Hello again everyone!
Chatterbox: Down to Earth
Hello again everyone!
Hello again everyone! I know I don't visit much on CB anymore, but I still plan to come on every once and a while. Also, I have a question: Who has taken the PSAT test? I am supposed to take it next year, and I am quite nervous (Maybe because I hate all tests). And I also have some news: In Spring or Summer of next year, I will be RVing with my family, and I think that means no more CB (and no more minecraft...). But there is one good thing about that: I get to see all or most of North America! Oh, and maybe even Mexico and Canada. If only RVs could go overseas to other places...
Well anyways, I just wanted to come in and say hello. Oh and does anyone have a birthday in April?
P.S - I just finished the Percy Jackson series, and am now waiting for The Last Hero to come in at the library (Percy Jackson is the first or second best series I ever read!).

Hi, Ashlee! I don't know you too well, but welcome back to the Chatterbox!
And about your question of April birthdays, my birthday is in April! I'm turning 12 on April 6.

Hello Nina! My birthday is on April 9th and I will be turning thirteen. I cannot believe our birthdays are only a few days apart!

Hey Ashlee! It's nice to see you again. My birthday is April 26. And regarding the SATs, I took them in December and really, the math section is the most difficult. Also the essay section is kind of difficult.

Oh, hey, I remember you! Welcome back!
About the PSATs, I took them this year. If you have a good vocabulary and know algebra and geometry, you should be fine. I was kind of nervous about it, but I ended up doing fine. The test is designed for Juniors, but I'm a sophomore and I got a better score than most of the juniors I've compared with. A tip: if they give you a practice test, go through it. It helps you find out what type of questions they ask. And remember, these are just a practice for the SATs. The worst that could happen is you could get bombarded by college admissions two years early if you get a good score.

Ashlee, welcome back!
About the PSAT, as a homeschooler, I don't think I'll have to worry about that specific test, though likely the ACT or SAT.
RVing with your family sounds AWESOME! I've always wanted to do something like that! Lucky you!
And yeah, the Percy Jackson series is awesome as well! I'm a total fangirl for it!

Well unluckily for me I am not that good at math. As for writing essays, I should do fine, and hopefuly okay on vocabulary. So my main worry is math. Well at least I still have time to practice. And it is cool to see other people with a birthday in April. Last night I was on CB writing a comment on a thread from summer about the Percy Jackson series. And I have to say, I don't even know my favorite parts, but my favorite person is Annabeth. Also do any of you play UCC which is a minecraft server?

Welcome back Ashlee! I was wondering where you were after NaNo... (: RVing sounds cool! Speaking of travel, I'm planning to go to Arizona during Spring break, hopefully. That would be so cool! The only birthday in April I know is my mom's btw.

Ashlee! Welcome back to the magnificent CB!
RVing sounds totally awesome! I've dreamed of it at times, but never thought my family would actually do it. What kind of places are you going to goto? (If you can't go to the specifics, that's fine. Just curious.)

Well I think our new home state is going to be Texas since the homeschooling laws are good, there are a lot of homeschooling groups, and we can go down there during the winter, since it is not very safe to drive in the snowy states. For the other states, we plan to visit them all! Depending on the season and the RV parks' prices, we could be really anywhere. I sure hope I can go to Florida... They have one of the most endangered cats in the world - the Florida Panther. Well it is nice to be back on CB again!

That sounds super fun. And Texas welcomes you anytime! ;)
