Because even though I'm going for a medical degree, I'd also like to know about stuff like polysci and history and literature and things.

I know! I'm going to look at astronomy and things like that because I think it's important to know a little about everything. I don't want to focus solely on one thing just because I think it's important to be well rounded and open-minded.

Yup. A couple of years ago, I went through a college course selection book and went "okay, I want to take that class, and this class. . ." and highlighted it all up

LOL! I did something SO similar!! I printed out a paper with all of the classes offered to freshmen and sophmores at my school and put Xs next to all the classes I wanted to take. After I did that, I realized I'd have to be a lowerclassman for four years and do summer classes to take all the subjects I want!

Which makes summers cool, but you're always roped into grading papers.

Oh, my friend has to do a VERY similar thing! It's actually fun to watch them grade because you see what the teachers really think about their students. *snickers* I'm so bad!

I'm copresident of our Amnesty International and in the leading council of our Liberal Union thing.

Woot!! Go you! What is the Liberal Union thing exactly? I can guess what it is by the name but the only Liberal Union I can think of is the Dutch LU from the 1800's.

In high school I was part of 'Young Democrats' and 'Open Alliance Club'.
