^ Doesn't it take a while for you to get there though? By train, it's like.. 2 hours.
 QUOTE(Tymel @ Oct 21 2006, 6:12 AM)  Isnt Dubai in Africa? Is Africa really what it seems like? How many of you guys are planning on living in New York your whole life? I believe there's a Dubai in the United Arab Emirates in the middle east. I'm probably not staying in NYC unless I change my plans of being an engineer/astronomer, which is highly unlikely. I want to move somewhere with a NASA research center. Probably Pasadena because it's home to NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory and it's where my dream college (Caltech) is located. |

^Big plans. Nice.
It takes me about and hour and a half. I can either take the G or the Q from the 7, but I don't mind. Besides, most days I get a ride to school from my dad because he works around there. |

Hahah that's so cool, I live like 5 minutes from Pasadena. We can switch places oh yeahhh. |

Haven't you been to the beaches before?  Roosevelt Field is the awesomest mall ever! It's Hot Topic actually has CDs, unlike the one in QC. |

The SHSATs are only available for NYC residents, but if you change your address to your dad's, you could be eligible. But you can only take the test in 8th and 9th grade, I believe.
You could try talking to your guidance councilors though. |

Hahahaha, Tech.
Hunter College High School owns all of you, literally. It's the #1 public high school in the U.S. and that's where I go. =] Stuyvesant is where all the people who couldn't get into Hunter go later on. Sorry, but it's true. I live in Flushing. |

Specialized high schools are better. And just so you know, Hunter High School (not the JHS part) isn't as good as Stuy. If you've actually checked your high school handbook, you'd see that Hunter's stats aren't as good as Stuy, Bronx or even Staten Island. People from Hunter try to get out of there for high school. I'd know because my little brother goes there. Besides, not all people want to get up at 5 in the morning just to get to school on time. |

I don't get up at 5 to get to school on time. I get up at 6:15.
And no, people don't try to get out of there for high school. Out of about 200 people per grade, not even 10% left for another high school when I was in 8th grade. |
