I had a friend share this picture on FB too and said how amazing the elephants were and beautiful. I politely pointed out that it was a Disney Jungle Cruise picture and I think she was a little embarrassed because she thought it was a real elephant. I really didn't try to embarrass her, she hasn't ever been to a Disney park so I suppose it wasn't familiar to here. However, if she would look at my pictures or go with me then she would know! :)

Yeah, the person who shared it was a very sweet lady who I know didn't realize. I told her uh, well, it's not real, very politely. What was funnier was that the original page it was posted on no one figured it out...someone even said "That looks like a statue"...I had a good laugh. Guess Disney Imagineers really are that good.

Yeah, our big sport was basketball. Everyone came to the games. Our football team lost every game for like 7 years in a row....no one bothered to come to those games. The stands were practically empty. Not many girls wanted to cheer for Football, because it was cold and our team was awful, but it required coordination, so it was harder to make that squad than it was to make Wrestling cheerleading. Basketball cheerleading was the hardest to make, and it was weird because we only had 5 girls plus one alternate on Basketball cheerleading, but we had something like 7 or 8 on Football...I don't know why.

We have a 10 girl squad for both Football and Basketball. All the girls are awesome and me being the Flyer on the team I really rely on every one of them a lot. I also love our coach. She is actually one of us really. She is one of the youngest teachers in our school and she really looks out for us girls like a big sister.

Yeah, I think it's harder to learn at home because you don't have anyone to pronounce the words for you, etc. My daughter is doing really well in both French and German, but she's had to help a couple of her friends because they just aren't getting it at home. Only one month left of school here now, and they are back part time. They divided the class into 3 groups and they go every 3 days. According to E, the kids who are failing have to be in 2 groups, so they are going 4 days a week. Her group was only supposed to have 6 kids in it, all of her friends, but they added a kid this week who was failing, and at least one of her friends was also put into a 2nd group this week. Hopefully they can bring their grades up in this last month. Otherwise that won't be in E's class next year, which would be a bummer.

Yeah with German working it online it was like I was left out in the cold. Almost all of my friends were taking Spanish and a few French so I pretty much had no one. My parents don't know German so they weren't much of a help either. Wow, they go to school really late. I will be going back on August 10th which I don't want to think about. Right now my school district hasn't really decided if they are going to start online or partial days going to school and some online.

It might even be worse in college, because the projects tend to be more difficult and there are a lot of students who are only there because mom and dad are paying for it, and they get to party...who cares whether they pass? They aren't invested in it and have nothing to lose if they fail. You'll need to choose your groups wisely.

Thanks for the advice. I know I am going to want a bit of both worlds when I go to college. I am going to want to do well in the classes and also have fun and go to parties. Hell, that is just me. I want to experience it all I guess.

I am gonna make sure I have an easy schedule my Senior Year.

Mix it up a little. I had AP economics, AP Spanish, College Algebra, and AP English (although AP English was a joke...I still got a 4 on the exam, though) but then I had journalism, screenwriting, and chorus. It was balanced. I wasn't overly stressed, but the credits I earned from AP classes helped so I was able to skip a semester of college later (I graduated in 3.5 years).

Although I took health the second half of the year and you could tell I had senioritis because I got a B in a really easy class that I should have gotten an A in. I just did not care. We also did microeconomics the first half of senior year and macroeconomics the second half...I got a 5 on microeconomics and a 4 on macroeconomics. It really didn't matter based on how my college did the credit, but you can tell which class I paid more attention to.
