finals week

Very stressed for finals. got to study hard. trying to keep straight A's . . . Just Kidding about all A's but have to get atleast a 3.0 GPA. so can't blog much. Plus I have a more difficult time then other kids because I take seven classes and most kids only take six so there is more pressure on me and definately more stress. Really have to study my Chemistry class because thats the worst grade I have and it's goin to take more time for me to understand.
