<p>It feels really weird to say girls, IMO, since I really don’t feel like a kid anymore, and I see middle schoolers and elementary school kids all the time, and it seems so strange to then consider high schoolers the same way.</p>
<p>Also, saying the term females reveals the fact that intimate contact with such a group of humans is a rare occasion at my school, mostly since they are non-existent (cue joke about my contact with non-existent/non-human things)</p>
<p>Edit: You took Algebra 1 as a freshman? That’s really cool; A lot of kids, myself included, get really demoralized by all the freshmen in AP Calc, but your success offers me some hope (BTW 2018’ers, ignore me, I’m a ■■■■■, for I’m was in AP Stats/Pre-Calc as a sophomore)</p>
<p>@Apollo11 Does CT mean Connecticut? If so, then no I am not in Connecticut.
Thanks guys! Is physics hard because that’s what I’m taking freshman year. I wish more 18ers were on here though.</p>
<p>Anyway, AP Physics B was killer for me this year; make sure you have a good teacher.</p>
<p>In fact, I helped write a study all about how the problem with STEM education isn’t that we don’t encourage it, but because the education support system isn’t there. For STEM, if you have good teachers, counselors and parents, it should be a breeze, but otherwise, you’ll fall, and hard.</p>
<p>Also, what kind of physics are you taking? AP Physics 1 isn’t that hard at all, and Physics 2 only gets difficult with weird problem solving. AP Physics C however is a cancer and a sin; it should be abolished from this earth.</p>
<p>You’ll be fine. I did essentially the same and it was easy. Also, math teachers have always been bad for me, but I’d recommend you take this time to do some Unstructured Exploration into niche math fields to maybe spark a passion.</p>
<p>I think it’s sort of misguided to have dating as a priority when you’re in high school, mostly because things never go according to plan when other people’s wishes are involved. I mean, I had enough trouble planning my classes. I used to think a lot about dating when I was in middle school, but I never had the opportunity to date anyone until I was almost eighteen years old and taking classes on a college campus. </p>
<p>I don’t want it to end up being a distraction for me. I also don’t think I’m ready for it either. I feel like I should try to learn more about myself and who I really am as a person and learn to love and accept that before I try to put myself out there for someone else and let them in. Another reason is that I’d like someone who is mature and a little more focused. I think I’m better off finding someone like that in college instead of high school. Finally I’d like some more privacy and independence in my life first. </p>
<p>Extreme awkwardness and/or gunner status? JK, but meeting CCers in real life would be really strange IMO. I’m pretty sure @kypdurron @CE527M and/or @metsfanAJM might know more about IRL CC meet-ups, but AFAIK, they don’t really happen</p>
<p>I don’t know if any CCers actually met up, but I do know that a bunch of them are friends with each other on Facebook. Also, there’s a Facebook group full of circa 2010 CCers who talked a lot about how they got banned. </p>
<p>It would be weird to meet up with CCers IRL, but I wouldn’t be completely opposed to it, assuming they’re not pedos or catfish. </p>

I have seen a couple of 16ers, IRL, but IDK if anyone knows who I am despite the fact that I’ve been pretty open about my identity and that I’m relatively exposed (HSL is moderately big and I interact a lot)</p>
