Forgotten, but not yet gone

After scaling the treacherous plane known as finals week, I've reached the pinnacle and become an official sophomore. I learned to internalize my trepidation about failing at life/exams, and succeeded in intimidating many study partners with my calm and collected manner. But, after the last number two pencil was tossed aside and every lecture hall was emptied, I felt truly accomplished. It looks like all the laborious hours spent in AP classes really did pay off...wait, the only thing I gleaned from rhs was college credit credit.

I sent in a graduate survey for the high school today after pondering what could have "enhanced my high school career," which I decided was replacing most of the student body with people who weren't failures at life. However, this didn't seem rational to put down in the few lines alloted for free response, so instead, I wrote "Rockwall is sure a swell place to grow up! I enjoyed the time spent in the public education system, even though most of the staff probably didn't know me. Keep up the good work! :D"

The past few hours have been spent fiddling with iTunes and relishing the gift card I got to use with the music store. I'll be sure to keep my onion well oiled over the next few weeks, since I will be free from school work for a month. And now, egg nog. Life is good.
