I hate introducing myself, but I really should be more social around here.
Anyway, hello all. :D I'm Bubblegum, you may call me Bubble or Bubbly or whatever creative nicknames you can come up with.

Anyway. <Jumps headfirst into conversation>
Clair (may I call you Clair?), I'm so sorry you were hacked. That sucks. I can donate a little gold if you want, to make your temporary savings a little easier. :]

Hello! I feel welcomed. Thank you. <3

I am well. :]
Good luck on your AP exams!
I don't have to take them yet, and I'm not looking forward to taking them when I get there, but I do plan on taking them. I've managed to get away with never studying for a test and getting straight-A's thus far, though that "record" will probably be slaughtered by Chem next year. Oof.
Speaking of testing, we just finished standardized testing. Oddly enough, everyone I know seems to gripe about those. Most of the school day spent doing nothing + no homework + no classwork + really easy test = bad? That's not how I learned math.

Nah, I'm a freshman, and we can't take PSAT until sophomore year.
We have this state standardized test and it's the easiest thing in the universe. Literally, the hardest part of the day we took the test was occupying myself for the three hours that other people were taking to finish. (I can only sleep on my desk for so long)
Then again, I've always been relatively good at math, but one should be able to do that test with their hands tied behind their backs if they were remotely awake during Algebra.

I'm taking Algebra II and Chemistry next year, and I expect those to be devilishly evil (are they as hard as people make them out to be?)
I also have to go to summer school and take Geometry, because I was in Algebra I and Biology this year and the state won't let me take Geometry and Chemistry simultaneously.
And I don't want to take Life Science, which is my other option for getting my courses on-level with each other. The sound of it seems as though it's insulting my intelligence. D:

Ah. Public school, we have to take all these tests. It's great.
I brought The Perks Of Being A Wallflower to the test, but I finished long before we could leave, so I was left with nothing to do.

The Chemistry teacher (who is also my testing advisor for some reason; I'm not sure why they'd assign sophomore/junior teachers to freshman testing classes, it just makes testing more intimidating to have a teacher you don't know in the room) did say it was challenging, especially if we had struggled with the Chemistry half of IPC. I didn't, though, I loved that half of the course.

I took Biology this year. And one thing I've learned is that the Bio teacher at my school has a life, and never wants to sit around grading our homework. He does give a lot of quizzes, though.
My Bio teacher also loves me all too much and tells me to take AP Biology at every given opportunity. >_> At my school, we generally have that and AP Physics to take in senior year if we started off with Biology, and I had trouble with the Physics half of IPC; I don't want to think about AP Physics. Might be my only choice.
Life Science, though, is just a pushover course that some people take to get their math and science courses in alignment. Instead, I'm going to toss half my summer out the window and get to the higher level courses. Oi.

Anna has testing on Tuesday. ._. Anna is not looking forward to it. First of all, its stressful. Second of all, Anna somehow manages to finish early, every time. And there's only so many times Anna can check over her work without dying.

@ Ramp - Thank you!

@ Min - D8; I'm talking about the state testing.

Good evening all!

@ Ramp - I don't know what they're called. ._.;
Same here.

@ Tetsu - <3 We missed you.

@ Wendy - Speaking of studying, I really should do that soon. >.>;

@ Blond - Evening.
