Ben's Junior year is just getting started

This summer was pretty good all in all. I got to go to Michigan with my family and New Orleans with my church youth group so I did a fair bit of traveling. I also swam some at Southland pool and got to spend some time with my brother Erik who had come back after a semester in Rome. To top it all off, I also got my drivers permit, which I was long overdue to get. Passed the test the first time, woo! The only downer was summer homework, but it was my fault for putting it off too long.

As a student, I hope that will be able to keep up not only with my rigorous coarse load but also with all of SAT and ACT and CATS testing that Henry Clay is going to throw at me. My goal is to get A's in all of my classes as well as prepare myself for taking 3 AP tests in the spring. I also hope to be able to get at least 6th chair in my cello section in orchestra.

My hobbies included reading manga (Japanese comics) and listening to instrumental music. Some of my favorite manga are Future Diary, Full Metal Alchemist, Black Butler and Cage of Eden. This is my favorite website for reading manga: http://www.mangareader.net/
Some of my favorite music groups are E.S. Posthumus, Bond, Escala, Skanda Music, J.W. Media Music, Epic Score, and Brand X Music. The last four groups are actually trailer music producers. Out of all these, my favorite is E.S Posthumus This is the cover of their first album:
