Hey Guys!

    Hello fellow readers! It is already halfway through 2016 and time is passing by quicker than the snap of a finger! I know I haven't really posted anything since last year, so I want to catch you up! Last Fall, I was accepted into the Paulding County High School Academy of Science, Research, and Medicine for my freshman year. Also known as the Magnet program, it is a program where every year 60 8th grade students are accepted in the "Academy" based on their Science and Mathematics scores, their personality, and level of discipline. When going through this program, if you finish all 4 years, you are qualified to say on your college applications that you were in a program of higher learning. You also finish your first year of college courses if you pass the AP exams, so you are basically killing two birds with one stone! Metaphorically, not literately. This is blog is a violent-free source. During these 4 years, you have to complete up to 10 or more AP courses, choose (and complete) either the Healthcare or Biotechnology pathway and pass with all A's and B's (obviously). It is basically a program for future scientist and we are guaranteed to have rigorous courses that no one else in the county can have. I am now entering my 2nd year and I have 3 AP classes to complete! That is about 9 hours of AP exams at the end of the year!
   Outside of the Magnet program, I joined the Marching band and it was very interesting. We had a lot of issues, but at the end of the day, we all grew as a family. My section, the clarinets, especially grew upon each other. I also got into the highest band in my school, playing 2nd chair bass clarinet! My sophomore year (the one coming up this fall), I was accepted into the highest band again, but since I am planning on volunteering at the hospital this school year, I am not doing Marching band. It is alright though, I still have my family in my band class!
   Okay, let's get to the good stuff. So since I am not very busy this summer (other than making 760 note-cards for my AP World History teacher), I am planning on writing at least two articles each  week. I really need your help though. I think that if I get your input about the articles that would be great! I am not really a "professional" at making blogs and knowing where you guys comment, (even though I am suppose to because of my high-tech generation!)  but if you would like to make a request or ask a question, please email me at Rue-jordyn@live.com or JordynMCarney@gmail.com. I would really like to know who is reading, so I know I am not writing for my own health! I mean that in the most positive way possible.
   I hope that whoever is reading that you enjoy the future articles!
Peace and Love,
Jordyn
