After an Unnecessarily Long Break...

1. Yeah...about that.

2. It's Monday, so it's the Starting Nine. But I felt it wasn't right to start without acknowledging my long absence. Between vacations, Band Camp, and the start of school, it's been busy. Hopefully, I can get this started again with some degree of regularity. So let's get to it.

3. As just stated, school is back, and with a vengeance. I can't remember starting off a year with more reading. I think all my classes are going to be pretty interesting - that is, the actual class time. The work is going to suck. Greek History will be the worst of the five, but that still won't be too bad. Although my Honors seminar won't come close to topping the mind-blowing experience I had last year, it was a nice change of pace to have a discussion today that I fully understood. And my 3 Comm classes will be really good - one is with a reporter for the AP, and the other 2 are really small and ask a lot of thought-provoking questions. We'll see what I think about them when I'm reading every night until 3 in the morning.
