ShannonAlbert.com - June 2009

- he says "having a GPS just makes life funner."
- he has a browser folder to save his favorites that's located in the browser toolbar so he can drag a page to it when he wants to save it. Bonus points because he sorts it according to the sites he likes best.
- he says "not everything has an address but everything has coordinates!"
- he creates Word documents complete with WordArt, formatted text and clipart that he searches to find just the right image.
- he completes his work in class so quickly that he's now gone through more "free time worksheet packets" than the first grade class did the whole previous school year.
- his favorite show is "How It's Made."
- his pre-test scores at the beginning of the school year are higher than they are supposed to be at the end of the year.
- his favorite part of piano lessons is doing flash cards.
- he insists on reading non-fiction only.

Saddest part is that he sounds almost exactly like me 25 years ago (except instead of a GPS, it was a TRS-80 I was obsessed with and my favorite show was Mr. Wizard's World). Poor thing. Destined for a life of book smarts but no common sense. :)
