I'm also worried about getting into AP English. I know that if my english teacher Ms. Garrison (who loves me, but who would not send me to AP if she didn't think I could do it) doesn't allow me to go I could always get an override, but having to get an override would seriously annoy my parents. I'm supposed to be good at this stuff. Writing is one of the only things I can do even semi-well. I'm serious. I do well with history and humanities type stuff as well, but writing is really where I'm at. And I want to be an English major. What kind of English major can't even get into AP? Tonight I have to write a little paragraph about why I want to/deserve to be in AP English. I made a promise to myself that I'm going to try as hard as I possibly can this semester (and write a very good paper to submit to the AP English teacher) so I can prove to Ms G (who, like I said, loves me, but thinks I'm lazy) that I deserve to be in that class. I have GOT to get into that class. Failure is -not- an option.
