I know I did alright. It's just that "The Waiting is the hardest part"

I won't know 'til 2.00pm tomorrow. I've got the day off, so I'll be on all day (most of it, really) to make up for my absence!

Aspirin? A couple of good beers works a lot better...

I'm only 17! I can't drink beer (but I have expirimented with it at one point in my life).
My English test went OK, I made an 80. I made a 97 on my computer exam, and an 83 on my Theatre exam.
Here are my report card grades:
Student Tutoring/Mentoring: 98 A
Math: 92 A
Science: 93 A
English: 86 B
Computer Class: 94 A
Theatre: 92 A
I did it! I hear a jangle coming my way!

17 huh, man, I don't even think I've been "carded" for about 30 years. Ah well, that's too bad, but in 4 years...
Well, I'll have a couple myself then to toast your success! Congratulations on the good grades!

That's just great Jake. What an attitude change from last year! You are to be highly commended for that.

It's like my Economics and History teachers from last year told me, "You are more mature from last year". Plus, I was stressed out a BUNCH last year. I was dealing with this girl who was sending me mixed signals like no tomorrow, and I was so wrapped up in her and not school. This year, I don't have a crush on any girls at all, so what's in MY path to distract me?
John B. -- on the note of Timothy Leary, he couldn't help Pete Townshend after he asked The Beatles and Bob Dylan. They call Pete "The Seeker", with John Entwistle on a 4005 MG!
