Lucky guys. My exams don't start until like June 15 
But. I only have to write 3. University english, university math (functions and relations...save me...) and general science.
Stupid general science. I'm in Grade 10 now and can't go into a specific branch that I want to (ie physics) until next year.

Hehe. I wish I could still be doing functions and relations, instead of this:

Oh...my...god.
I don't think reading all that was a good idea...now I'm terrified of university haha
Random thought - Wikipedia is great for explaining math. I remember a few months ago I found this fractal generating program, and it turns out I needed to know f of x graphs so that I could enter a whole bunch of functions and it could graph them and export some really cool graphics. I asked my math teacher (turns out he's an idiot...) when we'd be learning them instead of just normal quadratic parabolas and he said it's not part of the grade 10 curriculum. So, determined (read:bored) I went on Wikipedia and it explained them really well. And I made some sweet random fractals baha.

Man, in a way I wish I could go back to when AP Exams were the hardest thing I had to look forward to.
But all of you are graduating in the next week, right? Where are you all going next year?

Baylor!
oh--today, I got a call telling me that the Navy would put me in ROTC if I went to Carnegie Mellon--I say "thanks guys--that would have been nice to know, oh, a *month* ago..." (probably wouldn't have gone, but still!)

hahaha, crazy Navy. Cool for Baylor. Did you apply to Carnegie Mellon? That was one of my top schools for a while.

I can imagine, but now your mention of salmon is making me crave crackers, cream cheese, capers and smoked salmon. In that order, all on the cracker. Salmon is yummy. Salmonella not so much.

oh man...Keats, are there any White Spots near you? If so, go ask for their Atlantic Salmon Burger. It's 5 bucks and absolutely amazing.

There are no White Spots in my area, unfortunately, but two weeks ago I flew out to Alberta for my grandpa's 60th birthday, and when I was in Leduc we went to one and I ordered just that burger (not too much of a coincidence, if there's ever anything seafood related at a restaurant I order it 
)...oh man, was it ever amazing.
