tOO, Pzar, and lilboy might understand why I go to such lengths to get away from my family. Spend 5 min. with my mom and you will cry. Then, spend 2 min. with my twin sisters and you will be desperate for some arsenic. I’m not kidding.
...btw I was homeschooled for like 5 years. K-2 and 6-7 were about 5 different public schools, 4 was a Christian private school, and I skipped 11-12 to do college.
lol kinda sounds like I was a drop-out, but actually I was top of the class in every subject when I was in public school last time.
Depending on the type of homeschooling books you have, homeschoolers are somewhere between 1-2 years more advanced than the same grade public students.
Last standardized test I took I got higher than:
99.5% of the nation for math
98.5% of the nation for grammer (I don’t show it on CC)
98.5% of the nation for reading

In fact, public schools love to have homeschoolers in their districts. It was proven that most homeschoolers will actually increase the average standardized test scores for the school district. I moved out of one school district to the one adjacent to it just recently, and some people were not too happy about it. LOL |

Heh, all families are different Hazael, and some more ’different’ than others. But my family has always been a blessing to me even though I see quite a bit differently than my parents. However, I’m more than ready to get out o’ the house this fall!  |

| It was hard because I would be able to do Saxaphone if I were In Pub. but since I am not I do not get snow days off, and sometimes I do not get a break from the start at 8:15 till 12:00. Downsides |

Spammers really are amazing creatures. You can learn all there is to know about their ways in a month. And yet, after a hundred years, they can still surprise you. |

I am also a homeschooled freshman.
My family can be nice but I have 2 younger brothers who have their moments. 
I wonder why so many LOTR TCG player seem to be homeschooled.
I know at least 12 LOTR TCG players and collectors who are homeschooled and only one who isn’t.  |
