Hey, another early learner. I was reading before I went into kindergarden
(Which would be about 4 or 5) and was teaching the others how to read in
Kindergarden. In 1st grade I was tutored about 2nd grade material. 5th grade
I was in a math class that taught Algebra (and look what it did to me....made
me stupid in math). I was one of the people that did the Auk computer thingy
(something like online Battle of the Brains, which I am the Co-Captain of the
BotB at my high school). And next year i'm taking 2 Advance Placement classes
in History and Science (I am a year ahead in science and math). And hopefully
my Senior year i'll be taking 4 AP classes in Math (Calculus 1), Science (AP
Physics), English, and Psychology. And i'm a lefty tooooo!!!

I removed the brain intact from a fetal pig and my teacher wouldn't give me
extra credit. She said it was "unfair".

Misha.
