Over-achieving Babble
No more fall term. It's been a "journey," I'd say, but I'm not sure I want it to end. At NMH we get three Last Days of School each year. So Last Day #1 is done, and I'm finished with math until Spring Term next year, when I take Precal and Chem. I will miss my English class, but my teacher told me that she reccomended my taking Junior English in the Fall next year so I could take Senior (ie AP) English in the Winter of Junior year and then again in Senior year. And next year, I'll also take AP US History in the fall, and AP Latin in the Winter. So If I have no time for anything next year, you'll know why. Three APs in Junior year is good, though, but I still don't get to relax in Senior year. I'll go to Greece on a seminar in the Spring, though. And if I keep doing a play every term, I should be OK for college. But I don't know where I'll go. University of Washington would be both fun and worth my time, but I don't know if people will say, "oh, Julia's only going to UDub?" Will UDub look impressive enough? And, more importantly, should I care? Should I stay on the East Coast? Should I go abroad? What culinary school should I go to? What should I do with my life? And how long do I actually want to spend in school? Highschool until 18, College until 22, and then another few years at Culinary school. I'll be 25 before I'm a normal person, and holy crap, that's OLD. But considering how the next hour will probably take forever to pass, I don't worry too much.
In an upcoming entry, look for my entire English Final project--the vignettes and maybe the Pirate Map, too. Once I finish this entry, I will get right on formatting that one, in fact, because it's break and I have NOTHING TO DO.
I'm going to see Harry Potter on Sunday with Nicole and Sasha. I am quite excited. Then I have to go to my grandparents' and be a novel and unchallenging grandchild who they can be proud of. Not that I'm callous, but when they see my grades, progress reports, English final and parts in the plays, they might send me some money. And I am really needing money, for Christmas presents, for clothes, for necessities. I sold my Algebra II book back to the bookstore, this afternoon, expecting perhaps $30 of the $60 that I paid for it used. I got $6. Six dollars. So lame.
ETA: I've been cast as Alice Beane in Titanic. It's the "best part" quoth everyone, but it was the one part I didn't want. I will have to resign myself to playing a middle-aged, midwestern gossip and rich-person wannabe. It is a major role, and I do appreciate it, but I have so much trouble putting aside my dignity.
