I have finally figured out the reason why I took AP Physics C this year. I took it for the thrill of having the challenge of doing something really hard, working my butt off in agony trying to understand it (and going crazy in the process), and finally understanding the stuff near the last minute to do well enough on the tests. Not to say I did well on today's test (yikes!), but I love the adrenaline rush of struggling through a problem and getting it in a mad scramble in the last few minutes. So, I guess I am not a masochist--just some sort of weird, nerdy adventure seeker. Anyway, today's test was fun in that sense, but I don't know how well I did.. Ahh!!!
It's really hard, on the other hand, to find motivation and happiness in Calculus. I feel pretty bad that our whole class has pretty much given up on doing homework during class to sit around and talk about drama or college applications. I think Dr. Wagner is extremely annoyed at us, but he's probably used to this kind of atmosphere around March for second-semester seniors. And, I am completely behind on my homework since I've missed so much school in the past few days... (though All State and 1's at Festival are totally worth it, yeah Sumi?? :D). So, I'll try to work harder and hope that I don't crash in Calc!
I had a whole lot to say earlier this week, but I think after the stress and anxiety that has just passed, I have forgotten everything I wanted to write (oopsie). So.. hang tight. Hopefully, I can find something more interesting and insightful in life to write about soon.
