<p>^^Honestly, I think it’s one of those things I’ll never lose.
^And yeah, all those children’s books bored me, so I started memorizing world capitals and geography as well as climatic trends. I know a lot of useless and possibly useful information.</p>
<p>Someone from my high school is going to Indiana next year. What a coincidence.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>^ ahahahahahahaha</p>
<p>I loved the World Almanac. I wonder if they still publish that thing.</p>
<p>^^■■■■■, icwhutudidtharr. My brother went to Indiana and dropped out due to slacking and drinking problems.
^Yeah, I don’t check anymore, but I don’t like the Guinness Book though, it’s too superficial.</p>
<p>^ Well, hopefully I won’t be condemned to the same fate. :/</p>
<p>Hopefully, though there’s not much to do there, so you might be spending a few more years with us here on High School Life. Muahahaha. I went there when I was like 7 or 8…the hotel we stayed at was in the middle of the forest or something. The only memories I have of there was the dorm that he had was small, the hotel we stayed at had great biscuits and gravy, we stopped at dairy queen and I had a butterscotch vanilla ice cream cone, and the drive back in the forest was really dark and scary. xD.</p>
<p>HAHAHAHAH pfft there’s no way I plan on sticking around HSL once I venture off to college. I’ll be WAYYY too busy having the time of my life while simultaneously balancing academics to be seen here 
</p>
<p>(I hope)</p>
<p>Well good luck on all future ventures, but now we must get back to finding ways to be smart. What did you enjoy about the World Almanac? :P</p>
<p>I have a bunch of reading due last wednesday that I haven’t finished yet</p>
<p>I liked the celebrity profiles. My 3rd grade self found them quite fascinating.</p>
<p>Oh, and can’t forget the list of every single country in the world plus their capitals.</p>
<p>Why can’t I remember anything else? </p>
<p>OOOOOh… and didn’t each edition have an updated timeline of some sort?</p>
<p>YES. And they had these fancy pictographs of random facts about agriculture. Yayyyy. haha.</p>
<p>IT’S STILL BEING PUBLISHED!!</p>

<p>MY LIFE IS OFFICIALLY COMPLETE.</p>
<p>I did a report on Swaziland in 9th grade where I neglected to mention that it had the highest rate of AIDS in the world. Probably because all of my sources were like 40 years old.</p>
<p>:O. I think my college essay will be on my love for the World Almanac. I’m gonna buy it at Borders or Barnes & Noble. :] </p>
<p>I did a report on Chile last year, and it was essentially full of awesome.</p>
<p>I did a report on Title IX last year and got a C. It was great.</p>
<p>I got 60% on my Probability Theory test 2 weeks ago</p>
<p>and the Professor gave me an A.</p>
<p>How is that possible? Generous curving? Or did you buy your professor some pizza?</p>
<p>It was in the top 3rd of the class</p>
<p>he was disappointed on the whole. Someone ended up with 117% post curve</p>
<p>Terry Tao forgot the number system. ;x</p>
<p>Which number system? We were working with the reals in that class. My other math class just uses a general field.</p>
