Here's a big update of what happened this weekend. There was this huge 29 question long monster Physics AP Homework due on Friday midnight, and I had no freekin' idea of what I had to do. I called up my friend, Nestor to see how he was doing, and he was as bad as I was; hence he decided to come over because we thought that working together might help. We kept on trying repeatedly till about 8 pm, and then we just gave up. We both were stuck at about 35%, and there was no way we could have made it to a 70. Thereafter, we just said "SCREW IT, THIS SHIT IS IMPOSSIBLE!" and went to a party. When we came back (which was around 12:30 am), we noticed that the homework was now due on Sunday midnight, instead of Friday, which gave us 2 full days to work on it. The next day, which was Saturday, we went to a giant Physics Workshop at the Townview TAG (Talented and Gifted) School, but the real adventure was getting there! Me and Nestor, despite our best attempts, could not figure out where in the world this place was. Took us like 2 hours to get there, whereas the original journey was supposed to take only about 25-30 minutes. We also went to this other place, where the people thought that we were the volunteers that were there to help them, so they gave us free lunch! Anyways, later that evening, our forces were joined by David Gilchrist, another genius from my Physics AP class. So, the 3 man army of myself, David and Nestor started to work with a determined head, a head determined towards cracking the "Homework". 12 can of sodas, 2 BIG bags of Popcorn and 40+ hours later, we all ended up with all our answers correct!!! Hoo-ray!
End of the day, I was happy, David was jolly, Nestor was dancing, and Mr. Cameron was staring open-mouthed!

Yes, Townview is so hard to find, and in a terrible neighborhood as well. Did you go there by bus or rail? I hated walking through that neighborhood from the rail station when I missed my school bus. Did you notice the motel right across from the school? My seniro year they built that tiny fence around it because someone wrote an article about that hotel and how it should be torn down. Like that fence makes a difference.
