lol. I use a lot of different cirruculums. My mom is like the ciriculum queen. You should have your mom email my mom. She'd put her on the right track!

Meh. I'm not worried. I'll get it all done and go to public school next year. (Cookies.) haha
If I don't, I'll just work as much as I can and go back to my co op next year and deal. >.< I have a perfectly good reason why I want to do what I hope to, but I'm too tired to type it out right now.

I see home schooling is much more popular in the US than it is here in Oz. I know very few people who were homeschooled and no offense to ya homeschoolers here but they were extremely weird and lacked social skills. You guys are great though  Personally, I like pubilc school even though its a pain. You get to experience a lot and it does teach something even if its something like don't stick your hand in a bowl of acid >.< lol I mean without school I wouldn't have been able to go on tours to Sydney and NZ. they were awesome. wirr PS who ever it was having trouble with Chemistry, I'm good at that if you need help |

Well, homeschoolers see you public schoolers as weird and really loud. I do, soemtimes...one of my buddies at my co op was like, "I'm just glad that I'm what the world considers to be weird." We were having another philosophical discussion about "weirdness" and "normalicy," and what it is exactly. It just depends on what you think it is. They're self-defining words. I, personally, think I am completely normal, and it's everyone else who has the problem. I'm not crazy, even though people look at me like, "Riona, you've fallen off your rocker again." Meh. They're just jealous of my rocking chair, that's all. |

very true, the words "normal" and "weird" don't define anything exact at all, and it depends on who you're talking to, i find.
lol, so Ri, do you fall off the rocking chair?? lol that was lame, sorry
I'm glad homeschoolers think we're loud, cause thats what i think of most schoolers, loud!!

Hi all. I'm homeschooled as well, but I have to be in order to get a decent education. Hawaii is the most uneducated state in the US (it has been proven) and I know why. The teens constantly talk back to the teachers, and hardly ever do their assignments. It is "cliquey"; you know, where everyone is divided into groups. Popular, losers, geeks, nobody-knows-your-name. I was somewhere between loser and geek. Anyway, I started homeschooling last year, and I adore it! I can learn so much, and do it all in my pajamas! (Teehee) I also have much more free time. Instead of wasting eight hours in school, then going home and doing five hours of homework, I do around 5 hours of school a day (7 days a week) and am doing alright. I dread having to go back to high school. I need to for my junior and senior year, to get credits and learn about college. I'm actually really scared. I didn't fit in before; I really don't want it to all replay again.  |
