I already hate one of my fucking teachers for next year see every fucking summer we have to do a fucking summer reading project. but this is only for the smart people(like me) who take duel fucking enrollment. i have to read a fucking retard a book called The grapes of wrath and it fucking sucks each chapter is like 50 fucking pages long and it is retarded. and not only that i have to do a fucking report that is three to four pages long and it has to be a newspaper. And that project has ten fucking parts to it. but then on the other hand with my history class i am happy for the project because it is not as fucking retarded as the english one. and with the history project i have four choices and two of them actually sound cool. i am out on summer brake and they give us all this FUCKING work to do.

This is totally unacceptable. I haven't seen this much red in a while. Just stop doing this That's the price you have to pay for taking advanced classes so live with it and stop complaining

You don't like reading?! I usually average 1 to 1.5 books per day during the summer, and that's just on my own.

Well that's just ridiculous. I don't particularly enjoy summer reading (mostly because the books are not my choice, and usually not the genre I prefer), but I still do it without complaint.

Guess what? I read The Grapes of Wrath last summer for one of my summer reading books. It's an excelent book about the struggle of the migrant worker/farmer during the post WWI into depression days. The book was great and captivating. John Steinbeck is a great author. You have very little literary experience, if you mock one of his books and call it "censored retard censored book." It's ironic that such a "bright" student that is dual enrolled, could be so insolent.

If you think length of chapter determines the quality of the book, I suggest you take some ritalin.

it is an alright book but it is still retarded because the types of books that i like are fantasy. and i enjoy reading.

If you enjoy reading, then it might be good to try some new genres. It's always a pleasant change to get a bit of variety in your literary diet.

I saw the Grapes or Wrath movie and like it. Also, this is nothing compared to some of the summer homework 'censored' I used to get.

I'm in college now to, and I'm taking ALL of my books up to Massachusetts with me (thank god I have an alice pack ) I should post a pic once I have a chance.

So is it official then? Are you graduating this year?

You need to read the "Getting into classes" topic more often; yes, it's official; I will be graduating Spring of 2007

So, what does that make you now? A sophmore or a junior? (oh wait, me forgets that most other people have finished this school year) A junior or a senior?

Well, I had talked to my guidance counselor about that; technically I'll be a Senior once I finish English III, so I'll be a Junior the first half of the year, and a Senior the second half

That's pretty sweet. Will you be bannished by the senior class or accepted as one of their own? I'd be pissed if some wipper-snapper skipped a grade and ended up in my grade (@Kerm: ).

Everyone thought I was a senior last year, and most people thought I was a junior (some thought I was a senior) this year, so they probably won't even notice

I love reading, I just hate having someone give me a book to read... >.<

My books are almost always fantasy or scifi, and usually are 500+ pages long...

I read approx 65 four-hundred page books a summer. cause I can read 200 pages an hour.

I sense a split to yet another brag about your smarts and other skills thread.

Same. I read the latest 800+ page Harry Potter in 4:18:26.

You mean that people thought you were a senior when you were a freshman? That's almost unbelievable...

You people amaze me with all of your speed reading. The best I can muster is 100 pages in an hour, and more often it's something like 60 pages in an hour.

its the same with me chipmaster but if i get ahold of a good book i will read it for a long time with breaks for meals and bathroom.
