My little sister is in 6th now. Because 7th grade is when you start junior high here, she is still in elementary. I AM NOT READY FOR HER TO BE IN JUNOR HIGH! X'O

My school district is weird. We start Middle School in fifth grade and we start High School in ninth. Elementary is K-4. I am going into fifth grade and I am super excited/worried about it. I am excited for lockers, new teachers, etc., but I am worried about having to get up earlier.

Same here. I have to get up at 6 i the morning to get to school at 7 and last year I had to get up at 8.

Oh. For me I'll probably have to get up at 6 to get to school at 7:35 as I live about a mile away and I'm riding my bike there. Last year I would get up at 7:30 and the bus came at 8:30.

Wow, you guys had late school starts! For me lats year, I started school at 7:30. Bu I wake up at 5 every morning, so it doesn't matter.

I usually wake up (AKA Mom comes in and wakes me up) around 6:45. I just get started on my school a little bit after that. Tuesdays I wake up earlier; at 6:30 to go to my homeschool group thing.

l don't really know why everyone's so exicted for school. l have ADHD and Synesthesia, which makes it really hard for me.
l envy you people who are homeschooled. You are lucky, not having to go to school.

Wow.....What must it be like then?
And yes, l'm kind of glad that l don't have to go to "real" school. l might have ADHD, it's never been confirmed, but it runs in the family, all my sibilings have very short attention spans, inculding me. l don't know if l'd ever survive, in school, sitting still for that long.
And l should proably go to sleep now.....

Do you not like having synesthesia?
(August 29, 2015 - 6:33 am)
Hard question.
l don't exactly dislike it, as it doesn't affect my normal day-to-day life. But l do percive the world difefrently. Sometimes l just mention something, like "That paint is the color of zeros" and of course no one knows what l mean, because only l see the world that way.
It's kind of frustrating, having to explain this stuff to people, that's usually why l don't mention that l have Synesthesia.
l'm fine with it, it's just something that l've always had to deal with.

I'm going into (in) 6th grade... Middle school starts in 7th grade...

I'm not sythesthetic, but numbers do have colors for me. When I think of a number, I think of a color, but when I think of a color I usually don't think of a number. However I think I sort of understand what synthesthesia is like. Just to let you know that 1 person might understand you.
