School...

So yes, I have officially started school. I am doing 11th grade Abeka American history, where I am learning for the 11th time how Christopher Columbus went east by going west and landed on the shores of a New World while sailing in his three ships, the Nina, Pinta, and Pina Colada*. I very obviously haven't gotten to the part on run-ons in my ACE English, which incidentally is the best English curriculm I've found. Math...well, I'm trying Abeka Algebra 1 this year...we'll se how that goes...so far, it's better than Christian Light (no offence to those who wrote/use it, but I am scared of your brains) and I refuse to do Saxon...so far so good...elipses are what to use when you're not sure what to use...you know...
ACE chemistry. It's already up to my elbows, and that was just the introduction. Thankfully, the video guy has a sense of humor (or the script writer does), and since when have you heard of schoolwork being funny?!
I will probably also do a half-credit elective in public speaking (from ACE).

So that's what I'm doing. Why don't you leave me a comment and tell me what curiculum you are using, and, more importantly, if you would recommend it? I would recommend everything that I'm doing, so far.

* I am hereby offering 10 worthless points to the first person who can tell me the correct name of the third ship, without looking it up! Leave me a comment and tell me about it!
