So I start school (I'm in High School) in a few days and I'm not looking forward to it. It's not that I dislike school, I just dislike going to school (early wake-up) and coming home from school (homework). I want to somehow incorporate Perl with School. For example:

These are all fun and dandy, but I want something more in depth. More of a project. More of something that Everyone, young and old, would actually use. Do you Monks have any idea what I could do that incorporates some or all of what I want to do together? Do you think I will have to learn a lot or a little more Perl (let's say I can do everything in the book Learning Perl, plus basic OOP, references, create Modules)? Do you think this can help not only me, but other kids in my school, area, etc.? Please do not hesitate to voice your ideas/opinions on this. Thanks!
