We did finish A Midsummer Night's dream! It was great! I loved it! My first Shakespeare to actually read! And now it's Skellig, like I said before. Skellig is really interesting and mysterious! We didn't do an over view like we have the with others so I have no idea how it ends. It's about a ten year old boy named Michael who moves into a new house with his parents and new little sister, who is sick. The house is falling down and so he helps his dad repair it. In doing so he explores the garage and meets his next door neighbor. A girl about his age named Mina. It's a cute story that's been a nice change to read after Shakespeare. Skellig being easy reading and whatnot.
Math is going well! I'm still on schedule! If I keep this pace up I should finish a few days early actually! Maybe I can get ahead and finish a few WEEKS early! Whoop whoop! Have a few weeks of a math break before we start geometry!
Have I mentioned that I'm trying to squeeze four years of high school into three? So I can graduate in 2012. The plan is to work summers. So my sophomore year starts in May, like a week after my freshman year ends. Sophomore year goes from May to December('10). Then Junior year is January to August ('11). And finally Senior year is back on track with the usual school year September to May. :D Then comes college! Ahhh! Woot!
I'm thinking about going instate. I didn't really want to originally but my life is here...so why should I leave it? It's a pretty awesome life! My friends are here (excepting the ones in Maryland of course), my parents, my sister, brother-in-law, niece and nephew doggies... etc. Plus Oklahoma itself isn't so bad either! I don't know if I'll end up here permanently. You know with a family and stuff. But college here sounds okay now.
Unless I go to Sarah Lawrence of course! It's this new college I found out about today! It's in New York! They don't take ACT or SAT scores there! And you sit down with your professor/counselor and make up your own major! It sounds cool! It's based on the idea of pulling away from the usual idea of college and going more freely. And they have like a 58 acceptance rate too! Unlike Harvard! Do you know what their acceptance rate is???? 7!!! And Yale isn't much better either! 9!!!! Insane peoples.... :p Well that's all for now! (I've also run out of goodbyes. haha. fail. I'll just re-use I guess.) TTFN! :D

This is such fascinating reading!
