Noog Posted August 10, 2010 Posted August 10, 2010 300? Dangit, I wish we still had AR, I could so beat that! :O Wait, do you guys start over with your goal every quarter? We have one goal a school year. The points are tracked until the next school year. Quote
-Ryan Posted August 10, 2010 Posted August 10, 2010 Oh, seriously? We restarted every quarter. If that's the case then I already beat that kid last year by about 150 points. xD Quote
CAV of Gang Green Posted August 10, 2010 Posted August 10, 2010 I have until monday to read eragon.... Erogon is good. Eldest is also very good, except for the part where they described EVERYTHING about the Elves. The movie had good special effects, but other than that it was ok at best. I kinda wish they continued making movies for the whole series. They can improve over time. Quote

If that's the case then I already beat that kid last year by about 150 points. xD Yeah, but the 300 point person didn't have any goals above 18 points. :P You had goals constantly keeping you reading. This person didn't even HAVE to take any AR tests. Quote
livvy Posted August 10, 2010 Posted August 10, 2010 *pokes board* So I keep not posting 'cuz I'm afraid that when I do, someone's going to ninja me, since that happens a lot when I space out in the middle of a post. But I've done that three times now and no one's posted! =0 When we still had AR, we reset our goals every semester. In elementary school I almost always surpassed my goal, but in middle school I didn't have as much time to read as I used to. =\ And now in high school we don't have the AR system at all. On a totally unrelated note, I just figured out that I can sing Hallelujah by Jeff Buckley. Woah. :O Quote
Unstream Posted August 10, 2010 Posted August 10, 2010 Haha I've done that sometimes too. Not the not posting part, but the spacing out in the middle of the post :P So what's this AR thing? Quote
-Ryan Posted August 10, 2010 Posted August 10, 2010 I do that all the time. xD Gets annoying when you're on the neoboards though because 10 pages will go by. Dx Quote
IrishLiz Posted August 10, 2010 Posted August 10, 2010 We got out early!!! :D Bye! Have Fun :P My economics teacher taught the class how to get out of jury duty legally :P haha. Wow, that's special. The second or third week after I started my new job last year, I had jury duty. But I fell in the stand-by group. So I didn't even have to go in. See you later, Liz. I've had it twice before. (crazy, huh?) I seem to always get picked after I vote - I vote for everything I can. I was dismissed the first time and then in standby and not called in the second. I know one of them is for the city - I forget what the other was for. This current one is for the county. On a totally unrelated note, I just figured out that I can sing Hallelujah by Jeff Buckley. Woah. :O *looks up song* There are a lot of songs called Hallelujah. We had a reading system kind of like that in middle school, but we had to read a book in a certain level based on a test. Because I tested into the top reading comprehension group (high school seniors or whatever) I could only read books like Jane Eyre, Moby puppyblew, Dickens novels, Wuthering Heights etc. to count towards my total. My friends got to read tiny paperbacks though. :P (I read Jane Eyre because it's not as long as some of the others.) Quote

It's not a terribly difficult song, until you go up an octave for soprano range. x_x I recall them trying a system like that sometime in late elementary school. It didn't work out too well. EDIT: And I'm glad I'm not the only one who spaces out in the middle of posting. :P Quote
IrishLiz Posted August 10, 2010 Posted August 10, 2010 Oh is that the Hallelujah that Rufus Wainwright sings in Shrek? I know that one pretty well. (I can't hear very well where I am - I'm at a sandwich shop.) EDIT: I totally space out in the middle of posting too. Or, sometimes I'll start a post and get distracted on another tab and realized that I never finished the post. :laughingsmiley: Quote
Wembly Posted August 10, 2010 Posted August 10, 2010 I was definitely going to say the same thing, yay for the shrek song. Quote
-Ryan Posted August 10, 2010 Posted August 10, 2010 I do that in convos alot. I'll be halfway through a post then realize I forgot something in a different tab and return 30 minutes later thinking "whoops..." xDDD Quote
livvy Posted August 10, 2010 Posted August 10, 2010 Mhm, it's one of the apparently two Hallelujah's from Shrek. :yes: It's a gorgeous song. That's what usually happens to me. I'll be posting and then get distracted by a nonogram or something on YouTube. :P Quote
-Ryan Posted August 10, 2010 Posted August 10, 2010 OMG TDN IS WORKING AGAIN!!! I'VE BEEN REFRESHING CONSTANTLY SINCE IT WENT DOWN! :O -waits to find out it was only my computer and that i'm making an idiot of myself- Quote
livvy Posted August 10, 2010 Posted August 10, 2010 YOU TOO, RYAN? THAT'S EXACTLY WHAT I'VE BEEN DOING! :O I was so concerned. Quote
-Ryan Posted August 10, 2010 Posted August 10, 2010 It's still happening but it's not lasting for multipe hours like before. Was anyone else able to get here but the pages wee all messed up and everything was super slow? I had just gotten to the HOP when it got fixed ad I was like "YAY! THE PAGE IS NORMAL AGAIN!" Edit: -clings to HOP- STOP DOING THAT, TDN! T-T -slaps TDN- Quote
ΩCCΩ Posted August 10, 2010 Posted August 10, 2010 The same exact thing is happening to me too, the pages are taking too long to load. Quote
Spritzie Posted August 10, 2010 Posted August 10, 2010 I think my badge is the only one on the forum that leans towards Feeling :eh: If it isn't the only one, then I haven't seen another. Noog, here's my results: Mine goes to feeling 63% I've had it twice before. (crazy, huh?) I seem to always get picked after I vote - I vote for everything I can. I was dismissed the first time and then in standby and not called in the second. I know one of them is for the city - I forget what the other was for. This current one is for the county. I'm not registered to vote, so that's not why I got mine. I have no idea. And I'm glad TDN is back up again. Quote
-Ryan Posted August 10, 2010 Posted August 10, 2010 -grabs Ian's shoulders and starts shaking him- FIX IT! T-T Quote
livvy Posted August 10, 2010 Posted August 10, 2010 Yes! And then I'd try to ask if anything was happening to anyone else but the page would stop working again. D= I'm so glad TDNF is back. ^_^ Quote
CAV of Gang Green Posted August 10, 2010 Posted August 10, 2010 I also was refreshing every 10 minutes waiting for TDN to get back online. Quote
-Ryan Posted August 10, 2010 Posted August 10, 2010 AGAIN! T-T I had TDN open in a seperate tab and kept refreshing or clicking the next page depending on what happened after it stopped trying to load. Edit: It's back but it slow as heck. What is wrong with TDN right now? Edit2: OMGFINALLY!!! Quote
IrishLiz Posted August 10, 2010 Posted August 10, 2010 haha. It's still a little slow for me. I guess I didn't miss anything this afternoon. Quote
-Ryan Posted August 10, 2010 Posted August 10, 2010 Really? It's finally working ine for me now. Took me over an hour JUST to get to the TDN main page, come to the HOP, edit my post, and then go look at a convo. -eye twitch- Quote
