<p>I guess I can see what you mean, my only thing is I love my work load and how I spend my days.</p>
<p>I hope I get into the top 25 schools… My parents dont know anything except harvard…</p>
<p>@ATPmolecule: Not trying to brag, but same thing here. I mean, I have a decent amount of homework each night and plus I play four sports but I still have plenty of time for a social life - especially on the weekends. Heck, sometimes I feel like I have too little to do on Saturdays, lol.</p>
<p>Yeah, my social life is a little diminished though, but I don’t mind too much. There aren’t many people who get me anyway.</p>
<p>We had our first major APUSH test the other day, apparently we are receiving a huge curve on it because the highest score was a 62. Why did I sign up for this class?</p>
<p>Because you wanna be the very best, like no one ever was!</p>
<p>Maybe it’s just my school. We’re in the bottom 30% for test scores in CT, so my school is known for having large AP course loads to make up for the other ~150 courses.</p>
<p>@Artsy: I’m turning in my 1st FRQ today and my 1st DBQ Tuesday. Let’s just say that neither of them are going too well.</p>
<p>Is anyone taking the Oct. 6th SAT? If so, you’ll be joining me. I’m nervous about it, but I feel prepared.</p>
<p>Ugh I just got back my first quiz for Precalc H BC</p>
<p>41/50. </p>
<p>My teacher keeps trying to tell us that and 80 or above is very good in this class, but none of us are buying it.</p>
<p>Got a 99 on my first exam in Calculus 3! Yippee!! :D</p>
<p>Nice, bio! By the way, how’s self-studying Latin going? The idea intrigued me when you first brought up and I’ve been mulling over doing the same as of recently.</p>
<p>I missed all my favorite shows this week because of too much work!! But it all paid off in the long run :):)</p>
<p>I hate Latin III…with a passion.</p>
<p>I haven’t been on here in forever! What’s up fellow C/O 2014ers?</p>
<p>My physics grade doesn’t want to budge from a B+. Other than that class my grades are going well. Gotta do more community service though.</p>
<p>Hi Evan :). Not too much- just finished up an essay re-write & about to make some food and do some other stuff. How are you?</p>
<p>@ATP: I’ve wanted to take Latin since I was little, but my school doesn’t offer it :/.</p>
<p>@Muta: Do you like physics? It’s the one branch of science I don’t like…</p>
<p>@ATPmolecule</p>
<p>I’m currently in Honors Latin III. So far it’s a difficult challenge but I like the course.</p>
<p>Congrats biovball! I start my math class tomorrow.</p>
<p>Do you guys still have time to read/have recommendations? I’ve decided I’m going to take time out to de-stress everyday (in a productive fashion ;D ) so I want to get back into reading.</p>
<p>Sadly no, I basically have no time to read, though I am hoping to catch up a bit over thanksgiving and winter break. Um, not sure what genres you read, so here are some random recommendations…
- Freakenomics (or the sequel if you already read it)
- 13 Reasons Why
- The Maze Runner
- Dinner at the Homesick Restraunt</p>
<p>I read Freakenomics and Maze Runner and really liked them, Maze runner more so for the plot than characters. </p>
<p>I have Thinking Fast and Slow but I can’t get into it. :S </p>
<p>It’s weird but sometimes I feel awkward reading YA fiction. I used to read so much in middle school/elementary/even Frosh year and now I just feel strange when I do it, maybe cuz no-one around me really reads. </p>
<p>oh well! Thanks for the suggestions and I’ll definitely check out the other two as well :)</p>
