watching anime is WAY better than studying. so is being on here. as long as it's not studying, i want to be doing it right now
Monday, 19-Jan-15 01:44:47 UTC from web-
@bakarainbowdash I have 4 upcoming exams and should be studying, but here I am too :D
Monday, 19-Jan-15 01:45:28 UTC from web-
@northernnarwhal the worst is studying for math. i hate it
Monday, 19-Jan-15 01:46:27 UTC from web-
@bakarainbowdash Oh yeah, I have my Advanced Functions exam this Wednesday. It's gonna be hell.
Monday, 19-Jan-15 01:46:53 UTC from web-
@northernnarwhal i have long-comp MCAS on thursday. 6 and a half hours of sitting in the same seat in scilence writing a story on a prompt they give you. it's gonna be the worst thing ever
Monday, 19-Jan-15 01:48:35 UTC from web-
@bakarainbowdash Oh god that's brutal. I'm lucky, all my exams are ~3 hours each then I go home.
Monday, 19-Jan-15 01:52:19 UTC from web-
@northernnarwhal long comp is the WORST. the first time you take it is in 4th grade then every three years. all MCAS testing is all day. if your not done by the time the bell rings, to bad for you
Monday, 19-Jan-15 01:54:25 UTC from web-
@bakarainbowdash I really dislike bureaucracy but I ESPECIALLY hate standardized testing.
Monday, 19-Jan-15 01:55:38 UTC from web-
@northernnarwhal me to. MCAS is the massachusetts one and all grades from 3rd grade up do at least 3 different subjects every year in the spring. its awful
Monday, 19-Jan-15 01:57:27 UTC from web-
@bakarainbowdash You're from Massachusetts? Ahh, they don't have MCAS here but I assumed what they were based on how you were talking about them.
Monday, 19-Jan-15 01:58:12 UTC from web-
@northernnarwhal yeah MCAS srands for Massachusetts Comprehensive Assesment System. or as i call it Massachusetts Completely Awful System
Monday, 19-Jan-15 02:00:34 UTC from web-
@bakarainbowdash I'm from Ontario, Canada, and we had these standardized maths tests when I was younger called EQAO and everyone would always call them "Evil Questions Attacking Ontario". I don't even remember what the acronym actually stood for.
Monday, 19-Jan-15 02:01:50 UTC from web-
@northernnarwhal I live in Ontario too haha
Monday, 19-Jan-15 02:02:57 UTC from web-
@awesam17 Oh cool whereabouts in Ontario? I'm in Mississauga.
Monday, 19-Jan-15 02:03:17 UTC from web-
@northernnarwhal Kingston. Its a massive province.
Monday, 19-Jan-15 02:03:49 UTC from web-
@awesam17 It's a massive country man, but yeah. I've been to Kingston before, it's alright.
Monday, 19-Jan-15 02:05:08 UTC from web-
@northernnarwhal Its ok. im hoping we don't get posted to Belgium this summer so I can go to queens.
Monday, 19-Jan-15 02:06:51 UTC from web-
@awesam17 Like, Queens University?

@northernnarwhal thank god that this is my last year of long comp but i still have mat, reading comp, and science technology and engineering to look forward to
Monday, 19-Jan-15 02:03:25 UTC from web-
@bakarainbowdash My exams this semester are just Advanced Functions (which is basically high level maths), Philosophy, Astronomy, and Creative Writing.
Monday, 19-Jan-15 02:04:48 UTC from web-
@northernnarwhal i would give ANYTHING for them to put creative writing back into the curriculum.
Monday, 19-Jan-15 02:05:52 UTC from web-
@bakarainbowdash I've enjoyed the course throughout the semester, though my teacher is less than stellar.
Monday, 19-Jan-15 02:07:00 UTC from web-
@northernnarwhal they don't even offfer it at my school anymore. it's awful
Monday, 19-Jan-15 02:07:51 UTC from web-
@bakarainbowdash Luckily I go to a sort of arts school so it's the kind of thing it would have.
Monday, 19-Jan-15 02:09:41 UTC from web-
@northernnarwhal i just go to the towns only public highschool. it's the third largest in MA.
Monday, 19-Jan-15 02:10:54 UTC from web-
@bakarainbowdash How many students there? Mine's a bit over 1000.
Monday, 19-Jan-15 02:13:09 UTC from web-
@northernnarwhal there are about 630 in my grade and i'm not really sure about the whole school
Monday, 19-Jan-15 02:14:00 UTC from web-
@bakarainbowdash Yeah, when I said a bit over 1000 I meant my whole school. It's pretty small.
Monday, 19-Jan-15 02:14:31 UTC from web-
@northernnarwhal it's the only public highschool in the town and there are 8 elementary schools so alot of families with young kids move here so alot of kids come through the school system. my class is the biggest to come through since 1980
Monday, 19-Jan-15 02:16:58 UTC from web-
@bakarainbowdash What's interesting about my school is most of its students are actually outside its district and are just going there because of its arts programs.
Monday, 19-Jan-15 02:18:54 UTC from web-
@northernnarwhal yeah. the only reason people go to my school is because they have to if they were in the public school system
Monday, 19-Jan-15 02:19:58 UTC from web-
@bakarainbowdash Do you at least like your school or does it suck?
Monday, 19-Jan-15 02:21:11 UTC from web-
@northernnarwhal i like it fine. the teachers are nice and they do offer some cool stuff like the ACE program i got accepted into. i don't adore it though and i'm totally sure there are way better schools
Monday, 19-Jan-15 02:22:48 UTC from web-
@bakarainbowdash I feel I'm kind of the same. I wouldn't have the opportunities to pursue myself musically as much as I do if I went to a different school but mine's not without its flaws.
Monday, 19-Jan-15 02:24:21 UTC from web-
@northernnarwhal that is exactly the same or me. i wouldn't have the best tech ed and engineering program in the state if i went to another school but i also wouldn't have to take latin and alot of other stuff so yeah
Monday, 19-Jan-15 02:26:44 UTC from web-
@bakarainbowdash Is that what you plan on going into after high school? Engineering?
Monday, 19-Jan-15 02:27:27 UTC from web-
@northernnarwhal i would like to, yes. it is one of the rare classes that intrests me and i find i actually understand a lot of it and enjoy it. it is also a good career to persue in terms of getting a job so i wuld love to go into that field
Monday, 19-Jan-15 02:29:11 UTC from web-
@bakarainbowdash I have a few ideas in mind as to where I'm going but I'm planning on taking a year off to work some more and make some money before heading off to university or college.
Monday, 19-Jan-15 02:29:56 UTC from web-
@northernnarwhal i still have 2 years to go before i graduate so i haven't really thoght hard about it but i think i may take a year off to.
Monday, 19-Jan-15 02:31:24 UTC from web-
@bakarainbowdash Ahh, I'm in my last year of high school right now.
Monday, 19-Jan-15 02:32:34 UTC from web-
@northernnarwhal oh woe is me! i still have to suffer 2 more years! ahhhhhhhh!
Monday, 19-Jan-15 02:33:37 UTC from web-

Monday, 19-Jan-15 02:36:24 UTC from web-
@bakarainbowdash it's not stupid, it's fantastic
Monday, 19-Jan-15 02:36:38 UTC from web-
@yodelerty again i say, i really like that show. it's so funny BECAUSE the characters do stupid stuff
Monday, 19-Jan-15 02:38:22 UTC from web-

@bakarainbowdash articulate expression should never be taken out of a curriculum. Its one of a human's most important and admirable skills.
Monday, 19-Jan-15 02:07:35 UTC from web-
@awesam17 apparently not as important as mandarin chinese according to the superintendent
Monday, 19-Jan-15 02:09:05 UTC from web-
@bakarainbowdash Now you can try to be articulate in a language no one uses! yay!!!!
Monday, 19-Jan-15 02:10:37 UTC from web-
@awesam17 woohoo!!
