What else could that post possibly mean?

It could be a coded message revealing the location of the lost city of Atlantis, actually.

He may have gone into shock when he noticed we were suddenly on topic.

What I meant was that I kinda realized that already....

Sorry about that, I wasn't sure what you were trying to say.

This is where the IRC channel can be useful...

What grade are you in? I'm in grade 10 and have 7 projects on the go. The only reason I'm on here as much as I am is because I usually have it on in the background when I do internet research (and I like to procrastinate...).

Be patient. -_-

Hi-five, fellow Grade 10 with tons of projects!

I kinda haven't been on here for weeks due to summatives, foot surgery, getting a job, and now exams. But I have a computers exam tomorrow, and I have a 96 in Comp, so no real point in studying.

Not anymore, I've got only one left !!! (spit and dance)

My exams start on Wednesday (though the only one I really need to study for is history).

I've got a computers exam in two hours. Extremely easy. Binary/hexadecimal conversion, QBasic, VBasic and related things.

This is often my reaction to computers:

Seriously, I know how to load stuff, go on the internet and use movie maker and graphics programs. And that's about it.

I have English. Since we didn't really do any work this year, I basically just have to review Romeo and Juliet and To Kill a Mockingbird for an essay response. There's also a speech we'll have to answer questions on.

I had to review The Good Earth for my English final. And there are gonna be 100 questions for my biology final...so much memorization. >_<

Ouch.

The one thing I really hate about exams is the fact that I take my time with them, so by the time I'm done there's only a few people left (I don't think I've ever been the last one though). Once people start leaving I start getting panicky.

we dont get to leave >.< this makes the TWO HOUR maths exam very very boring.

We have to stay for the first hour and then are given another half hour after that. A teacher can decide whether or not to give you more time (which I usually need... my Englich exam today took me 2 hours).

We have to stay for the whole time, no exceptions. >< This is particularly painful when you have, say, a three hour Maths exam (week today. Argh). Extra time is awarded if English is your second language or you have a "learning difficulty", such as mild dyslexia, or just being plain stupid.

I did TKaM in Grade 9, and the Chrysalids this year. I love that book.

In my exams, you can leave after an hour, whether the exam is an hour and a half or three hours.

People with learning disabilities get extra time.

This being what I hate about my high school. Every other high school reads it in Grade 9, ours reads it in Grade 10. I know my school doesn't exactly the best academic reputation, but why are we treated like idiots?

I don't even really know why I'm still there.

I've never read the Chrysalids, but one of my friends (different city) read it for Grade 9 Academic. She says it was boring and it almost made her fail the course.

im convinced i have ADHD. if only the doctor would agree...its so unfair. just because some people cant sit still they are allowed to stop the clock and walk around while thinking of the answer *jealousy*

Or being incredibly bright, and not able to write a thing. I have that 3 hour paper too; try adding on up to another 45 minutes. Interestingly enough, whilst you have to stay for the full length of time set for the exam, you don't have to take extra time if you have it. You can leave any time once you're into the extra time boundary.
