@mischievous-thwaplingOh, I would love for the first option, but it’s probably in your best interest to go for the second π
Haha, that’s funny.Β Someday, I’m gonna do that.Β First, I should probably get a plane to the arctic and into the middle of nowhere before I drink the three mugs though π
Well, everybody in my house is homeschooled–so I guess we are together in the house a lot–but my dad works a lot, so he doesn’t have a ton of fee time, and when he’s home in the evenings, he’s kinda tired, so he’s not really in the mood for.. well, you know.Β Messing around, whatever.Β But in the morning, he still has a lot of energy and just kids with all of us, which is really fun. π I’m homeschooled homeschooled–not social distancing–but my older siblings are pretty busy all the time, then I’m getting kinda busy, so I don’t play with my younger siblings asΒ much πΒ But yeah, all in all, I’d say I’m in the same boat as you when you said that it’s not like you don’t get enough time with your siblings π

@lonathecatHaha then I’ll come to Antarctica with you. After all, someone should make sure the penguins are safe before we give you any caffeine. π
That makes sense. Being busy and having lots of school stuff can be pretty tiring. Out of curiosity, does your family use a certain homeschooling curriculum? My family does a mash-up of like 5 different ones. (We’re so organized :P. )

@mischievous-thwaplingSorry for the delay in getting back to you.Β With the combination of school and the fact that I’m trying to be on the computer less, it’s been harder to keep up with everything π
Oh yes! I completely forgot about the penguins.. That could give us some trouble π
Lol, I get that.Β We aren’t the most organized family that ever walked the planet either π I also do that. I use the Sunlight Homeschool Curriculum for some subjects (Like history, and science, and, reading, etc.), but for math I use Teaching Textbooks, then for writing I use IEW (Institute for Excellence in Writing, though I think they’re changing their name to Structure and Style, something, something.) What are some of the curriculums you use? (If you wanna tell, no pressure: P)

@lonathecatDon’t worry about it! The school year is starting to get to me too.
Nice! I have a couple of friends who use Teaching Textbooks, but I haven’t heard of IEW. When I was younger, I did almost all Sonlight, but now the only thing I have that’s Sonlight is their psychology course. I have a different provider/publisher for everything else, Art of Problem Solving, Wilson Hill Academy, PA Homeschoolers…some others I’m forgetting the name of. My brain turns off for the weekends. π

@mischievous-thwapling*wipes brow, panting* Oh boy, I’m very sorry.Β There was a long period when I wasn’t on SE (busy, you know), then last night when I was I didn’t get to respond to you because my little munchkin of a sibling snatched the computer from me π
Wow, that sounds really awesome!Β And yeah, after I finish this course with Sonlight I think I’m going to switch to This Is My Father’s World.
Yes, mine does to.. π

@lonathecatOh, those munchkins. π
Nice! A lot of my friends use My Father’s World and they really like it.

@mischievous-thwaplingYes, they can be quite annoying, but all in all they’re lovable π
Yeah, my brother and little sisters actually use it too. π
RANDOM QUESTION TIME!! (You know how much I love these)
In your opinion, what’s something that people do or wear in an effort to make themselves look cool, but ends up making them seem ridiculous?

~Corrie Ten BoomOctober 25, 2020 at 6:32 pm #121039Lona
@lonathecatCool!
Oh yes, bring on the randomness. π
Chokers, definitely haha. I don’t see what’s so fashionable about restricting your airflow. How about you? Do you have something that comes to mind in terms of people’s failed efforts to look cool?
Now here is some randomness for you: π
Creamy or crunchy peanut butter?
October 28, 2020 at 11:30 pm #121180Mischievous Thwapling
@mischievous-thwaplingYes! Chokers!! So silly!Β Hmmm… I suppose when people wear really revealing or tight clothes that look super uncomfortable and un-modest just to be edgy or noticeable.
Oooooooh, that’s a good one.Β *taps chin thoughtfully* I suppose it depends what I’m eating, but crunchy. How about you?

@lonathecatAnnnnnd it’s been 3 weeks wow, I’m sorry. Man, life has been a lot lately haha.
Yeah, that bugs me too. I can understand close fitted clothing for sports, since you don’t want all the flappy fabric getting in the way, but for anything else, it’s just like, why?
Haha yes! *victory dances* My family has this war over creamy vs crunchy peanut butter, and so every time we first meet someone we ask them creamy or crunchy, and then depending on their answer, I might run up to the other siblings screamingΒ “HA! One more for team crunchy!” or you know, if it’s creamy, my siblings would scream about that. Anyways, I am a loyal team crunchy member and you just earned me one point, so thank you. π

@mischievous-thwaplingLol, you’re completely fine. I get it; I’m sorta drowning in a wave of homework, so I’m not writing/on SE as much as before. π
Exactly! For sports, I’m fine with it.Β To show off? :/
AHA!! Lol, I’m so glad you just got one more point, then!Β GO TEAM CRUNCHY! IT SHALL PREVAIL!

@lonathecatAh I’m sorry that’s no fun. Do you get a thanksgiving break?
AYE! RAISE THE CRUCHY FLAG, ME VALIANT SOLDIERS, AND TO BATTLE WE SHALL GO!

@the-fledgling-artistHello Lona! I have only skimmed what has already been said, so many pardons if I end up asking questions you’ve already covered. Haha. What are your thoughts on music? If you like it, what kind? :D<

@mischievous-thwaplingThankfully, yes! Do you get a Thanksgiving break as well?
OY!! RIDE FORWARDS, FELLOW CRUNCHY WARRIORS!!
Would you like me to ask another random question, wouldΒ you like to ask a random question, or are we finished with random questions???

@lonathecatI think music is absolutely wonderful. And I’m far from a musician myself, but I love screwing around on the piano. More often though, I listen to people who can actually sing/play haha. π
Do you play an instrument?
Yes, thank goodness. At least for most of my classes. Hard to get out of everything when you’re mom’s your teacher. XD
Earlier this day I went on venture to the grocery store…and upon my mother’s order… fetched a jar of despicable creamy peanut butter…I am sorry my crunchy brethren! Forgive me! We have suffered a loss today, but tomorrow shall be better!
Oh I’m always down for more randomness. π
Say there is a meal: main dish, side dish, beverage and dessert. You get to choose whichever foods or drinks you like to fill these categories, but they must all be different cuisines. For example, Italian main dish of lasagna, Chinese side of spring rolls, Swiss drink of hot cocoa, Mexican dessert of flan. What would your meal look like?
