Well, this year isn't going to be an easy one. While I can guarantee that things like coming on here will be there...
-- I have an AP class now. I's not really hard, but it's tie-consuming - an essay a week.
-- I'm taking up the Violin and Piano more lately - less time for other things, obviously.
-- I'm going to study more programming - higher levels.
-- I also will be doing graphic design for friends, since someone requested an animation of Silare attacking a cow (and failing).
-- I got a new computer... If it works (I haven't started it up yet), it'll run faster than anything I've ever used (except those Mac Pros... Geez. Two Dual Cores... 16 GB RAM... *drool*), but importing my old hard drive can take quite some time.
-- I'm reviving Cult of the Metools. I have neglected it somewhat since I've come here and lately it's rotting away. I love this site dearly, I'll say... But I miss the thing that got me into any form of roleplaying and gave way to make my roleplaying decent. ^_^;

Err... What's AP?
Sounds like you have your hands full, Sil. Don't worry too much about being only semi-active here. We understand.
@ Rockgirl: How are ya a pwn goddess when you have yet to pwn anything? Also I will not worship ya when I could pwn ya instead.

Jake: I know. I KNOW. I have been in one completed Netbattle and lost miserably. Please do NOT rub salt in the wound. I can't even look cute or cool here. _ _""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""'"""""
AP, if I remember correctly, is I think Advanced Placement.

Ooh! You shoulda' seen ME! Hymn's first movelist made him a really nice and big wussy. All I did with him was spam Proto Arm Sigma, and other SEs sicne his moves were so insanely useless. He couldn't win anything.
And yes - Advanced Placement... It's almost like a College level class taught at High School, and it usually merits an extra GPA point for passing grades (i.e. 5.0 for A, 4.0 for B, 3.0 for C... D is sitll 1.0 and F is still 0.0).
Thanks for the kind notes, guys.

I assume it's AP Language Arts from the sound of it...
Well,you're definitely going to be busier,but it should pay off.
Don't fret and enjoy what you're going to be doing. Time is like money,best spent wisely.

An A in an AP class is suppose to merit a 6.0 weighted GPA, at least thats what they were here. O.o
And personally, I preferred AP classes to honors or *shudders* regular classes. The teacher lectures, you take notes (or don't, in my case, I just remembered what was said) and you do an Essay and take a test. No busy work, no bull **** assignments that insult your level of intelligence. Very strait foreward, College-like classes. Funny thing being, if you have a decent teacher, you'll cover FAR more material than you would in the college equivilent of the class. I took AP Probability And Statistics in my junior year of high school and took the college class over the summer, since I figured I had a good idea what we'd be doing, and it turned out to be about half as indepth as the high school class. Same goes for my AP Psychology class I took in my senior year, Introductory to Psychology in college(supposedly the same class as the high school one) was less informative, covered far less conditions, states and prominent Psychologists.
Anyways, if you're looking for a taste of college, AP classes are the way to go. I highly reccomend them to anyone who is intelligent and/or college-bound (as the two don't necessarily go hand in hand, as in Stef's case). I personally took 17 different AP classes in my high school career O_o but then I was also intense into my school work, so meh... man I was such a geek >_<

Yeah, high school hasn't really done anything for my college career. I took these so-called "Honors" classes as well as the above mentioned three AP classes... the APs were the only good ones, and the only one that hasn't helped me is Bio. All the other classes... >_<
Basically, my high school, in short words, sucked.

@ Stef: I'm terribly sorry to hear that Stef....:'(. Did It end well though? I hope so...
@ Megagirl: seems like your in the same boat I was in, I got easily discouraged from constant losses out in the battle field, hence why over the past 3 years I believe it has been I have had 3 separate accounts, each one proceeding the other after it's deletion by me. Don’t get stressed out about it, just hang tough until ya level up. One really awesome way of leveling up is signing up for missions, in doing this you can gain massive amounts of exp in short amounts of time. Heck, most of my experience points come from losing to higher level navis, if the navi’s level is high enough you can actually get the same amount of experience you would have gotten had you won a same version fight.
@ Silare: Congratulations!!! I am glad your having fun with life, I envy you so much right now!!! ^_^!!! I’m also glad to hear about the new computer! Hope ya have fun with it! I’ll be stopping by the cult, see ya their! ^_^
