So yesterday I looked at the calendar for the first time in a while only to realize there are 5 days of summer left. Panicking, I went through my backpack and pulled out the untouched Extended Essay (4000 words? fuck), some history reading, and about 5 other assignments I forgot about.
Oh shit, school is backkk
But hey, I am finally a senior! Everyone talks about how great senior year is, so I will try to enjoy it as much as possible. I just can't wait until second semester when I will be done with college apps and all that fun stuff.
Looking back, I can proudly say it's been a very productive summer:
1) Got through the internship well. Received some excellent recs ;D 2) Studied for SAT IIs. Fucking history was the worst book I've ever had to go through. 3) Finished writing college essays for the most part. 4) Visited colleges. I actually just got back from California yesterday, after taking Berkeley/Stanford tours. I think I might've seen evanthebouncy at Cal but I was too scared to go up and say hi. 5) Had a nice time with family/friends.
Goals for upcoming school year: 1) No StarCraft. 2) Edit college essays, I think they still need some work. Also finish the early action application by mid October. 3) Study more for SAT IIs. Fucking history. 4) Go to bed early. I guess this kind of relates to my goal #1. Throughout my entire junior year I never went to bed past 1:00AM because I would always stay up to get some StarCraft session in. Then the next day my economics teacher would get very very mad when I fall asleep in class.
A video taken by my friend in the dreaded Econ class (Don't know how to rotate it):

5) Play lots of tennis. I didn't get to play as much last year because I was busy all the time but definitely going for the number one spot this year  6) Have a successful year in Leadership. Been in it forever, it's finally my chance to take charge.
Goodbye Summer 08, you have been good.Last edit: 2008-08-29 12:54:46

Ouch, I'm glad I never did anything like that.
Yep a summer of the poorest weather imaginable is nearing it's end. I doubt I'll even be able to tell the difference when winter kicks in. Still another 2-3 weeks till I go back to uni so not to bad on that front ^_^Last edit: 2008-08-29 05:19:37 |

| ouch, sounds like a lame summer. Seems like a lot of TLers in High School spend their summers doing homework. I dont understand that at all. Summer is suppose to be for fun. |

Being a senior is all about seeing how tightly you can control your apathy, while managing to keep your GPA from falling below a desired level.

| College is a blast. The first week of college you are really rigid and just read/study a lot because you want to do really really good but then you just end up hanging out and playing SC with friends. =) |

This is the one thing i have been struggling with the last 3-4 years, it's fucking impossible. I can not for the life of me get myself to sleep earlier, the last couple of years i usually went to sleep at 3-4am and now it's hard as hell to get back to a healthy rhythm.
And yeah, no more summer, Uni starts Monday for me ;_; |
