Want to get through the first month of school with little to no formal writing? Avoid AP Chem and AP Euro; substitute with Physics C and AP Government. (Corollary: AP English is acceptable if you’re willing to confine your writing to 14 minute blocks.)

Want to avoid calculus teachers who can’t teach calculus? Take Physcalc.

Want to make sure you don’t keep falling asleep while reading Crime and Punishment for English? Take Fitness Walking in gym and take your book with you, and do the readings a day in advance.

Want to claim a Saturday morning to yourself? Do well enough on the SATs in the spring so that you don’t have to take them again in October. (Corollary: Don’t do the Columbia Science Honors Program unless you’re already antisocial enough that you’d have nothing to do on a Saturday morning anyway.)

Since this entry is pretty much to-the-point, here are some other points I feel compelled to include:

• The Almighty College Board has informed me that I have reached the level of “AP Scholar with Distinction”. I’m not sure what that’s worth exactly, but it sounds important.
• It seems the influx of questionable poll votes has been curbed. I’m still not sure of the cause, but I took some preemptive measures to attempt to solve the problem, and one of them worked. At some point in the future I might try to figure out how to appropriate the votes.
• My body hurts. This is probably because my shoulders don’t like supporting my backpack (which I recently updated, thank you). Yesterday I also was due for a couple shots, which while not a big deal left both of my arms sore. Interesting note: the building in which I went to get my shots is numbered 666. Notable politicians who have a campaign office located in said building? None other than Democratic candidate for Congress John Hall. (Be warned, a mysterious figure will appear on your screen if you click that link, and he makes noise.) The distinguised candidate has some dumb picture of Bush on his door saying something about John Hall giving him a headache. I think Mr. Hall is a bit too fond of himself.
• Random thought: all work weeks should be four days long.

So that’s what I’ve got to say. Now to go off and work on college stuff, or calculus problem sets, or something.
