I'm gonna continue on more about my self, this time with my school, but first, archmage's question:
I started, like everyone (or at least every honest player), at lvl 3. Then I slowly rose up, peaking since I was trying to compete with a friend for the highest level. Later when I hit 62, I was away for a year. I blame F2P and bad internet. But then this summer, I was in Regina for a while, and had access to high speed (actually pretty low-end high speed, but for me, it was the fastest I've ever had), so I bought a one month membership. In about a week and a half, I went from 62 to 75, and did some great quests, put every member skill to at least 30, and even got 40 slayer, and bunch of other stuff. Of course, once I got back home, I was unable to play so much that I just couldn't scrape up money to play the little time I got to play, so once my membership ended, I went into 'wait mode', and am now waiting until next time I have broadband.
In a related topic, I get my learners license in a month, and should get a legit drivers license by the end of the school year (novice 1) and be able to get a summer job in Saskatoon. Once I do, I will attempt to purchase Satellite Internet! It wouldn't be cheap, probably costing about $400 CAN for the equipment and $50 a month for the subscription, but it'll be worth it!
Now onto more about me, and not my runescape account...
I go to school in a small rural school of 475, and that's K-12. Still that's actually plenty large for some of the schools in my area. A nearby francophone school has a mere 70 students.
I play all of the sports my school offers, which isn't anywhere near as much as I wish. There's volleyball, football, basketball, curling, track, cross-country, badminton, and golf. The rest aren't school but are town related, baseball, softball, hockey, etc;
I am a member of my school's SRC, on my second year, and am one of the 5 returning members, since the rest are all new. I manage all the technology, dances, fundraisers, and plenty more. I am a vital part of the school for that, and manage to fit it in with all these sports. However, I suspect I'll end up dropping some sports so that I'll be able to get a job!
I had this great teacher before. Unfortunately, he had a heart attack while playing hockey last year, and died. :'( It's actually really sad because he was the best teacher in the entire school, and that's not just my opinion. At his funeral, most of the high school showed up, and the entire football team was there in their uniforms, since he was one of their coaches. Today, his name is on their helmets and Jerseys. He was a great guy, and like a second father to some people. The funeral was so packed people even sat in the lobby of the church.
My school is a MUCH friendlier school. While I don't know much about other people's schools, if they are HALF as bad as the media portraits them, then my school could be one of the friendliest in the world!
We have very little bullying, which is pretty much brought to a standstill recently, and no reports of bullying have emerged this year yet. Everyone is kind to everyone, we don't have 'groups' like jocks, or whatever. The classes are usually 15-20 people each, and it's rare for someone to fail, usually only resulting from extreme problem students and people who just refuse to do the work, such as in gym, in which case I don't know what's with them...?
So that's all I'll share about my school. Why do I get the feel I'm the only one here...?!? ???
