I feel pathetic. I finally found out exactly why it's called the PERIODIC table. Because of the relationship between the atomic number and the atomic radius of the elements. Maxima occur for the IA elements and minima occurs for the 7A elements. What great fun...
If all goes well and they aren't compelled to give me my alternatives (which I'd rather not alternatively have on my schedule), I will take these classes next year. This is interesting because CHS starts earlier than WHS but the WHS people have already signed up for next year's classes.

Am I going to die? Yes. I hope I have a shot at it, though. It would be terrible if they decided that Orchestra is more for me. "They"- meaning the school. But if I don't try, then I will forever wonder how I would've done if I'd gone through with this. On the very optimistically sunny side of the situation, chemistry is a lot more interesting than earth/space science. I actually want to learn some of this stuff.
We had Writes Upon Request today. A prompt was given, and we had to write about that on 3 small-ish pages but didn't have to fill up the whole thing. We had 45 minutes to do this. The grades are given from 1-6, 6 being the best. Our english teacher and the adjacent english classroom of the gifted people and one general class have a teacher who is also grading it.
Again- great fun.
Cough. Cough.
