I got second place in the fifth grade spelling bee. I am still mad that I got second place and it isn't because I lost it is because the girl I went up against they gave her the easiest word to spell and me the hardest. She won as a result and I lost
The first class I had back in 11th grade was a typing class and I'd be done with my typing assignments like a good 20 minutes early and would have nothing to do. Teacher didn't like the fact that I didn't do the ASDFGHJKL method with my hands and said the way I was typing was all wrong. I let her know that I type faster than everyone the class and even faster than you.
As for what was my best subject. I was pretty decent in English, excelled at social studies/history, science I was alright in but the one subject I struggled with was math and I still am pretty bad at it. The subject I excelled at the most was computer repair in 11th grade and computer networking in 12th grade. My high school gave students the option in 11th and 12th grade to go half day to BOCES to learn a trade of their choice (Computers, Auto Mechanic, Hair Salon, Cooking, and a bunch of other things). When I was 6 my father got us our first PC back in early 1990 and it cost just shy of $4,000 bucks. Getting that computer at such a young age made me fall in love with computing. Because of that and when given the option in 11th grade I decided to do the BOCES thing and now I computer repair for a living.
One final note. I was in special ed until 5th grade. I was taken out of said class in 4th grade for science and English. When 5th grade came around I was put in a regular class room but taken out for math. Like I said before I am pretty shitty at math. My middle school had a psychologist and I would sit with him once a week for 30 minutes and just talk about stuff. In 7th grade I was given an IQ test by him and the school administration in which I scored just shy of 140 which would put me in the gifted category. I've been thinking about getting another IQ test done
