I am super excited for this coming school year! I spent my summer doing advance reading so that I can have some background and general knowledge about the subjects that I will be taking. I actually want my school year to become more productive and meaningful by making sure that I will join different school activities and school clubs as well. But, just so you know, I felt more excited after seeing the list you posted here so I would like to thank you for that. I hope you will continue to make our life convenient through your posts.
