Facebook...Myspace...but in the beginning, there was Mindsay. Welcome back.
I move into my dorm in less than a month, and today, for the first time since I ve been driving, my parents set me a curfew. Really weird timing, and kind of pointless, it s 2:00 unless I m staying somewhere besides home. However, if they don t expect me to be coming home, I can come home at anytime.
College! I hope college is as easy as high school. By no means am I implying that high school was easy. Some classes took a lot of effort. I got straight A s and took every honors and AP class Halls offered, and I got the highest GPA possible at Halls High School, but sometimes it was really really difficult. By no means am I implying that I am a diligent hard-working student, just that sometimes I had to do weird stuff. At the end of the semester in Modern World History, I had to make a 100 on the final to make an A. Mrs. Thomas taught that class, therefore making a 100 on a test was pretty much impossible. I was a junior when I took that class, and Herbie was a senior. Seniors take the final before everyone else, so I got Herbie to copy all of the questions on the test and give them to me in exchange for me making him a folder to turn in. I took the questions, answered them ahead of time, and then memorized 10 pages of history to regurgitate onto the final. I got a 100.
I would really like to get straight A's in college, but it s not nearly as important...I guess I ll see if I ve driven myself to be an academic perfectionist or if I can still be realistic enough to know that it doesn t hurt me at all to not get straight A s.
