junior year seemed like hell in the moment, but looking back... it was the most intense year of my life yet, and i forged numerous friendships in that fiery inferno.

btw, junior year was the best for me in terms of course rigor and gpa, but i know i'm the exception to the rule

(i'm current senior, and it's seriously pretty a pretty sucky year so far. i've had like three half hour episodes of general sadness and regularly think about how in less than a year my friends and i will be scattered across the country. enjoy junior year while you can. ignorance is bliss.)

1. Live life.
2. Cut sleep, Ace classes.
3. Study well.
4. stock up on sleep on weekends.
5. buy a bottle of nodoz.

It's not that bad for me right now, except Reading Literature requires an buttload of reading on almost a daily basis.

I promise you that senior year will be better. Maybe not better in grades, but a lot richer in hope that there will someday be an end to high school.

You know, maybe we all need to complain once in a while. It's kind of a way to stay sane. So here's mine:
Next Thursday, I will have 4 tests, and I only have 6 classes. I need to read 50 pages in my Psychology book and 50 pages in my Biology book. My grades are quasi-OK now, but I have no idea what will happen after all the tests put in. (I am a senior)

I rather go back to Junior year, actually. It was better.

There is no amount of money in the world that would make me go back a year in high school.

The only thing that sucks about my junior year is that AP Calculus isn't as easy as I'd hope it'd be.
