    Oh, I'm sorry >< I'm thankful my parents don't push me that hard, but sometimes I feel there are times when they don't push me enough. I can get pretty lazy when it comes to schoolwork. >////>

    Aww, thanks so much! ^^
    I was actually pretty surprised myself since I didn't know I was that good of a tutor! Sometimes, I have no idea what the students are asking, so I end up having to use Google! Hahaha, but I'm still glad I was able to achieve a high rank. :D

    Yea, it's true. Although, in America, they're more relaxed about it, but it doesn't been they aren't obsessed with studying! And the competition between asians is high, so it just makes them push us harder. >.>

    I have heard stories about the studying-obsessed Asian parents and I wanted to think it was just a stereotype that annoying people on the internet spread around, but the more I talk to people the more I discover it's true. ><

    Me neither! My mom's asian though, so she believes in studying, studying, studying.

    How can it be a waste of time feeding hungry people? I can't understand that.

    Well, my local church did a lot of food gathering for the homeless, so I mainly got involved with an organization that made sandwiches for homeless people. I made lots and lots and lots and LOTS of sandwiches.

    Yeah, I know, but that doesn't change the fact that my high school did not have a program like this. What I meant was that I would have loved more opportunities to do stuff like this back in the day. XP

    It's not a program my school has. I had to search all over for the program. It's separate, like an online extracurricular activity. ^^

    Oh, it's not a program my high school has. It's just that high schoolers can join it. xD

    Sounds like a fun program! My school didn't have anything like that. Although I did used to get asked to help if we had a transfer student join the class, heh.
