So Much Blogging, So Little Time [I]

I've been pretty busy the last couple days. Yesterday, I started school, and I'm officially an upperclassmen now. I don't think this is a good thing. It means a lot of AP classes and standardized tests and college visits. I've already visited a few schools (and have my heart set on Kenyon) so I'm kind of ahead of the game on that. These are the classes I'm taking this year:

• AP US History
• AP Language and Composition
• Latin III
• Global Scholars (like an IR Class) III
• Statistics and Pre-Calculus
• Anatomy and Physiology
• Photography II
• Gym

I think I might be insane. I had my first APUSH test today (second day of school, what) and I have another history quiz on Friday. Tuesday next week I have a Latin test on 300+ vocab words that I was supposed to study over the summer and my first Anatomy test. Oh, and daily quizzes in Latin that're worth 30 points each.

Yeah, I think I'm definitely insane. 

But I like it. Mostly because today my friend and I got a letter from the lovely people at the Jacob's Light Foundation thanking them for the donation we made from our school last year. Jacob's Light sends care packages and organizes letter campaigns for the soldiers overseas. Since both my friend and I have loved ones overseas right now, it's a cause that's important to us. We sent them $125 to fund care packages and hope to sponsor a letter campaign sometime in the next few months.

In writing news, an English teacher I only ever talk to in the halls (but who knows about my projects) stopped me in the hall because she wanted to know how my writing was going and encourage me to enter some contests. I love it when that happens. Now, I'm going to end this blog so I can work on part II (yay, series!) because otherwise this blog will be really incredibly long.
