I just went through it quickly and I noticed that there are way way wayyyyyyyyyyy too many words on a "slide". The point of Prezi/Powerpoint or a poster to go with your presentation is to aid the audience and help them glance at the main points you are talking about during that time. Not to overwhelm them with text. Friendly suggestion to have few key concepts on the Prezi screens instead of chunks of text (✿◠‿◠)
has anyone ever wondered why time goes faster when your having fun? I know there is a scientific reason for it but im too lazy to look it up XD
I did a backflip today into a foam pit ajd landed on my head 3 times.
A body of a missing girl that disappeared a few days ago was supposedly found, I'm Greene County, the county I live in, in Linton Indiana, the city I live near. It's creepy to know that. My area has never been active for homicide or anything like that. It was quite scary just hearing this news. This was not very far from my house at all
It is not as impressive as me almost reaching a year hah ... Even Brad does not have that much.
Kai-V, its cool though because its straight 2's.

I know about the two's, but I prefer the number five or the number eight. I suppose it is cool that he caught it exactly at twenty-two seconds.
1 month, 6 weeks, 10 days for me!
I'm officially a senior, now! Huzzah! This can only mean one thing. I can have a LIFE again! With the ACT and such out of the way, and me not planning on retaking it, I can just chill for now. Now, time for me to get back into the swing of things here.

I find myself unable to wait for freshman year of college to start. Narrowing down lists to apply to is HARD. Especially when you've only visited a few. The ones my school scheduled are all either expensive or simply not good schools. I've got my eye on a few in Pennsylvania (UPenn, William and Penn Uni., and possibly Amherst College), but I don't think I should bank on those 3. There's Mizzou, because of the auto-acceptance policy for people who score a 24 or higher on the ACT (if you're on the priority list), but that's a safety school.

But the most important thing is simple. I can't AFFORD the top-level schools. Thus, wherever I go, I will probably end up working on-campus during the summer. AND I'll need scholarships (Which I can get through debate). I got nominated for the Posse Scholarship, so I guess I'll cross my fingers and pray that I do well in my interview. If I get the full-ride scholarship, I'll go wherever it sends me to. Otherwise... I'd better get used to writing essays that matter. Hopefully, my AP English exam scores and my ACT score help me get a few scholarships.
Funnier if you know the situation that Rooster Teeth got into after a huge overreaction from the audience over "Connect the Hots".
Btw, if you don't watch their channel. Do it, bro. Just. DO IT.

I see someone has taken Oral Communications, haha! I loved that class, had it last year, only for a semester though. Basically flew through the class with zero problems.
Except the crystallization in a debate.
Screw.
Crystallizations.
I loved the class, I'm apparently very good as speaking in front of a crowd, despite not feeling that way, when I go up in front of a lot of people, I get really anxious, but often it works to my advantage to put some emotion into whatever I'm saying.
I. AM. FINNALY. DONE. WITH. 9TH. F**KING. GRADE. LOL Today we got report cards and I got academic achievement. Y no Honor Roll!? Lol
JUNIOR! Too proud of myself right now. Honestly, I'm really lazy when it comes to school work, but I still have the "smarts." I say this because MY AP ENGLISH TECHER CALLED MY HOUSE AND TOLD ME THAT I WAS AMONG HIS 6 BEST STUDENTS. This guy has even teaching for 16 years at a sophomore-university level. Just WOO! And I rocked that final 149/150 (He took a point off because nobody get perfects on his tests XD) But I'm a Junior now! Grin Time to get into plastics ;D
FRESHMAN! Although I've been out for about three weeks now, I'm still excited.

So for you guys that have been thought the hell I have heard of freshman year, how bad is it actually?!!
What should I do if I have a package coming in tomorrow that I need to sign?
I mean, I didn't really tell my mom about it, and I don't want them knocking on the door in the middle of dinner. WTF?
I tried to find the shipping before hand, and I even emailed them with my prefered shipping methods, but they still chose to have the signature for "Security Reasons."

Uncertain

I loved my Freshman year Smile You'll be fine as long as you aren't a social reject. *Looks down*
And for Takasu, my UPS people are pretty chill, they just say they need a sig. as confirmation, I think you'll be okay.

I'm more worried about my mom than the UPS.

lol

Don't want her asking "What did you get" and stuff like that. Tongue_out
You are twelve years old and that is probably her house, so she has a right to ask ...

I didn't know he was 12, oops XD Fair warning, you shoul ALWAYS tell your parents stuff you do. Good or bad, it builds a lot of trust.

A lot of people say Freshmen get tortured/harassed, but the truth of the matter is they don't. Behavior like that is generally unacceptable in school. And teachers/School Resource Officers try and keep an eye for stuff like that.
Depends. Most schools have minor hazing, & from what I've seen, upperclassmen are generally more critical & gossipy (at least with girls) about freshmen more than the other grades, but high school is never how it gets portrayed on TV. It's generally pretty chill, & people don't judge you as much as in middle school. I've enjoyed it so far.
Hm, my old high school is very different. Its perverted beyond words, and I was judged the second I set foot in the place.
In grammar school, I wasnt judged at all, and it was the best time of my life.
Hopefully my new high school will be better than my last one.
So today was my last day of school and I am actually pretty sad. I literally cried when I left. I really am going to miss everyone. It's a good thing I can go on Oovoo with my friends though.
