Heh. It's funny; I never even came across this post till today, while going back and reading my earlier posts on the forum thanks to the restored search engine...

Anyway, I'm in the same grade as you-- 11th grade.

And if you feel like it, go ahead and e-mail me to tell me the name of the aforementioned friend. I'll probably recognize the name, at least, and I may even know her on a personal level (or through internet chat) if she's been to nationals.
