Eames, it's my senior year...F 9387983572098 AP courses; I'm just taking AP Gov't & Politics. This is for Honors World Lit so it really doesn't matter.

i took 5 ap classes my senior year, but all of my teachers were cool as shit and never gave us homework or any work for that matter. ap govt and politics is easy as shit i talked, slept, and never payed atetention at all in that class and i got a 3 on the exam, if i would have put any effort into it at all i woulda got a 5...its an easy test.
