I know! Civ 5 has so many LPs!

Why the hate against LP's?

Anything but 5 is a failure.

The funny thing is that I considered it a failure when I first heard that a 4 was my score for AP chem.

Why the hate against LP's?

For games like Civilization, such as Paradox games, they're soulless.

I made an interesting discovery. I have always visualized history, while apparently most people don't visualize anything and just try to recall names, dates, etc... Does anyone else here visualize with a map, or something else? Spacial recognition is our primary memory, and I think that visualizing history allows you to remember it a lot better. Like when I think of the Great Schism, I imagine Christianity breaking into two right down the Serbia area. Or when I think of the Great Depression, I picture the stock market crumbling in New York, dustbowls spreading across the mid-US, and a great migration from the east to the west as a wave of recession spreads through the world.

That's how I study usually. Unless there is something to literally memorize.
My parents teached me to study like that, and it works like a charm. I know many people who try to memorize entire book pages, even if it's a subject like history.

If you're on CFC and participated in the America IAAR, you should easily be able to get a 5 on the APUS. Chem, on the other hand...

Then again, I live in a town where people view anything other than a 5 as a failure (same for A- or below is failure).

What was America's role in global economics in the 1990s?

"Trick question! America didn't exist anymore!"

Really? We're talking about the gamecube game right?

 

[TheNoob]

Yes. I'm just about to battle Gorigan after I walk in this door in the Key Lair.

My team? Flareon (I know but she's actually really good), Lairon, Sealeo, Ampharos, Gardevoir, and Vibrava.

 

[clanky4]

The only thing I remember about that game was how awesome mirror b was


Link to video.

And the fact that togepi wouldn't evolve into togetic.

 

[TheNoob]

The battle with Gorigan went a lot smoother than expected. Got hit by ~2 earthquakes. Caught Primeape with one ultra ball, and Hypno with three.

I've been putting way too much of my writing potential into other writings lately.

 

[Royal Tenenbaum]

I'm working on a new novel called You are the First and Last of Your Kind about a parallel between a living light bulb, an alcoholic, and the reader. It's going to switch between first, third, and second person writing depending on the subject and I'm going to put a secret code in it relating to the person perspectives (1,3,2,3,1, etc. )

 

[CaterpillarKing]

That sounds pretty darn cool!

Anything but 5 is a failure.

My streak of 8 of them is probably going to come to a crashing halt this year because fun with senioritis. Also because language AP tests are hell. Ah well.

My Japanese IB (similar to AP) class was shipped the wrong level of testing, so we all got 4s.

 

[Civ'ed]

oh boy another one of us long-suffering IB students?

 

[TheNoob]

Wish me luck for our school concert tomorrow

I didn't get my AP Chem score until the October of this year. I took it last year. But I suppose that isn't really that bad.

Wish me luck for our school concert tomorrow

Good luck

FINALLY AP TESTING IS OVER! I HAVE RETURNED!

Now that I actually have a little bit of free time these days, perhaps I should start a story of my own?

 

[TheNoob]

Atlantic Pacf. doing his own story?
