Hello peeps! (Wait, why did I just type that? I never say "peeps"). Anyway, I know I haven't been online in a couple of weeks, I'm superbusy (I've already had to write three essays in Social Studies)! Also, random wacky fact: tardigrades (my favorite animals) can survive almost ANYTHING; extreme temperatures, being crushed underfoot, etc. They do this by going into a state called cryptobiosis, where they are extremely dehydrated and their bodies kind of shrivel up. This might sound gross, but it's actually pretty cool!

LOL! I don't usually say "peeps" either! 😂 Oh, wow! That's cool about tardigrades! (Except for the whole shriveled up part! 🤢)
