Answer to the White Queen's Riddle

"The White Queen's Riddle"
It is easier to "dishcover" the riddle is about an oyster.

"The Walrus and the Carpenter"
It is ironic that the oysters thought they would be getting food to eat, but the Walrus and Carpenter end up eating them.

Love Simile

How do I love you? Do I really need to say?
My love for you is bright and obvious,
Like the shining sun in the day.
My love for you is constant, like water
During the pouring rain.
It is as pure and true as a diamond;
It is overflowing, like a waterfall.
But I'm sorry it's sometimes awkward,
Like a penguin trying to fly.
I really hope you know I mean well.
And never ask if my love for you would ever fade away?
Un-possible! That's how impossible it is, needless to say.

Newman Survey

What do you think must be made the element and principle of all education?

Participant #1 Jordan Shito- An easy answer would be real world experiences. That's a lame answer but it's the best I've got.

Participant #2 Mathew Esporas- Working hard.

Participant #3 Jonathan Neumann- A relationship with God.

Participant #4 Nathan Chun- Students must be willing to learn.

Participant #5 Crystal Soliven-  "The main principle of all education is probably reading and comprehension, because when a person reads something and understands it, it applies to life. And also learning something new would affect the way a person lives."
