School started two days ago. So far, everything's great. None of my teachers have shown signs of being jerks, and I have lunch with a ton of my friends. The classes are all full of old and new buddies, some of which I haven't hung with since middle school. Physical Science is so far a breeze, mostly because of that book I was reading (and am still working on,) An Elegant Universe. I posted something about it here, it's about string theory. Very helpful.

Homework is already starting to pile up, but that's OK. The real killer is swim team. Practice right after school until 6, sometimes 7. Hard sets. Lots of technique and endurance building. The land drills are harder than I remember. I was in better shape second semester last year, apparently. Only a few laps totally kill me.

Not, of course, that I don't love it.

Girls at my school are so...I don't know. I can't think of anyone that I'd start a relationship with. Flirting is great. Conversation...is OK. Only a few closer female friends really converse with me. Which is cool.

Some of my friends are already ready for summer again. I can't imagine.

I think everyone must get a little out of shape over the summer. Myself included. (I'm going to get SO fat without P.E. :S)

I found that they got more and more interesting as we matured. I dunno.. I'm picky like you are.

I just had a big comment typed out and IE crashed. Thankfully you're cool, so here goes the shortened version...

I'm hoping my schedule gives me the same friends as it did last year, because honestly I'm not really looking to make new ones. It may sound shortsighted, but this is my Senior year, and I don't want to spend it starting all over again.

Everybody complains about sports workouts, and its considered "uncool" if you actually give your full effort, but it feels so good in the end, despite all the sweat and...pain. Hahah I guess swimmers swimmers don't have to worry about BO.

I'm in the same boat about "potential relationships." It's hard to find someone cute who isn't either a complete douche or a complete dummy, or who isn't taken already :-/

Not much I can say other than that it's good you're having a good time, this year. Hope it stays that way.
