Did you graduate high school through the typical process?

I would add a poll but I don't know how. Anyways to the point, Did you do 4 years of school everyday? Did you graduate early? did you do some form of alternative school? What's the low down on your high school education?
I do a program called twilight that meets 3pm - 4:30pm. We do one class at a time and do packets for the class. A years of a class takes anywhere from 1 week - 3 months depending on your speed and just the amount of work in the class. Through this program I do home instruction of sorts where I do all the packets at home and come in to take tests. I am on my last subject, government, mixes of awful and boredom but I will hopefully be done an graduated within the next two weeks. Nicely enough I get a diploma and not a G.E.D.
Also, why the hell is filibustering allowed? Did you know after 3 hours of talking the speaking official can just start reading from anything, a phone book, a cook book, anything. That's unproductive. Not that I think our government is the pinnacle of efficiency or fairness but that is ridiculous.

I was kicked out of school during the 2nd semester of my sophomore year of high school but then after working my ass off and being homeschooled I graduated 1 semester early.

I didnt even get my high school diploma. I dropped out in my senior year because high school was soooo stupid. I went ahead and got my G.E.D. when I was 17. Worked for awhile and then went back to school. Got my A.A. business transfer degree form a Community college, then went on to get my Baccalaureate in Business Management from Washington State University.
Your high school diploma doesn't really mean shit. The public school system at lower levels is fucked. Especially where I live. Can't speak for the rest of the U.S.

Do not think I was trying to shit on G.E.D.s. I wasn't I just said it was nice because I wouldn't have to worry about facing any sort of discrimination for it.

I shuffled through high school in 4 years. I did about 1% of the homework and a whole cunt ton of drugs. I don't feel like I learned anything useful. Now, I am a PhD candidate in physics. I attribute that to hard work and determination.

I have a good friend that was kicked out of high school and he is also a PhD candidate in physics now too.

Yeah. I've been in day school for most of high school. I've only been doing this kind of schooling for the last semester.

Well, I made the duck blue because I'd never seen a blue duck before and I wanted to see one.

What a funny guy.
edit: If I took unneeded offense my bad, I've been a bit stressed lately.
