To the small saws, ooh. That's one thing I didn't learn over there, and I'm kinda tempted to ask how to do it. XD
Good luck getting back in and on acing your exams. I can't wait to have you back more frequently, y'know? ;_; Don't worry about some of the new people. Asty and I would love to have some sanity come back to the place.
Speaking about your exams, I read it, and it sounds a lot like the SATs, only more specialized. In any case, yeah, I know it can be stressful, but remember to relax now and then. Stressing yourself out too much -> bad scores. @_@ Still, I can tell you'll do well on the English portion, at least. You're seriously not bad at all at it (especially compared, loltastically enough, to other English speakers).
