A Great Pi(Pie) Day

Two days ago, on Friday, March 14, 2014, it was Pi Day! The reason (you might guess) that March 14 of every year is Pi Day is because the common decimal approximation for Pi is 3.14, and March 14 can be written as 03/14. Pi is what you get when you divide the circumference of a given circle by its diameter. The circumference of a circle is the distance around the circle, or the perimeter of that circle. The diameter of a circle is the distance across the centerpoint of that circle, or the longest chord (a line segment that joins two points on a circle) of that circle. For any circle, c/d=Pi, c being the circumference, and d being the diameter. This is how much I memorized of Pi: 3.1415926535897932384626433832795028 8419716939937510582097494459230781. Pi is believed to have an infinite number of digits. We celebrated Pi at my school by having a Pi Contest, with 2 winners that memorized much more than just 3.14159265 35897932384626433832795028841971693997510582097494459230781. They trully memorized a whole lot. After that, we at PIES! Pies are circular in shape, and they went well with celebrating PI Day. This was probably the funniest thing in Pi Day. I ate delicious apple pie that I brought in with friends. We made circular plates with many digits of Pi around it. We also listened to a Pi song to help us memorize Pi. I really love music, so this was my favorite part. Overall, I had a great Pi Day, and my ultimate objective for next Pi Day is to memorize more than 3.141592653589793 23846264338327950288419716939937510582097494459230781, and defeat the winners of this year's Pi Contest.
