, peachtree dish, a piece of construction paper, and microscope thingy per groups of two. Then four the whole group of four we had to share a flash light, a ruler and some weight meausing thingy. So I go up to get the suplies for me and Tiffany and the first thing I have to do is touch the worm!!! It was sooooo gross. Like OMG and of course I had to pick the squirmest worm GRRRRRR. So like we get back to the table and the worm has already almost crawlen out of the dish and onto the floor. It was disgusting. Justin was really getting a laugh out of me and Tiffany trying to keep the stupid thing on the table. Then at one point he/she (Worms are both *Something i learned today*) was completely still. It didn't move. We acctually thought it was dead until I picked up the dish to put it under the microscope thingy. Then like OMG it started to pee or something. All I know is a liquid came out of its end. EWWWWW I was so sicked out then I had to touch it. So first we had to observe it, draw it, and label the head, end, and reproduction collar (Which me and Tiffany were terrified to touch *I learned that they mate w/ the collar thingy and then it slides off into the dirt and the wormies are born. Now i know the circle of life lol*) so we did that. Then we had to take measurements. We had to see how long, wide, and tall it was (Which finding all that is really hard since the worm wouldn't stay still) then the next measurement was its weight. Like our worm was 2.7 grams and the other people at our table (Laura and Brittany) was only like 1.something. lol. Then we had to do another type of observation. We put the worm back in the dish and put the paper over it. Then the teacher turned out the lights for 3 minutes. When the three minutes were over we had to half way uncover the worm and shine the flashlight on it and see how it reacted. Like i don't really know how to describe it. First it's front have kinda came up then it started to talk its bottom half and squirm its way out of the paper. It was strange. Then after that Tiffany took the worm back while I cleaned up the table. It was gross! I never need to touch another worm.
Now to Its A Small World. So we were told there would be a suprise at lunch today and you needed to bring change if you wanted. So the suprise was that they played the Its A Small World song. Over and over and over and over all lunch long. And they will continue to do this until they raise $750. See most people are saying make it stop. But me and my friend Cady who are complete physco's are sitting there singing and dancing along. Although it is hard to hear because of everyone talking. Now the only bad thing about hearing Its A Small World over and over again is that its like one of those songs that like once you hear it once its stuck in your head and you go to class and try to concentrate on a stupid earth worm meanwhile your head is saying "Its a small world after all. Its a small world after all. Its a small world after all. Its a small small world" Over and over again lol. I wonder if they will play the same song tomorrow or if they will play a new song Hmmmmmm well I just thought I'd say hi and let ya'll know what was goin on bye

OMG I like so totally hated the worm thing too when I had to do it in high school.
I did better with them in a college Psych class learning about conditioning, but it was probably because wasn't cool to squeal like a little girl in a college class.
Times have changed. We only had to touch worms when we disected them and by then they were already dead. They were already dead? Right.
YAY I'm not alone on hating the worms
Nope grandma they were alive and kicking :(
