 Your conditions are worse. But I'm still doomed. I've finished AP Euro, but I still have LA. I've already read the book, have found the definitions, and given examples of 19/25 literary terms. I just have to do what my teacher calls a "3x4". I don't know why though. One 3x4 consists of - ~ Synopsis - Summary of a chapter ~ Key Passage - Example of theme, important moment, characterization, or revealing quote from assigned reading (Revealing quote?  ) Next to that box it says - 'What this reveals' and 'Commentary.' Under that, is the same thing. And then... ~ Connection "Text-to-text, text-to-self, text-to-world" -Repeat x8- The teacher didn't even give me an example so I'm not sure what I'm supposed to do. :/ It's so confusing, I can't even explain properly. Lulz. |

Unless I read wrong (oh the horror) all I have to do for summer is read 2 books, which we'll be tested on. One I already finished, the other I read in 8th grade.
And uh... I have faith in my memory, I guess? >>;

Lulz. I have to write a paper rhetorically analyzing a passage out of Life of Pi for English, and I'm going to have a test on the other English book, How to be Good. That's only for AP English IV. |

Irrelevant Rant:
I'm not sure if the Olympic ceremony aired in America yet, but if it has, did anyone else see the Taiwanese team being called China Taipei? I mean last time I checked, that generic Olympic flag wasn't our national flag, nor was Taipei the entire country.
It's not China Taipei; it's TAIPEI, TAIWAN. China already has it's own team and it's "Hong Kong China" team. It's not enough that the population of Taiwan was mostly exiled Chinese Citizens who weren't even allowed back into the country until a few years ago, but now they're not recognized as a country. Instead, it received it's Chinese panda "peace" gift basket. If I didn't fear getting arrested I'd make my own Taiwan or Tibet shirt to wear to the event.
I'm just gonna root for America.

My parents complained that politics and such shouldn't have been mixed up with the Olympics... I mean, I don't really get it myself, but... .__.;; |

The Olympics' opening is awesome. I'm watching the guy with the torch being carried around the stadium, unraveling the scroll that COMPLETELY circles the uppermost part of the "Bird's Nest."
OMFG THE TORCH IS LIT! TOTALLY EPIC! I've like, never been this excited about a sporting event. xD
Edit: Gujju, school starts on the 20th for us. And like, school ended May 26th. It's usually about three months exactly, but we're starting about a week earlier this time (with extra time added to Christmas Vacation and somewhere else).
