 Hi Jacee,

 JC> Jenni, or anybody who wants to write back.

 Well here I am... if you don't mind me butting in.

 JC> It's pretty hard to find someone to write back to on this senior chat
 JC> program.

 Yeah... I heard blue eyes & blond hair is a MUST in order to get anybody's
 attention at all on this net... hehe... =>

 JC> Let's see, I'm 17 and in the 12th grade at San Leandro High, near San
 JC> Francisco.

 It's my turn to confess, I s'pose... emmmm... I'm 18 and go to college in
 Calgary, Canada.

 JC> I'm not into computers but this seemed kinda neat and since it's our
 JC> Physics project to write and hopefully get mail back, it seemed like a
 JC> good  idea.
          
           Physics?  Does this mean we'll have to talk physics from now on?
            'kay... emmm... Johnny fell asleep during one physics class, and
            Miss X throw a book at him at 3.00*E8 m/s and the book ended up
            embedded onto Johnny's back.  Assuming the classroom is a vacumm,
            find the recoil velocity of the book and both Miss X & Johnny's
            reaction to this incidence.
            (You may now start the question and have 30 sec to finish it)

 JC> A little about myself.  I'm blue eyed, blond hair like many of you think
 JC> of all California girls.

 I have brown eyes <how boring> and black hair, 5'9", 105 lbs... as if
 anybody cares... I'm Chinese (from HongKong), speaks fluent English,
 Catonese & Japanese.

 JC> I do surf occasionally but my main interest is soccer, skimboarding,
 JC> and snowboarding.

 I don't do surfing but windsurfing, rather.  Since I don't live by any
 coastal area, I'm restricted to windsurfing on lakes.  I own 2 boards and
 3 sails, one of them (boards) is a fanatic board and it costed me well
 over a grand when I brought it in summer '91; the other one is a
 beginner's board which is the one I started out with.  Too bad the season
 almost over now, I still think I that haven't gone enough times this past
 summer.  All I want for X'mas this year is one of those skates that I can
 put on my board so that I can windsurf during the winter.  Oh well, since
 they cost an arm and a leg, I guess I shouldn't be setting my dreams too
 far away from reality... bummer.
 
 I also like X-country, downhill skiing, squash and orienteering.

 JC> The snow is really excellent around here but unfortunately, I live 4
 JC> hours away from the snow.  I also live one hour away from any decent
 JC> beach to surf at so I don't get to go skimboard any time I like.

 The skiing season should be starting around November this year.  There are 2
 resorts that I usually go to: Sunshine Village & Lake Louise, and they're
 both near Banff and it takes about 2 hours to get there.  Pretty convinent.

 I always dream about living in a lodge beside West Palm Beach one day... if
 I could only win the lottery for once...

 JC> (Do you know what skimboarding is? If you don't, there's a good reason
 JC> to write back.)

 Gee... you're really jumping on my nerves (no offence)... if you don't tell
 me what it is in your reply, you know what would happen... emmm... let's
 see... I can send you crank mails (NO! that wouldn't work on K12, dummy)...
 emmm.... anyways, I can't think of any other torture right now, but I'm sure
 that I'll come up with somethin' shortly.  So don't you dare to think about
 not writing back

 Sayonara...
