<p>keylyme,
same thing with me.
our big 8th grade grad trip was a trip to the amusement park that everyone has season passes to and goes to numerous times in the summer anyway,
whoo.
lol</p>
<p>ya,
everything in school seems kinda pointless right now,
and one of my teachers is like
"she does her work because shes going to prep school next year",
and i just kind of sit there and laugh...</p>
<p>Ballerina and keylyme, you may be in the same area as me. Does the theme park also have an indoor water park?</p>
<p>not at all.
lol</p>
<p>i live in the middle of nothing</p>
<p>No....I did not even know they had indoor waterparks! There is a Six Flags with an outdoor waterpark, but that is about two hours away. This is a rinky-dink little amusement park with one ancient wooden roller coaster.</p>
<p>Canobie Lake. I believe it is located on one of Dante's circles. I hate having to chaperone those trips!</p>
<p>Indoor water parks are very big in the midwest and are spreading all over the country. When my son was younger, I brought him to the Wisconsin Dells, the "Midwestern Riviera" Wisconsin</a> Dells (WI): Official Website of the Visitor & Convention Bureau It's a good place to work off senioritis.</p>
<p>"I believe it is located on one of Dante's circles." LOL!</p>
<p>That's how I feel about all theme parks! </p>
<p>The indoor water parks seem like such a great idea when it hasn't gotten above 5 degrees for weeks; but every time a start to consider going, it morphs into a gigantic petri dish and I shudder. </p>
<p>Well, good luck to all trying to keep their eighth graders on track these last few months. Let them gloat a little, though. Admittance is great achievement.</p>
<p>i've pretty lost the motivation to do anything now that i've found out that i'm going to exeter next year,
having a major english paper due in a week and a math exam in two doesn't help either.
buuut there's a fancy formal soon and my birthday; 2 things that keep me going =)
on the other hand, losing friends i've made in a year keeps me down, but the aspect of being able to go shopping in the states after a year of confinement in nowhere-to-shop-land makes me happy
ahhh its going to be bittersweet, the rest of the school year.</p>
<p>hahah canobie lake..i live like 45 mins from there. But you guys do have to keep up your grades becuase i know a girl who is graduating as a senior this year from my school who got early acceptance to upenn, she let her grades slip a little and they revoked her admission. It might not be a boarding school but it does happen.</p>
<p>yes i got to a private school, and yes i'm in eighth grade. i go to a very very small school, so their budget is able to stretch a lot more than other schools. we're all really lucky. i had a fantastic trip. quite life changing.</p>
<p>OH.MY.GOD.
i just stopped studying for my tests recently (but thankfully my grades haven't actually changed) and i got a letter from exeter this morning that told me that i needed to send in my FINAL TRANSCRIPT to exeter to be "fully" accepted or something.
EEK. i hope nothing goes wrong (my final exams for example)</p>
