march break

Happy March Break/Spring Break/whatever you call it.


Hope everyone is having a wonderful break! No school however there is work. Sorry for those who work, maybe this is make your day a little better.


First things first as this is a week of everyones life where there's either lots of relaxation (especially if you are a student) or some stress (especially if you are a parent [your kids are at home all week]). This week is to give students a break from school but for some reason some teachers assign homework. If you had homework we feel sorry for you. We can try to help you if you tweet us. *wink wink nudge nudge* We aren't sure if we can answer all your questions but we can give it a try. We don't know where March Break came from but potatoes celebrate this week by actually marching around and having a big festival. They celebreate two important days, which will be explained in the following paragraphs.







The first fesitval is daylight savings. On this day the clock goes forward one hour. Younger potatoes see this as a form of time travelling and therefore there is a whole festival for the younger potatoes that is time travel themed. As for the older potatoes it is a time that they get wiser. They skip a whole hour therefore regaining all the knowledge they forgot before. They see past memories that were forgotten and remember facts that they learned a while back and couldn't remember them. They celebrate by watching a screen in private that shows them their memories and then get hooked up to a device that refills their mind with the facts they had forgotten.


The second festival is PI DAY. It just happens that we are blobbing on Pi day, so HAPPY PI DAY! If you can't figure out how is today pi day well its the 3rd month and 14th day, therefore 3.14 which is pi in mathematics. If anyone has a tumblr they might have
seen many math puns. (We shall include some for your entertainment. Dont judge there are some funny ones.) Share your favourites with us, we love some good puns.






We were going to attach a few photos but couldn't decide which we wanted so here's a few links to math puns:

As this week comes to an end don't forget that it's almost St.Patricks Day! It is also another celebration that potatoes have. They go around painting the farm green and having a green paint fight. Everything you can imagine is done on this day in celebration of their Irish Potato family members. Remember to wear green or else you will be pinched. GOOD LUCK & STAY SAFE!!
