Aw, that is so sad! The only thing is that why would they sting you if they know that they are going to die? Why wouldnt they just fly away? Silly female honeybees...

    AP test scores are available online now, and my friend's post reminded me to check... I got a FIVE on my AP English test this year. That's the highest you can get! :D I'm ecstatic right now. It's nic

Remember, they're workers. Regardless of weither they sting you or not, they will die within 2 weeks. When they try to sting you, it's because they see you as a threat to the hive, and more importantly, the queen bee. So they sting you so you can get away from the hive, and the bee sacrifices itself for the sake of bee-manity.

 

Such a tragic story indeed...

I got my first bee sting last year. It's most ridiculous, the way that I got stung.

 

I had been stung by my sock!

 

That's crazy! It's pretty neat that you study botany though. Maybe I should study something that has field work involved... it's a good excuse to go places outside. Though I suppose some fieldwork is no fun at all.

 

I'm practically blind without my glasses on so I pretty much can't see the bottom even in the 3 foot clear ocean and yesterday I stepped on a crab, jellyfish, and giant clam shell.

 

Oh freaky! I love jellyfish in aquariums, but I think it would really freak me out if I saw one in the ocean where I was swimming. My boyfriend is afraid of dark water. Not being able to see the bottom freaks him out. This story would probably freak him out too (he's pretty blind without his glasses as well).

 

Is it true that bees die when they sting you? I have always wondered that...

 

Yep! I think when the stinger comes out, it pulls out some of their abdomen as well. I don't think they die right away... maybe a few hours later?

 

 

I've been stung by a bee once, so I'm not sure if I'm allergic or not. I was going rock climbing, so I wore a loose shirt. A bee got up my sleeve somehow and couldn't get back out, and voila! Bee sting! The stinger came out pretty easily though.

That is so sad! Thanks for clarifying. Poor little bees. :(

CAV the Marquarian Warrior beat me to it XD. It's the same as if a killer or something would break into a families house. The dad would probably fight the killer off, while the family escaped. Even if he knew he was going to die.

I see that happen all of the time in movies, especially war movies. I dont like war movies because they make me sad.

I hate animal killing movies. Like Marley and Me. That movie made me ball.

That movie was terrible! It was sad, but I just thought that it was a horrible movie. Ewwww what a waste of going to the movies.

I liked it. :/ I saw it at my house XD, so I didn't really spend any money.

Movies are the topic now? Yay! I went to the movies yesterday with mum and my friend Duckie. We saw a double feature at the drive-in theater: Prince of Persia (awesome action, no clue what happened) and Toy Story 3 (great movie). Have y'all seen them?

CAV the Marquarian Warrior beat me to it XD.

 

Please, just call me CAV.

 

Marley and Me was a very good movie, and yes my family cried when he died. But I liked it because of the moral lesson. Also because it was incredebly funny.

livvy: Prince of Persia was AMAZING! I love that movie. Great action. Did you know he did most of the stunts himself??? Wow.

 

CAV and Wartex: I didnt like it because it was so sappy.

Yeah, but it was one of the few GOOD sappy movies. Many of them suck, but M&M had something that other sappy movies didn't have, HUMOR.

 

Really? I dont know why, but I didnt really find the antics of Marley funny. Weird, right? I dont even own a dog that would make these antics real for me.

Please, just call me CAV.

I thought it was good :/ I cried because I thought of my dog. It was ubersad.

Oh you sappy boys. ;) Has anyone seen Valentines Day? I know it is a couple months old, but it was HILARIOUS! That had humor.

It is ok. And if one of them breaks up with her bf, then ask her out. Believe me, girls like forward guys! Unless she totally abhors you, then its different!

 

And watch it soon! I wanna see your reaction! :D

XD. Well maybe. I don't talk to her, or anything. Just seen her around, and thought she was pretty.

 

I'll probably watch it with my sister XD. She's usually the person I watch girly movies with XDD

Aww, I'm sorry Adis. But it's okay to be single! *is 17 and still hasn't had a boyfriend*

 

I've never seen Marley and Me, and from what y'all are saying, I probably shouldn't. My family cries easily.

I haven't had a girlfriend in like 3 years XD. But it's because I don't date unless i feel attracted to them.
