822

<p>^ that sounds pretty normal. :)</p>

823

<p>sorry about the spacing…
I tried editing it and it didn’t change anything</p>

824

<p>Thanks @rayna3!
I was just curious
so are y’all excited about becoming juniors?</p>

825

<p>Yes, most of us are excited. I know I am fairly excited (I mean, if I have to go to high school I might as well make the most of it).</p>

<p>Incoming Freshman: <a href=“http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/high-school-life/1128458-high-school-class-2015-a-21.html[/url]”>http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/high-school-life/1128458-high-school-class-2015-a-21.html&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

<p>There’s one for incoming Sophomores. I’m too lazy to find that link.</p>

826

<p>@thenerdofawesome: Of course! Finally, we get to become upperclassmen! Then again, it’s going to be very hectic compared to this year’s workload…</p>

827

<p>CAN’T WAIT TILL BEING A JUNIOR OMG AND I LIKE THE WORKLOAD IMO KEEPS ME FOCUSED. like legit i’m so so so so so sos o so sos o so so sos os esxcited i wanna skip summer tbh</p>

828

<p>Oh thanks giatns4210. I get it now. That is a good thing now. But my school is very disorientated. So I mean maybe they did it for a reason.</p>

829

<p>I am so EXCITED to be a junior! Like I’m finally a upperclassmen again, and it also means varsity sports. Which is exciting but scary. </p>

<p>And I can actually make college visits to my friends colleges without it being suspicious.But I already know where I wanna go, but I have to look at other places. I dont want to get my hope up and be let down.</p>

830

<p>For this summer: summer classes at CC (maybe), driver’s ed, reading, summer AP homework (ugh), studying for APs next year, volunteer work (maybe), job (if I can), SWIMMING, start self-studying for Psych, study for PSAT/SAT, and find scholarships. Yay, summer where I could actually do stuff! :)</p>

831

<p>Were suppose to be looking into scholarships already? I thought we were suppose to start the whole college thing in the spring of our junior year.</p>

832

<p>I’m starting to look for scholarships… I don’t know if we’re suppose to… I’m just weird like that xD</p>

833

<p>Haha I’m helping my rising senior friends with choosing universities to apply to.
“So Hanana, what do you know about [insert college here]?”
“Do you think [insert college here] is a good fit for me?”
… is being incorporated into a lot of our conversations, haha.</p>

834

<p>ahahah… I’ll probably be helping my friends with their college searches too. :P</p>

<p>I finally found my DS charger and started to play Animal Crossing… I found it to be boring :frowning: I was upset.</p>

<p>Anyone starting/started to tour colleges yet?</p>

835

<p>i state my opinion to my friends. i mean i could of start college visits already but i feel like its so early. I feel like im getting ahead of myself. Im also deadset aganist Syracuse. I go up there all the time, so I know the campus very well. </p>

<p>Is anyone saving for college yet, not for tuition but like money to accesorise your dorm and all the late nights.</p>

836

<p>Meh, if I had a job. I make like ~$1 a day off youtube ads lol. = $365 a year = one poster and 1/4 of a laptop. LOL</p>

837

<p>screw it…I have to study all summer long omg not even looking forward to summer ■■■ ;S</p>

838

<p>It’s obvious we’re the best class right? Freshman are a very mixed bunch, some have evolved from their obnoxious 8th grade ways, others still follow them. Sophomores…idk, i kinda just finished being one. I hope juniors have a good rep!</p>

839

<p>I just want to go to Yale for Japanese O_O</p>

840

<p>I designed an experiment that is going up on the final space shuttle!!</p>
