Very impressive...
I love everyone's enthusiasm... here's a bit more of mine:
1) I am taking 10 courses this year (even though there are only 8 slots)
2) Next year (my grade 11 year), I'll be taking:
a) Anthropology
b) AP Biology
c) AP Chemistry
d) AP functions
e) Grade 12 Data management
f) Grade 12 Programming
g) Physics (only academic because my school doesn't offer AP physics)
h) Psychology
i) Sociology
3) I alphabetised the above list.
π) I have a pi button on my keyboard (as well as an e button...)
4) I added a pi to this list
5) I hacked the school board's internet restrictions...
6) Even nerdier, I reported the security flaw to the board!
7) I did an analysis on video games... and decided that they were an inefficient use of my time. That's why none of my nerdinesses are game-related.
8) I use the saved time to program.
9) In my 'play time,' I 'play' around with imaginary numbers.
10) I know what all 78 buttons on my scientific calculator, as well as the corresponding 156 2nd and 3rd functions on them do.
11) I have 7 different versions of windows, 13 variants of linux, and two of mac OS on my computer, and they're all legal.
12) I administer/maintain 7 different websites.
I took 12 courses this year (5 in summer school)
You're taking Biology in Grade 11? I took Grade 12 Bio in Grade 10.
Psychology my school doesn't offer, which is a shame. But they're offering 2 psychological type courses in a college nearby that I can go to as a co-op program next year. Anthropology is a true waste of time though.
I also know what all the buttons on my scientific calculator do too. Including the other functions.
Lastly, I never said I was a nerd. The above stuff is for programming.

Oh, I also keep a notebook of the complexities of life and the universe. You know, philosophical questions. Such as time, the length of the Universe, etc.
Come on, you actually ponder that?
The universe is a rapidly expanding sphere expandin at the speed of light, since nothing can go faster. Since the universe is 13.7 billion years old, its radius is l3.7 billion light-years long, or 26.4 billion light-years in diameter. Duh!

We don't know that.
And I doubt we ever will.
Please leave a message at the beep.Offline
Science needs to focus on making rockets that pass the speed of light, or getting worm holes working. Then I can go visit the moon or something.

If we made things go faster than the speed of light, and we could travel in it, we could time travel. HONESTLY!

WHO THE HECK WOULD KNOW THE POPULATION OF NIGERIA!!!!!!!!??????????
Sorry just had to get that off my chest.
Who would know that lake whatchamacallit (forgot the name) borders Burundi instead of The Democratic Republic of Congo?! That was my question. By the way, the population of Nigeria was about 150,000 in 2008.
