Today I've been put through 3 tests for physics, calculus, and English. I am just a tad upset that I got a B on one of them... oh well, that just means I have to practice it more! Expecting the weekend schedule I set up, it will be productive but somewhat difficult since I get distracted easily... but it is best to work through the weekend to have the week cleared out! Preparing my response to the discussion for speech and documents for my essay, needless to say I am worried about them but I will prevail! Hopefully... Keep Positive vibes~~~
Day 29 - day I officially stepped back into the grind ngl

Well...today was eventful.Struggling to write a thematic essay for Literature, juggling humanities and college algebra while doing so. Covering Beyond good and evil leads only to wonder more and more about the expanse complexity of the human mind and history. During the same time period, various ideas flew around in somewhat of a harmony until the breaking point of the twentieth century. Mind you, I was trying to write an essay during that time, so that was torture to do things like that. Afterwards, I realize I’m more forgetful than anything on this planet, forgot to turn in my homework which led me to run for my life to my teacher. By the way it’s her birthday today! Shout out to my calc prof! Love her, honestly. In literature, I failed a multiple choice exam but in calculus, I passed with flying colors! Which is new because since last year I haven’t been able to pick myself off the ground.
Well, as eventful as it was, it made me have new goals for the future, consisting of:
- taking more mc exams for literature so I don’t become trash
- focusing a bit more on literature
- reading and analyzing more profundly while short on time
Seeing my friends I guess made me glad I didn’t stay home, thanks for listening in✌️
1/4 of the way through!...spoken in ungodly hours in the night... AP European history is keeping me up and running! Keep positive vibes and if I don't see you: Good morning! Good evening! And Good night! -Truman show( an amazing movie!)

This is so cool!!!
Forensic Pathology is the art of examining bodies in order to determine the cause of death. This is usually done during cases where foul play is suspected. There are a lot of postmortem details that can give vital information about the events that took place leading up to the actual homicide. The contents of the stomach, for example, can tell medical examiners not only what the person ate, but where they might have gotten the food (a nearby diner, a specialty food store, etc.). If the food is still relatively intact then it’s obvious that the victim died only minutes after eating.
Marks on the body can indicate anything from domestic abuse to epileptic seizures. If there is blotchy hemorrhaging on the eye, it is safe to assume that the body was face down for some time after death. Similarly, petechial hemorrhaging can occur on the eyes when the airways of the throat are constricted, thus putting an increased amount of pressure on the head and causing capillaries in the eyes to break. An example of petechial hemorrhaging:
Other signs of asphyxia include a bluish skin tone, a broken larynx or windpipe, and marks around the throat that imply a strong grip or a thick piece of rope that might have been used during the strangulation.
Bite marks on bodies are examined by forensic odontologists (dentists) who try to match the shape of the bite marks to those of previous bodies or suspected killers. One of the most famous cases of this was for serial killer Ted Bundy who left these teeth marks on one of his victims:
Medical examiners can also tell you what kind of weapon was used. Was there powder on the body? How widely spread were the bullets and at what distance were the bullets shot? Through reconstructions they can even show the impact of things like meat cleavers and blunt objects against the human skull. They also examine the body to see if the person was sexually assaulted as this can help them discover the motivation for the crime.
Medical examiners are crucial in finding patterns among victims. Some serial killers have even been identified because of the keen eyes of these professionals performing autopsies behind closed doors. The work they do tells us the age of the victim, their weight, why they died, how they died, what they looked like, what kind of life they led, and so much more. Natural death is a slow process, like a spinning coin coming to a gentle tumble and then an eventual stillness. In cases of abrupt, unnatural deaths, it’s up to forensic pathologists to piece together what happened.
