<p>I just found out there was a tennis team in my HS! I’ll do that!</p>
<p>It seems easy to get on sports teams in your schools. In my school, it’s incredibly hard to get on a sports team. You gotta be able to run a 5k in 16:40 to make the XC team Varsity.</p>
<p>@Political, Actually I should say I’ll try to get in the tennis team. the coach to the team was once
my coach in elementary school. I have not been playing tennis seriously but whatever I do is good enough - that’s the impression I have.</p>
<p>@jorvik, welcome! I see your school put algebra II and trig together. My school put Trig and preCal together. I’ll take algebra II in 9th and Trig/PreCal in 10th.</p>
<p>My school starts in 2.5 week. Next week is the band camp. We need to be there from 8 - 5 everyday.</p>
<p>ok my first band day is over. It’s fun. the teacher is great. but I’m exhausted with nose bleed. 
And some of my good friends are not doing band in HS, I’m disappointed.</p>
<p>Ifax, how many miles do you have for July? I think I ran close to 100.</p>
<p>I haven’t been keeping track of it. I’ve actually been pretty lazy this past few days. I haven’t ran since like Friday.</p>
<p>Well, I’m starting school in about 13 days…it’s going to be tough, especially since my parents made me do IB. :/</p>
<p>nomatterwhat, I’m also doing marching band this week. Just came back from today’s practice. Our teacher is very cool. Today we marched almost all day. It’s like a millitary drill. I never knew marching band was like this. It’s fun though. I forgot to put sunscreen on, I think I got sunburn.</p>
<p>Wow, you guys all seem so smart . . . and I thought I was smart. o.0</p>
<p>But anyways, my freshman schedule is as follows;
English Honors 1
Algebra 1 (I’ll admit it, math is definitely my worst subject)
Honors Biology
PE 1
Theatre 1
Spanish 2 Honors
Fashion Design and Merchandising</p>
<p>EC:
Drama Club
Debate Team
Bridge Builders
Thinking of ASB later on (My school doesn’t allow freshmen on ASB . . .)
Fashion Club</p>
<p>Wow, now I feel so unimpressive compared to you guys, haha! By the way, have any of you read The Pearl by John Steinbeck, or perhaps Anthem by Ayn Rand? I’m reading them for summer homework, they actually aren’t that bad . . .</p>
<p>^^ I hate getting sunburn. I sometimes get burned while wearing sunscreen and one time I was out for like 30 minutes without sunscreen and I got a horrible burn. Is anyone else really fair skinned and gets really bad sunburn?</p>
<p>I have read those books PotionsMaster. Steinbeck is a literary god, while Rand is a hypocritical libertarian.</p>
<p>
I totally agree!</p>
<p>What are the best books by Steinbeck?</p>
<p>Grapes of Wrath, of Mice and Men are my favorites.</p>
<p>oh I like the red pony!</p>
<p>@ThePotionsMater not to sound stupid, but what’s ASB? Animal-Student Baseball? Another Sexy Balloon?</p>
<p>^ its associated student body</p>
<p>does anybody know what “Key club” is about?</p>
<p>And I wanted to come here hit the 1000 mark. But Political got it. I noticed s/he got the 800 and 900 marks too. :D</p>
