Yep, that's when it gets out of hand. For the record I like very physicaly demanding sports, i e, sprinting, long distance running...I also like boxing and judo.

Ah like chocolate milk, but zat'z bezide ze point.
NARDOLE; You are completely out of your mind!
DOCTOR: How is that news to anyone?

-Sometime later, the second mate was unexpectedly rescued by the subplot, which had been trailing a bit behind the boat (and the plot). The whole story moved along.

Everybody says they could not change from homeschool to public school and vice versa, but I think I'll manage it, since they're all VERY good children.

And I'm starting on Tuesday(I've got a blank here, is tuesday the one right after monday? I think so...).

I hate football full stop. I'll play it with my brothers but only if there's nothing else to do. I'm more of a rugby person though I've never joined a team. I only play it at home and watch the Six Nations.

QuoteI've never met a homeschooler, either. I often wonder what it is like, and I sometimes wish I could do it, but I enjoy being at a school.

it is boring! Especially when your teacher/mom has a business. And is always falling asleep during writing and History. and the math i am doing Life of Fred fractions makes you take a test twice a week but there is a upside for writing what mom will do is she'll read me and my brother a book over the course of a month and we fill in blanks punctuate and copy boring stuff like that but the book this month is Mossflower but my 13 year old brother hates Redwall how can anyone but i think i helped him a little in the hate department i spent hours talking about it so now her hates it me and my books  :-[ :-[ :-[ :-\ :-\
HOW CAN YOU HATE LIFE OF FRED??!! IT WAS THE BEST MATH EXPERIENCE I EVER HAD!! And I should know, 'cause now I'm stuck doing ACE math again. It stinks!

Wait, what do you mean by ACE maths?
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

A.C.E math. It stands for Accelerated Christian Education. You have these workbooks (known as PACEs) of about 50 pages, and you get 12 of them for a school year. It's not always a fun experience doing those. A.C.E also has English, Science, and other subjects, not just math. I use their English PACEs too - those aren't as bad.

Aaah. I do 'em. Yeah, some aren't too bad...

I do ACE as well. I find the little characters in them so annoying but I will not say what my sibling and I have said about them. Me and my brothers and sister are or have been homeschooled using ACE. *shudders* I just hate the books they make you read in the Literature PACES. *shudders again*

I have been home schooled forever and don't regret it!   :)

Tell me about it!  My siblings and I are always making fun of those little comic-book-style picture-story things in the PACEs!   ;D

I've done it, and vampire teeth and horns.
My sister went to a homeschoolers weekend thing once with a friend, there was a person in an ACE suit. She said it was very tempting it stab him with a pen or something.  ;) I love my family  :)

You mean he was dressed as Ace Virtueson, the character?

(Btw, when my mom was a teen she was homeschooled using A.C.E., and I don't know how she stood it!)

I know! The names are so cheesy!  ::) Ace Virtueson, Sandy McMercy, Tian le Joysong...
