In Pennsylvania (and other states, I guess... Hell, I don't even know if it's a PA thing and not just a New Hope thing) students have to work on a "Culminating Project" throughout high school that is due Senior Year. You're supposed to get experience doing something that you might want to pursue as a career or study in college or whatever. It needs 20 hours of field experience, a journal, a research paper on a related topic and a formal presentation. It's supposed to be a big deal and shit. I bring it up because Nikki mentioned procrastinating, and I think I perfected the art of procrastination when I finished said project- which we had four years to do- in the final two weeks of senior year.
