Lots of Different Things

Sorry I haven't blogged in a DONKEYS age(for those of you who are confused,you should be) I've been waiting for a bunch of interesting things to happen. Lets just say my life right now is soooooooooooo boring I have to wait like(how long has it been?) 3 or 5 days to blog!
I'm very happy to say that...........I GOT POINT SHOES!!!!!!!!!!!! Of coarse over half of you already Know this because I barley have any readers,and no matter how many times I ask you to tell people about it you don't.(But of coarse this isn't the best blog ever and for those of you who like it,THANK YOUx 200 billion)
I saw the movie Australia on Wednesday. OMG IT WAS SOOOOOOOO GOOD!!!!!!(but very long) Even though it was long,it was so freaking suspenseful you couldn't relax! And I mean,come on Hugh Jackman??????? Who would say no?;) (all right! I know there are some people out there that disagree,but PLEASE don't throw me of a cliff!!!!!!!)
The dentist thought my teeth were gorgeous! I got a 94% on my teeth,and my brother got a 93%(hehehehehehehehe) I have 2 mouth sore on my tongue,which makes it difficult to talk,swallow,eat,and drink. I just came back from getting a pedicure(and get a manicure this week too!!!!!) My toes are blue(And I think I might have hurt one from my point shoes!!!!!)
hopefully I blog soon(and just MAYBE I'll blog about the last days of zoo camp)

TIRED

I AM TOO TIRED TO BLOG ABOUT ZOO CAMP!!!!! It involves thinking what you want to type! I don't wanna think right now! give me a a day at the maximum. I only had like,5 hrs of sleep......at the most.
I'm going to ganus grill to night! Love that place! When we watched Dumbo last night, I watched it from an adult prospective! It teaches kids great lessons!(sarcasm overzealous readers) Let the elephants do all the work. When your unhappy,get drunk until you see pink elephants! Lastly, in order to fit in(if you have big ears) go visit some high crows who smoke! They'll teach you how to use those ears as wings! Maybe you'll be accepted into the high- crows- who -smoke club! Oh how I love to watch kids movie when i get adult houmer!

Zoo camp:day 3

Toady we got to ride the monorail!!!!! The lady sounded funny and would say her sentences like this..........is a........o.....ka.......pi. THAT got annoying! We saw the otters and giraffes
We learned about the jobs photographer and educate. There are many types of photographers. Wild life,zoos,marine life,wedding pictures,family pictures,etc. The one that talked to us was obviously a zoo photographer. There are a couple main points to making a good picture.
  • make it look like the animal is in the wild,not in the zoo
  • lighting
  • animal is either looking at you,or doing something interesting

What I mean when I say bullet point number 1,is that there is no glass,wire mesh,or buildings in the background. The lighting is important because if it's in the afternoon the sun is blaring up there in the sky. That makes the picture look harsh. The most important thing in a animal,zoo animal,or marine life photographer is.....patience!!!!

Photographer

  • education is not needed,but encouraged
  • makes around 40,000 a year
  • LOTS OF PATIENCE!!!!!!!!!!!:)

A educator,is usually the people who run/work a the summer camps,and/or educate the people about animals. They can work part time or full time.

Educator

  • if you work at a big city zoo, you get about $40,000 a year,small city zoos $28,000 a year
  • need at least a bachelors degree
  • need to love kids!!!!!

You can volunteer to be a JCC(Junior camp consular) to get volunteer hours. It also looks good for collages,you have to bee 14 or older to start!

So what else did we do today? We got to pet an alligator! Now, I know what you might be thinking. One of my camp consulars,lets say Tom, knocking out a 18 foot long alligator,and somehow managing to tame it. We ,the campers, start petting it,or maybe even riding it!(cough overzealous readers cough cough) Well,no. We pet a- not- even- 1 year old baby alligator!

I'm not writing tomorrow,Were having a over-night at the zoo!

Zoo camp:day 2

So today in zoo camp we went to see the gorillas,the alligators,and the penguins. We were supposed to ride the Montreal,but it broke down. We got to see Chile, a Parrot from South America(hahahahaha! get it????? Chile from South America!!!!hehehe-oh whatever)

We learned about the job researches. Another name for them are zoologist. They study the behaviors of certain animals,like pacing. If an animal is pacing that usually mean they are stressed. Not all the time,but mostly. To measure stress level in humans,you can take blood from yourself. However you can't really do that to an animal,so you have to get it from.......urine!!! Or even better.......poop!!! We went to go do some 'research' on the elephants: Jenny and Gypsy. We would watch what they would do and record it.(in the heat of the 2:00 sun) Then we analyzed are data. That consisted of A LOT of math,and if math is something you'd rather die than do(like me) than a zoologist should not be on your "things I want to be when I grow up" list. Here are some things about zoologists:
  • need a masters or bachelors degree in biology
  • need to be good at math
  • get $45,000 or more a year(yes that can mean a million)

The penguins are African penguins that can live in heat for those of you who were wondering. At our zoo we have 4 gorillas 2 female 2 male........or it might be only 1 male. There is one male named Patrick who has a past of banging on the glass,freaking out people who are there. There are a lot of alligators,but we only saw 3. They do have a albino alligator!

I'll try to write more tomorrow!

Zoo camp:day 1

Hey everyone! So sorry I haven't blogged in a while,but I've been busy!
So this week I'm going to a day-zoo camp. Today,it started pouring down rain right before we left. Of coarse my friend's mom said "Oh it will only rain for 5 minutes!" Guess what? It was pouring down rain by the time we got there,and it had been like 20 minutes!!!!!!
I was supposed to go with two other people,bu one of them ditched us!!!!!!!! Too bad for them! We walked up the steep hill today to go see the cheetahs,rhino's,and Llamas!(and other animals too,its just I can't remember them all.....)
We got to pet a armadillo,and see but not pet a kincacoo(I have no idea how to spell that). A Kincacoo is a cross between an animal that starts with a K(don't remember whats it's called) and another animal that i don't remember. I know,I really paid attention;) (that was sarcasm overzealous readers)
We learned the difference between a Vet and a Vet Tec,that I am proud to say remember!


Vet:
  • Get $60,,00 plus a year
  • have to go to 8yrs of school(collage)
  • Get to give shots,preform surgery,and write prescriptions
  • Can open their on business
  • Are animal doctors

Vet Technician(or Tec)

  • Get $25,000-$50,000 a year
  • have to go to 4 years of school(collage)
  • Don't get to perform all the stuff i said on the third bullet point of vet
  • Can't open their own business
  • Are animal nurses

So if you want to be one of those jobs when you grow up,there is just some little information!

Will try to write tomorrow!
