And yes, he had a student one year who didn't even know what leap year was and her birthday was ON FEBRUARY 29TH!

In other words when my 3 year old daughter wants to watch a bird video or play song from Macaulay I'd better steer clear of Rails in addition to parrots 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Connor Cochrane Posted August 26, 2021 Share Posted August 26, 2021 14 hours ago, Kevin said: How are y'all liking school this year? It's definitely busy. I started three days ago, but I'm already in the routine of Waking Up, going to school, going to water polo, eating dinner, doing homework, then going to bed with no real free time. I'm already up to 2-3 hours of homework a day, and I haven't received any major assignments yet. It won't help that soon I'll have to do some clubs to add to the college resume soon. However, it's fun and academy challenging, and it seems like Sophomore year you have somewhat of a freedom. Not as hard academically as your Junior year, and not pushed around and rushing to learn everything like Freshman year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've noticed this is the case. I was homeschooled when I was most active on the site about 10 years ago. I actually started the original YB thread! I think we would add like 2-3 new pages of posts to the topic every day. Whatbird also used to have a chatroom. I had to kick at least two people off the forums for saying inappropriate things in the chatroom lol. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Okay. Next time you should drink it with honey. It's good stuff, but you shouldn't take it straight. My mother will occasionally drink apple cider vinegar with honey.
