Edits: 26 December 2024,
I made Chinese "calligraphy" last Saturday or Sunday.

I'll get back to this later.
Driver's Ed started today; after I finished 2/9 of the course, I got locked out from the lessons! I'm exaggerating a bit-- the final exams and the Class E written test will be their own things to study for...?
Driver's Ed is still unavailable, and I actually did rewrite that essay. I'll have to work hard editing it to make it an acceptable final paper. I think I might upload my introductory paper for POS 2041 when I find time.
To make this more of an effective weblog, I think I'll just throw everything here instead of tagging things and whatever. Everyone has ctrl+f, or in German-language Word documents ctrl+g, really.
I wonder if I can make a gopher:// edition of this website. That'd be cool, "just for the giggles," so some random gopher-hole called it.
Hopefully my Driver's Ed course will become available today. It is 10:46, and I have an essay to edit, to write, and Algebra II to sit through. I can hear the whiteboard rolling around-- I better start on my Algebra problems.
14:45: Haha! The first essay is almost finished! I'll probably rewrite most of the other, and Driver's Ed is still unavailable.
These updates might be replaced by a searchable "Ambitions" page. I'll just put a link to the Academic Weblog
Reguardless, today's update:
The semester that previously started is now to be wrapped up for winter break. SLS1103 is completely finished, but I'm still waiting on my professor to grade an assignment; I expect to get an A because I've only lost 6 points this whole semester. My worst grade possible at the moment is an 89%.
As for American Federal Government, I have two 300-350 word essays due on the 8th, so I'll aim to finish them by the 4th, in case of technical difficulty. My worst possible grade in that class is a 68% or so, because the final essays are 300 points total.
I really ought to put this down and keep working, but I'll stall myself a bit longer: the first essay is about 35% done, and the second is not started. I think I'll go start on the second one to remedy the writer's block of the first.
I return about five months later to document my academic progress. My homeschool has moved to 11th grade, and I have started college with POS2041 and SLS1103. Furthermore, I passed all of the Postsecondary-Education-Readiness-Tests with grades of: 150(100%) for reading, 134(84%) for writing, and 139(89%) for maths. My personal interests have been partially neglected in recent time, but I have engaged myself in a few short-lived pursuits; these include maintaining my Duolingo to 1045 days, refined cheese (which is quite expensive), and Trigonometry over the summer. I do have a POS2041 midterm-presentation due two weeks from now, so I'm reluctant to squander my afternoons.
This website doesn't currently fit my public image, so I can't post it quite yet; I suspect I ought to remove those blue polka-dots in my background.
Same-day additon: I've also dabbled in Chineese handwriting.
Day-after edit: I forgot to mention antiques (Winsor chairs!) and "classical" records (I particulary enjoy speeches, stories, or lectures)
I'm currently homeschooled on a 10th grade level, but work above that in my personal studies. Furthermore, I will be taking the PERT tests in February through April of this year. My personal interests include: mathematical logic (incompleteness theory), philosophy (pragmatism), economics (inflation), psychology (Briggs and Myers), sociology (Max Weber), rhetorical technique (writing structure/ parallelism), religious studies (theodicies, their necessity/ lack thereof), The German language (pre-war Austrian (mostly Jewish) Rennasiance), marketing (Bernay's "Propaganda"), html, and, of course, literature (Romeo and Juliet for school, currently a nonfiction for personal).
I don't know what I'm doing with this last bit:
