Part two.

I promised!!

This has been a really strange school year: I took the PSATs (189 composite…above average but not my goal)…and I did two AP classes (but didn’t take the AP tests), and I did Sonlight Core which was REALLY FREAKING DIFFICULT, and I did a LOT of music…and I was a total bum. So my average day has been get up between ten and eleven, shower eat and school, leave for rehearsal at 12:30, get back around three, and cram in school between then and six.

I want next year to be fun! I want to have time to do extra things like debate team and community music groups,  I want to score over 200 on the PSATs and do well on the real SATS, district orchestra, etc etc etc…oh so many goals

AND I ONLY HAVE TWO YEARS LEFT AT HOME: HOW CRAZY IS THAT?

So I’m doing summer school! And I am actually going to get up at a decent hour and do work!

I will not be done with literature till July, unfortunately…and then I will start next year in September.

In math I am doing a course that is designed to take three semesters. If I do three days a week I’ll be done in September and can spend October reviewing basic algebra and geometry before the test. Then no more math till January! Which clears up concert season.

Science I just have to finish out the end of the year…half a test, a dissection, and an experiment and I’m done! Then next year is physics.

I am teaching myself psychology for fun out of an old college textbook I bought at a garage sale.

I am continuing Latin and Word Power Made Easy (My vocabulary book, which I ignored for the better part of the year, actually did it, adored it, and felt like a fool) and starting back with French II. Oh and logic on DVD.

I am getting a bunch of books from the school and library to read for fun school, especially history because history is the one subject I’m not any good in at all.

Is fun school an oxymoronic phrase? I mean that I’m getting educational books to read because I’m interested, not for credit. Meanwhile, Ben has decided to breed a blue raspberry.

I’ll let you know how all of this goes next week.
