Yes great job Beefers. Nice to see a young person work so hard to better themselves. Jordan doesnt have a choice his mother gives him homework in the summer, and it better be done we she gets home or there is heck to pay!

She even scares me lol

Nice report card Beefers. If I recall correctly you had mentioned last years your not so great grades. That makes getting those grades even better and more fulfilling.

Yep, last year wasn't great for me, as I was slacking off and lost motivation. I'm not one of those people who get A's without trying (except in French, which I'm somehow naturally good at), and I had always been just a regular B student, so I'm surprised with how things are going this year.

But then again, grades mean very little in the real world so I hope that I can actually apply what I've learned to the real world someday.

LOL... for awhile I thought about going into politics as a conservative but that's a long, bumpy road and I'd rather just settle for a steady 9-to-5 white-collar job.

I was the opposite, got high grades without studying. My problem in high school was not doing homework and still usually ended up with B's well actually 80% which is how our grades were done.

LOL, lucky you then. Used to be like that in grade 8 and 9 but then again high school was a joke back then.

If you went to school in the Mid-Atlantic region of the US you wouldn't be having that test tomorrow, or possibly this week at all. LOL. Good luck.

Felt pretty good about the test. Good thing, considering I bombed the last one.

Went to an Olympic torch relay celebration today. Saw the flame, but the crowd was way to thick to see the torch. Dang. I did get a very nice Olympic torch-themed bottle of Coke though. I wanted to take pictures (and post them here) but it was very difficult given the lighting and the crowd. My dad got a few though, and I'll post them up here in awhile.
