Don't worry, competition isn't until Feb. 25th.
Yeah, we have it pretty late. :o
I feel like I need to study like crazy for some reason. But then again, don't we all?

Just a question to all of you, how many events are you doing? How many do you hope to succeed in? :?: :?: :?:

I am competing in five, but I don't hope to succeed in any of them. :P I'm sorry; I had to... it was just such a silly question to me.

Um, dearest, our Regionals are earlier than the vast majority of the country...
Although our teams do get selected late. But you can't blame our coach...our Regionals schedule doesn't come out early enough, methinks. Plus, with over 150 people to put into teams...
I want to study so much, but there's just not enough TIME...

We've had some teammates have close brushes with national titles in the past, but I don't think we've ever actually had a gold medalist in a study event before. We've had a silver though (not bad for the deep south). :P
foreverphysics is NOT your typical specimen of a student. More like more-intellectual-than-most-people-can-imagine-or-feel-comfortable-with. :lol:
The only reason artistic homework takes you forever is because you're a dang perfectionist. I am quite sure your language teacher doesn't expect that good of art. And you're really good at art, even without the whole every-line-must-be-perfection deal.
Thank you for that last line. You flatter me.

What's all this Pokemon talk? Isn't Pokemon just Pokemon? You know, it involves a yellow chipmunk with a tail of furry lightning repeatedly jumping out of a red-and-white ping pong ball?

Physics is difficult for 99% of the world's population because they don't understand it. The other 1% know too much.

So are you saying that you don't hope to, but you *know* you will?

Getting all excited when my Pokemon evolve...
Gambling in the Game Corner (those coins were so expensive)...
Pressing "A" at every rock in hope of getting a rare item...
Defeating Rayquaza (not catching it), in belief that it would give my Skeptile some kind of super power...
Using the cloning glitch to produce lots of Rare Candy's...
Playing over wifi with my friends...
I've logged in 600+ hours into that game. I was obsessed with it as a kid.

I can't seem to find my Red. It's too bad, playing with missing no. and the glitch world was so fun.
Oh, it's spelled missing no.? It's been sooooo long I thought it was different. And yeah I've put way too much time into pokemon games as well, koko. 600+ hours sounds close. Same with the time I've put into Final Fantasy IX alone (That's what my picture is from. Vivi is my favorite character)

I currently have 6? on my lineup for the coming invitational on January 28. But I haven't finalized lineups, because Solo and Ensemble is that day and we're going to lose people and the schedule isn't out yet, so it looks like I'm slated to probably end up with about 9, maybe even 10 (that would be scary).
I'd hope to succeed in all of them, but I haven't started studying yet, so...

Neither has ours, and we only have maybe 20 people to pick from; our invitational setup (which sends 2 teams) isn't even final yet.
