I wish I had a girl...only 1 girl has liked me....and she couldn't date til she was 16 (same rule w/ me though, we are both 15 to...hmph)

it's not really fun when you can't really have a decent conversation and their gpa is yours divided by 4

Heh...true. But my point is there though (low self-esteem....sux).

The girl I took to my school's homecoming and to the movies once (she's on 179)...and no we aren't going out yet....I've asked once (the FIRST and only girl) and she said no. We're both rather busy with IB schoolwork and robotics of course so neither one of us has time to devote to a long distance relationship. Maintaining a friendship that's right on the edge of going out (in a way) is tough as it is. But I took that chance...and its been a very interesting two years (well, this March) that I've known her. Also, definately go places (not necessarily steady) like me with someone you share a few common things. Despite our grade level differences (I'm in 12th, she's in 11th...but only 7 months and 3 days older...had to do explaining to parents) its actually a pretty good relationship (we could never get angry at one another) and love to be together, talk, write....but most importantly...it better be being together someplace. Last, it helps if the person's parents likes you....its a bit easier to go do stuff together (even if its as lame as walking up and down the pit area at the Championship). she maybe a blonde but she's highly intelligent...its an interesting as there are many dumb blonde jokes out there. Maybe the jokes on us.

we don't have IB, only AP :(

What's IB and AP?

International Barricular(don't know how to say it spell it)

Advanced Placement

Ah, ok, thanks. I don't think my school offers anything like that (my school is in the middle of no where basically).

IB........
 

IB is the International Baccalaureate program. Schools are evaluated before they are permitted to start to offer the program. IB is the last two years of high school and culminates in the extended essay (1500 words), internal and external examinations (external = tests rated a 1 to 7 unlike AP 1-5, internal - teacher evaluates your work) and a bunch off stuff too complicated to explain here. Its a world recognized program started by diplomats. Why? Because the children of diplomats shifted from assignment to assignment and when they went back to the mother country they could not go on to college. The reasoning was they didn't have a high school diploma or its equivalent in that country. If you get the IB diploma (what the program's all about) by meeting the various requirements, you can attend out of high school, ANY college or university in the world as they would accept the IB diploma as the equivalent of one from a school in their country. To go to a college overseas, like OXFORD in England, you need a college degree first. IB and AP are like we hate one another but colleges look better on IB as it is a very vigorous program. The workload is much heavier than AP in that the requirements differ. But some parts of IB are in the dark ages....the PURE pesudocode for IB computer science is pascal with a few changes. Now who remembers programming in Pascal?????

I personally must say that "seeing their chick 5 hours a day" is a very male chauvinistic pig-like statement. I would rather be viewed as a gentleman in the first place. Now, I would not mind seeing Pamela (everyone says we're a couple...she's also on 179) 5 hours a day. We have done that outside of robotics... movie and dinner as well as homecoming...but a lot of time we've spent together is at robotics competition (its even more time together if our teams are staying at the same hotel....I just dash to make it back to my room right before curfew after saying goodnight).

"I would love to be in a relationship where U could be treated like a person and not an object and carry on a normal conversation about nothing and be so interested that I smile through the whole thing. That is a great feeling to call someone and be able to smile the whole conversation" - Shelley_delphi chick (thought I'd note what I'm responding to)

Pamela and I personally we already do that even through we are staying as friends (not dating....but we have gone out to places). That's how I knew I really cared about her as I found I was completely at ease, comfortable talking about anything with her. We never fight/argue and nothing could ever make us mad/angry with one another. Its is a great feeling to be able to see/talk to someone and never break a simile you put on your face the moment you hear the other person's voice. Its a beautiful thing. To those who don't know by now (I wonder nowadays of who doesn't) just read my previous post in this thread.

BTW, IB doesn't get you that much...I'm in it at one of the top schools for it. BTW your extended essay is at least 3200 words, but believe as you may. The workload isn't that bad...but then again its all what you put into it. AP and IB don't hate each other, you can get credit for both. Since I know you are in FL, you know you automatically get in UF or FSU with decent grades but those are the few schools that do that....
oh well
/me starts work on Theatre Paper

Ok, not trying to be rude, but this is getting off topic....back on track here: Easist pickup is "Hi!", hardest is thinking of one up yourself :D

Never heard that one....I gotta use that one *especially since I forgot my crush's name*

I'm really wondering, now...
