I loved school all the way through high school. I picked language as a fav: took Spanish throughout (6-12 grades) and Italian senior year.

Other favs: Trig (hated geometry though), Debate (learned that I could debate both sides of any issue with enough information), Future Shock Literature (hated reading back then but enjoyed SciFi classics), 10th grade English (read at least 2 Shakespeare plays), Home Ec: Sewing (yes, really, I liked it), 11th grade Civics (political current events AND political history... learned about Machiavelli!).

I hated gym. I didn't want to get sweaty in the middle of the day and not be able to "do" my hair. But I always pushed myself (was very competitive at the time) and sweated, a lot.

AP Chemistry and Genetics/Microbiology were my faves.

Tried to major in Microbiology in college, but Organic Chemistry convinced me to switch to Finance.

Female human anatomy. I tried to study as much as possible. I thought about it constantly and marvelled over the differences. as a college student I can honestly say I spent ALL my waking hours thinking about it.
