Most Intense Year Ever..... In a Good Way (PART 1)

HEY EVERYONE.

I'm back again. And this time I am here to tell you about my unexpectedly difficult junior year. So far it has been filled with rehearsals (as always!), books, departures, balloons, vacations, dancing and more!

This is sure to be quite an eclectic post, but stay with me!

My Schedule
So this year I have had so much homework every night. But I'm not complaining. It keeps me busy. And when I say busy. I mean busy. I spend every night doing homework until I go to bed. Now, that doesn't mean I study all day, every day. I take breaks! But when I finish my homework, I go to sleep!

Also, basically every single day I have SOMETHING after school. Monday- Boy Scouts. Tuesday- Musical Theater Class. Wednesday- TYC (Youth Council). Thursday- Rehearsal. Friday- NOTHING (thank goodness!). I'm not complaining, though. You know I love staying busy!

My Classes
Let me give you a breakdown of each class and my thoughts on them so far:
AP English Language and Composition- This is the best English class I have ever taken. My teacher rocks. The material rocks. My classmates rock. It's rockin', if you ask me. But as always, it's always the class that you love that gives you the most homework! Although I have never had so much work in an English class before, I believe that I will learn so much more than ever before. Isn't that how it works? Hardwork = Knowledge?
Physics- I. Love. Physics. It is math + science + the world. That equation just makes me smile. It is every subject I love squished together into a wonderful explosion of vectors.
Play Prod- I think you've heard about this class before! My drama class is fantastic as always. I have a blast, and right now we are working on an ORIGINAL PLAY! We are working on the premiere of a new play, so stay tuned for that!
AP Calculus AB- This class is the typical math class I love. I am one of those kids people think is weird because they love math. I just do. Don't question. We have the most amazing teacher right now. He is so passionate about the subject that you can help but want to learn with him around. I know that sounds cheesy and all.... but it's true! So far every class has been a dream, doesn't that sound too good to be true? Well, it is. My teacher got offered a new job to train teachers at the school district and he accepted the offer. We get a new teacher in two days and nobody knows who it will be..... I'll let you know how that goes.
French 3- AHHH! This is a class I don't talk about too often. This year is my favorite year in French so far. I mean, they have all been good, but I have so many friends in this class because everyone who has stayed with the language for three-four years is in this class. The combination of friends and my fun teacher make me think that this year in French will be a year to remember!
Journalism- I am loving being Assistant Editor-in-Chief! It is so different than being a writer and now I understand the stress the editors felt last year. I have to keep track of grades, edit and post articles, crop pictures, change the website. Despite the hard work, I love it. The staff is great this year.

Overall, as you can see, my classes this year are GREAT! I couldn't ask for a more perfect schedule! I'll be back soon with another post about my extracurriculars! This year is looking to be an exciting one and I can't wait to share it with you!

One Geek,
Grant
