the american dream and then some
coming back here is such an experience....reading all the entries, all of yours and all of mine.
what have i done with myself in 6 months' absence?
i am now more than halfway done with my junior year of high school. i'm currently enrolled in these classes:
Advanced Placement U.S. History
Accelerated Pre-Calculus Honors
Physical Education Leadership Honors (i'm not kidding)
Anatomy and Physiology Honors
Cultural Geography (graduation requirement i missed out on)
Chemistry I Honors
English III Honors
German I (ich lerne die Deutsch sprechen!)
i've also been employed at the local grocery store in town for the last 8 months as a cashier. the green smock and white shirt look is what i'm sporting.
one week shy of having my license for a week, i get into a car accident. i hate blind spots.
the colleges i am thinking of applying to this summer:
university of illinois at chicago
loyola university (chicago)
northwestern university (chicago)
university of chicago
emory university (atlanta)
stanford university (california)
yale university (connecticut)
princeton university (new jersey)
harvard university (massachusetts)
university of the philippines
macallister college (minnesota)
i don't think i will work during the school year come fall, or at least, not more than one day during the weekend. my schedule for next year:
Advanced Placement Biology
Advanced Placement Chemistry
Advanced Placement Physics
Advanced Placement Calculus BC
German III Honors
English IV Honors
American Problems/American Government
Physical Education Leadership Honors
i remember thinking 'college this....college that'. and now, i think, 'oh, my god, it's this summer. it all comes to a high this summer.'
fear has this metallic, tangy taste in your mouth, when you feel everything bearing down on this one moment. i hope i get the big, fat, 'congratulations! we want you and we'll give you money to pick our school' letters.
school, college, relationship, standardized tests, the car, the job...it's the american teenager's life.
and i'm living it. and i'm not sure if it's right. but i'm going with the flow and hoping summer gives me the conclusion to the 1.5-year long run-on question i've been asking.
it's so good to read all your entries. they made me smile. :).
