Maybe we went to some of the same ones!


I went to Meadowbrook in Lachine, Montreal, Quebec, from kindergarten thru grade 6. (When my uncle John went to that school, they called in Mentalbrook. But it was, and still is, a normal school. :P )


I went to Queen of Angels Academy in Dorval, Montreal, Quebec, from grade 7 thru grade 8. (My orthodontist called in Queen of Demons when he treated a bunch of us from that school after Halloween after they broke their braces on certain types of candy.)


I went to Lakeside Academy in Lachine, Montreal, Quebec, from grade 9 thru grade 10. (I call it Flakeside... it used to be Lachine High School, aka Latrine High. :D )


I went to Beaconsfield High School in Beaconsfield, Montreal, Quebec, for grade 11, and went on the Europe trip! (Someone wrote in the bathroom that BHS=b*****s Hoes Sluts, but that's not really true... it's way nicer there than in my previous schools!)


I went to Thousand Islands Secondary School in Brockville, Ontario, for grade 12. (They were originally going to name it Thousand Islands Technical School, but didn't like what the initials spelled so hence, TISS. :D )


Now I don't go to school at all... might go back, tho.

Homeschool from age 1 to 16

Billy Ryan High School in Denton TX for two months

Homeschool from 16 to 20 when I got my GED.

I had been accepted to Bethel University in 2004 but couldn't afford it, I had showed the work I had done in chemistry to the Department Chair, Kenneth Rohly, and he said for the first year I would only be doing lab work because I knew the material. I had sat in on a lecture he gave and I was answering questions correctly that even his own students got wrong. Too bad I couldn't afford the $16,000 a year after the university would pay $8,000.

I am Hoping to go to a Technical School next year, either Saint Paul College or Hennepin Tech in Minnesota. I plan to take Electronics Technician's courses, at a cost of $5,000 a year, and hopefully I can continue my education in chemistry after I have a paying job.
