Wait, is it actually the end of April? I've been measuring time in unit assignments for the last few months, so my internal clock is kind of messed up. That's a pretty good microcosm of junior year for me, and probably for a lot of people - surviving week by week. You can't approach a yearlong work-intensive commitment any other way.
That said, junior year wasn't really the hellish nightmare I had expected coming in. Sure, it was more of a commitment than sophomore year was, but I didn't find myself completely overwhelmed at any point. That in and of itself is a success; I said in my first blog post that I hoped to finish the year with 60% of my original sanity. I'd say I'm currently at about 85%, and with the AP Physics test the only thing I'm not confident about, I think I can meet that goal. Other successes this year are keeping A's in AP French and Physics, which were the two classes I was most concerned about in August. There's nothing really in the failures column either, but that's only because nothing truly important has happened yet. I hope that column stays empty after my 3 AP tests and finals week.
As far as this summer goes, it'll be golf, golf, more golf, and looking at colleges. I'm getting the chance to go to Auburn and Emory next weekend, as well as play golf at a PGA Tour host facility. As for senior year, I'm FINALLY done with high school French. So, I get to take all the courses I never had space for - AP Euro and political science.
