Gooooood afternoon on this Wednesday in December. There is at least one good thing about this Wednesday: 1 It's Hump Day - Almost the weekend. If you are like me (Or like most people that are most people) You will probably be binge watching this weekend and for the very reason that I am dreamy of the weekend, *BOOM!* random Netflix facts.          

Netflix started in 1997 in Scotts Valley, CA

Netflix reaches about 200 country's! 200! 

From the hours 9 PM to 12 PM Netflix makes up for 33% of downloading and streaming -  THAT'S A TON OF DOWNLOADING!

In 2009 when Netflix still delivered DVDs The Netflix warehouses where all hidden and disguised and so where the trucks that delivered the DVDS

Netflix workers get unlimited vacation days! Don't you want to work for Netflix now?

All Netflix shows and movies are subtitled because the  National Association for the Deaf filed a class-action lawsuit against them in 2010.

Well that was 5 super random facts about Netflix hope you enjoyed them. So tell us in the comments, what will you be binge watching this weekend? I just finished Binging on Stranger Things 2 and Your Lie in April so I'll need something new, but what do you watch? Have a great rest of your Wednesday. Hope you guys are glad I updated it ;)

Every day he wonders "Is today a good day to die?" and she crosses off the days till she can go off to college away from the place she lives. If you liked The Fault in Our Stars, you are very likely to like this one as well (And vise-versa) It's an international best-seller, good reads choice 2015 winner and soon to major motion picture, this book has an amazing story. As they save each other from their slow deaths of monotony. When they have to work on a project to discover Indiana they fall in love and discover more than they though they would. It is a beautiful story from anyone who is looking for a new book to read. I don't want to spoil it but I definatly recommend it! Be sure to check it out at the Tremonton Library! Just as soon as I return it πŸ˜‰

RAWR!

Whhhhhat a beautiful Wednesday! The last of school is approaching, who is ready for Summer? I know I am! The other day my teacher told us a really weird fact. Did you know that Tigers legs are so strong that they can stand even once they die?! That is so crazy! Tigers are becoming extinct and there  are now only 6 species of tigers, there used to be 9, and there are more tiger being held captive than in the wild. Tigers are a great species that needs to be kept alive! Find out how you can help at https://www.worldwildlife.org/ A new summer schedule is currently being worked out and hopefully I'll have it by Friday! Until then, have a wonderful rest of your day!

Guess the Location!

The past two weeks I hadn't been able to post (Problem is being fixed) ,but we will resume this week as normal 😁 Todays picture is of some pretty windows somewhere, who can guess the location?  We have another tropical Starburst that wants a new home, could you be the one?
This is a pretty easy one but seeing as no one seems to guess them, it seems appropriate. Now, who can guess it?
πŸ€”πŸ€”Where have I seen those windows before?πŸ€”πŸ€”

P.S. To all who had seen this before might have accidentally seen next weeks! Try looking for a pretty pink bench outsideπŸ˜‰

GONE by Michael Grant

Without so much as a *POOF* all grown-ups and everyone above the age 15, disappear. Completely. No parents. No teachers. No policemen or firefighters. No phones, internet or TV. No contact to anyone else outside of the sphere shape that appears around the town. Is there anyone out there? What starts out as a fun game, starts to turn dark as bullies begin to rule and people start to develop un-human-like powers. People start to take sides against others. Hunger threatens and time starts to run out.
'On your birthday, you disappear just like everyone else...' Rated at a 4.6/5 stars on Amazon, this is a great dystopian book series by Michael Grant. It is a 6 book series and GONE is only the beginning.

Can Plants Talk to Eachother?

Plants. All around us. So what do you think? Can these plants that are all around us talk to each other? Well, technically, the answer is yes. Have you ever seen those animals that lift their tails to warn the pack of danger? The plants are kinda like that. These plant are constantly producing chemical signals according to their environment, especially when under attack. When plants get damaged, by bugs or us humans, they send these signals either by air or through the soil to the rest of the plant so it can strengthen itself. Some plants can pick up on these signals and build up their immune system (Like when cold and flu season comes around and you stock up your house on vitamins and medicine). Even though it might be an accident to have other plants pick up these signals, they do. I found this very interesting and if you'd like to know more there is a TED ED video about it  
                                                                                           ----> TED ED <----
                                                                                    Have a wonderful Wednesday!
