Well, at my school, it's time for us to sign up for our classes for next year. I think that I'm going to go with something like this:
AP Biology
AP Chemistry
Junior English I&II
Differential Calculus
Integral Calculus
Creative Writing
Lord of the Rings (yes, my school really offers an elective class on this)
Adv. American II
A course on revolutions around the world
Post-1945 US & World
Egyptology
Conversational Spanish II
Introduction to Philosophy
and maybe beginning Greek

Wow, all those classes?
A note of warning from experience. I took AP Biology and AP Chemistry at the same time last year and it really burned me out. I love science, but those two together almost killed me. I'm not saying you cannot do it. Just be prepared for a ton of work. It's great because the two classes have much in common, but it almost gets to an overload point.
That Lord of the Rings class sounds cool though. Wish they would teach stuff like that at my school.

Well, AP Chem and Biology are both year-long classes, so I either take the both at the same time, or take one of the at the same time as physics senior year. Our school year is split into trimesters instead of semesters, so most of those classes are only a third of a year.

Seriously though, for things that I enjoy, creating obligations in relation to those things, ruins them for me.

But, like I said, most of the classes are only a third of a year, and that's a selection for the whole year.

I know this isn't what you are asking...
I still have to go to school. I have to have 12 hours every year and then some depending on the Licenses I have to carry. It also depends on what the govt decides is enough.
My point is it really never ends, but I am glad you can carry that many classes. Study hard because, and I know you have heard this, if I had to do it again I would have studied harder and tried harder.

It's 18 classes(AP Chem & AP Bio each count as three), and I attend a school where the absolute minimum is 15 per year. It's not that many when you divide it up (an average of 6 one-hour classes per term)
