When is it going to end?

I am not Wonder Woman, I do not have super speed or super smarts. I am just a regualr human teenager who is trying to get everything done in my life. So why is it then that teacher's think we can do everything? It's like they expect us to have no other life besides school and homework. Yes I understand they are just preparig us for College/University but still. I have had so much history homework it could last me a lifetime, and for what? So I can basically learn the same thing I learned last time just in a different wording? I have been a very busy person my whole life. What with swimming 11 hours a week, youth group 2 days a week, cuba meetings on sundays, somehow finding time to hang out with my friends, working every weekend for almost 10 hours, going to school and homework on top of that. Somehow in all of that I also find time to sleep and eat. So seeing as how my schedule has always been quite hectic I have been fairly good at time managment and getting everything done in order of importance. But this is way to much. I think that I am going to crack if something does not stop. The only problem....I can't stop doing any of these activities.

What don't these two have?

Sam Tsui and Kurt Schneider have become Youtube sensations. Making the homepage numerous times, being on Ellen, Oprah, The Bonnie Hunt show, just to name a few and recieving millions of viewers overnight. Both grew up together in Blue Bell, Pennsylvania in a small suburb outside of Philadelphia. They both lived down the street from one another but did not start becoming really good friends until the end of highschool as they were both involved in the chorus and music scene. Kurt, being a year older than Sam, graduated and went of to Yale and Sam independently made the choice to go off to Yale as well in the following year. Kurt had already began working on some music stuff before Sam arrived and when he did they began collaborating together. Both boys grew up under a large musical influence. Kurt always loved music and he taught himself piano throughout high school and guitar in college. Sam's mom was a high school music teacher, so he grew up in a household with a piano and where the arts were really appeciated. From a young age Sam sang for fun and by high school he decided that he wanted to perform or sing in some way.
Together they have perfromed multiple covers by some of today's most famous artists such as Lady Gaga, Owl City, Britney Spears and many more. Sam and Kurt have even come out with two original songs together, Don't want an Ending and Start again. They are continuing to work on even more original songs together and are continually uploading new videos.
Check out their Youtube page where you can check out not only their videos but also links to other artists pages who they have done collaborations with or who Kurt has worked with helping them produce a video.

Rise and Shine! It's 200metre Fly time!

Butterfly. One of the most difficult strokes known to all swimmers, and maybe even mankind. Now 200 metres of butterfly is just downright ridiculous. Majority of competitve swimmers have trouble swimming two lengths of fly let alone 8. Me however, I'm different. I like swimming 8 lengths of fly. I like the feeling of my stroke being very smooth and the feeling it gives me as I just glide over the water. I love the encouragement I get when I get out of the pool after a race and all of my team mates congratualte me on my swim, no matter how poorly I did because majority of them are just in awe of the fact that I am able to swim that many lengths of butterfly, in a row, without rest, and still manage to have enough energy to stand up afterwards. I cannot wait until my next swim meet where I will be able to swim a butterfly event again and try and beat my old time! Rise and Shine.
It's 200 metre fly time.
