Me be homeschooled, (as everyone knows  ::)) and I've never known anything different. I am despairing at the moment with my PACEs. My mum wants me to catch up with my math. But I hate it, I just can't get it, no matter how long I stare at the page, I just can't do it!  :( And then my mum has to come help me, but we're always interrupted by my little brothers, who also need help.  :(
But I am very good at things like the Science, and Word Building. I just seem to get it.

Blurose, you're lucky. Rachel, I can sympathise; Just today I had to stop homework 'cause my baby brother stepped on a piece of glass.
Blood everywhere. (he's fine now, don't worry.)

I'd sympathize with y'all about the siblings thing, except I'm the youngest in my family. And I'm self-taught.

Rachel, I do get the math thing. I'm good at it, but I despise the subject. I'm more into learning about different world cultures.
Was anyone else on the old DAB forum, circa 2009? I was recently reminded of it, lol.

Bitterly jittery, and not very glittery.

The Skarzs

I'm doing geometry right now; It's pretty awesome.
What world culture(s) is/are your favorite to study, Blurose?

BlueRose

I love Asian cultures most, so far. I'd like to go to either Japan or Korea someday.

Geometry is hard. I can't get the hang of proofs....

You'll figure it out.
Or fail. Failing's not cool.

If I were to study culture, it'd probably be the Greeks and/or Romans.

It's hard to fail when you're self-taught. :P I can get everything else though.

Greek and Roman culture is cool too! I did several reports on the mythology of both cultures when I was in secondary school.

I like maths if I know what I'm doing, which I normally do.
They told me I was gullible. I believed them.

It is well known that 47% of statistics are made up on the spot.

I used to leave out half my sentances, but now I

fortunate duck. I stumble my way through Maths, and rarely get 100%  :(

I'd like to do that, I find things like that interesting. I like learning about different places, and such.
I also like learning practical things, like textiles, which I am very good at.  ;D 

The Skarzs

What are textiles, exactly?

aren't they like small carpet of something like that :P ???
I want the world of Tolkien,
The message of Lewis;
The adventure of Jacques,
And the heart of Milne.
But I want the originality of me.

Textiles are cool! I'm a handicrafts person too. Sorta. It's kinda like 'Oooh, what if I use my immense amounts of embroidery thread to do... Idunno, let's try this!'

I don't like to knit or crochet... Cross-stitch is pretty fun, though, and actually using a sewing machine doesn't bother me. I made myself a cloak in 7th grade.

Um, well, textiles is a craft. Felting, sewing, embroidery, printing, stuff like that is textiles.

Cool, my favorite type of textiles is felting. I especially like needle felting.
I made myself a huge bag, and I made a wall hanging, amongst other things. and I'm making a redwall quilt.  :)
