184/365 (Ah Life...)

Even as I stress about my 4 AP tests and 5 SAT IIs, I can't help but think, "Why the hell do I do this?" Besides college apps and such, is there really a point to any of this? Will I care about the fact that 6 of 9 Supreme Court justices were over seventy in 1937 in the future? Will it matter if I know all of the steps in the Krebs cycle? Will I need to know the chemical formulas of methane, ethane, propane, and butane? Chances are, not unless I major in a field involving such knowledge. -sighs- I just really don't get it. I love learning about this stuff, don't get me wrong (it's a hell of a lot better than Euro), but at the same time, I can't help but wonder, "Would I be taking this many TESTS if I didn't "have" to?" And would other people even be taking this many AP classes if they didn't want to boost their GPA? It just doesn't seem... worth it.

On another note, Roosevelt definitely had too much fun playing with his alphabet soup during dinner... FDIC, NRA, CCC, AAA, FERA, CIO...
