CaptainPea is just a muppet, don't listen to him.

E-sports are Electronic Sports. For example, computer games, video games etc.

But you know, on the professional level, which takes countless of hours to get to.

We're having a thunderstorm right now, which is great what with the rain and the theatrics, but if the power goes out and I miss the deadline to turn in my classwork for online Health I'm gonna be more than a bit mad.

Don't they teach you in Health that it's bad for your health to be mad(anger)? |D

But hey, I hate thunderstorms for the same reason (for the nth time said.)

Who, me or Hyper?

It's not unlikely for North Carolina and Maryland to get similar weather, possibly the same storm at the same time.

And Hyper, if your service is as bad as ours is in DC has been, I understand what you mean.

Well..

Light Rain - Internet slows down
Medium Rainfall - Internet might die
No-thunder storm - 5% chance for power to fail.
Thunderstorm - 40% chance for power to fail.

Yeah, the distribution line system are still from the 1980's.

Yep. Exactly what happens to me everytime it rains. Amazingly enough the power did not fail when it rained for a whole week.

School has taught me that the cabling in America is designed as such. Usually it's even redundant so that even if one line fails there would still be a back-up.

Here... It's the same line as a phone line...

Yeah, the lines are more safe underground, but that also requires that the city be built with careful planning... Which doesn't really happen here... + _+

If yours is anything like my Freshman year, you'll be fine. Can't say there's much to be nervous about.
The staff seemed to think we were less prepared for high school than we were, so the classes ended up being fairly lax as far as workload. They kept giving us "stern lectures" about how "this is how it works in high school!" and "we don't put up with that middle school stuff!", when the work was half as much as we'd had in 8th grade... that was fun.

Not saying that'll necessarily be the case where you're going though. Do all your work young man! *waggles old man fingers*

Really, it's good to do all your work. Even if it's overassigned.

The first week of school is always fun, in my opinion.

I'm missing school because I have too much work! I usually work up to deadlines (otherwise, I can't convince myself it's worth doing, argh I'm such a teenager), so when the deadline is two months away, I tend to put it off and end up with all of my summer work to do in the last two and a half weeks of August. Once school is open, I'll have that behind me and I can do fun stuff without guilt.

Well before i go completely mental in a minute. Here's a tip from ...the paper.. <.< no ones looking >.> if you were anything like me when i started my Freshman year, i wanted to get the hell out of there, quick. So find a seat in all the classes that you are having, and then stick to it. Also if you are that bored in class, do not resort to your mobile...teachers can see through tables...T_T just draw or ..stare at something that catches your eye....OR WRITE that's what i would always do.

Hunger can be bad, don't forget to pack lunch...even if its just a sandwich or if your school has a cafeteria ..yeah you know what i mean. On a last note...YOUR FREAKING TIME TABLE...never forget this ...EVER always keep it in a zipped up compartment of your bag or something like that. As you ease into your daily routine of classes, you will eventually not need it anymore, But for the time being, Keep it at your side at all times.

*sweeps your foot so you fall on your back* now I'm a wee bit taller by comparison. X3

I've met a few teachers before at camps and we have instructors at my martial arts hall. I happen to like teachers. Perhaps some are mean, some are bad at their job, but a good many are fairly good. The trick I find to having a good teacher relationship is to be interested and ask questions. And generally being friendly always helps anyone to like you! :3 I just like people who know stuff. Makes me feel dumb sometimes but always helps me get smarter! >:3 So then I can growandgetahugeheadandtakeovertheworld!!... more or less. X3

I actually liked a lot of my school lunches. and when I didn't, they had a line that had pizza everyday. and one that had things like meatball subs, steak and cheese subs, and buffalo chicken subs. I almost never packed lunch.

Alright, I TOTALLY don't mean to derail the main conversation here, but I have to ask. Does anyone here play Fantasy Football by chance? I'm thinking of starting a Housepets! only League and I wanted to know if anyone was really interested instead of making a brand new thread only to find that it was completely meaningless... If anyone WANTS to play, then I guess that's a good sign, just hit me up.

And now, back to our regularly scheduled chat!

It's impossible to derail this thread, so don't worry. That said, don't be afraid to make a thread for it! If the thread dies, the thread dies. But it'd be the best way to get peoples' attention. That said, I don't play Fantasy Football.
