I think I've seen this before, but... Why Nerds Are Unpopular, from nex0s. (I note that I _started_ going to school - rather than continuing to be home-schooled - in 5th grade. I was 9, everyone else was 11-ish. Ok, technically, I started in 4th, but it was a year I wasn't even there as often as half-time implied. I was at least actually half-time in 5th grade)

dglenn has a quote of the day today about scholarship and geekery.

Wow, that's cool. I didn't know you were homeschooled . I've actually thought that it would be near-ideal for kids to start out homeschooling and then transition to a place where they can interact with more & different people, have more resources at hand, and such. It's nice to know some people are allowed to do half-time while making a transition, too.

My mom appears to have had lots of contacts and such, because she managed to make _lots_ of things happen that I'm not sure most people have happen. That, or she's just very persistant. ;)
