I have not been watching basketball, but I just got a 101 on my AP US History Exam and either a 100 or a 99 on my English Exam from yesterday! So i'm rather pleased with myself now :-D

Congrats! And I'm a Knicks fan, which means I don't much like basketball. :(

New York. The state, not the city. Anyway, I get paid $55 a day. If I worked at any other district, I would get $80-$100 a day. However, none of those districts are in walking distance.
