For those of you who didn't read my last entry, I took the most important test of my life Saturday morning. Let's start our story the night before, when my only problem was getting to sleep. Before officially waking up, I was awakened by two SAT related nightmares. One had me oversleeping and the other had me going to the wrong test center. After that, I got ready and my dad dropped me at the correct test center. When it's finally my turn to be assigned a room, the guy at the counter asks for my ID, and I reach for my wallet. It's not there. So then I have to wait for my dad to find my wallet back at home and bring it all the way over here.

Okay, so the test starts with an essay. What the hell kind of test starts with an essay. It was one of those essays where you right about a personal experienced, so I just BSed some stuff so my life seemed interesting. The rest of the test is divided into ten sections, which will either test my grammar, reading or math skills. The first six sections were cake, but after the 15 minute break I hit a bump. The math was getting complex and there was no way I could have made it to the end in time without a calculator. I raise my hand to asks for one and the proctor just laughs and turns away. WTF? Had a taken this at my actual High School, I would have been provided with a calculator, but apparently this school was too poor to buy calculators for everyone. So yeah, while the majority of the class breezes through the sections, I'm struggling on question 5. Thankfully most of the questions were multiple choice, meaning if I saw my answer as one of the choices then my math was good.

So I left my house at 8:00 AM and finally at 2:20 PM, I arrive home. I originally planned to do this blog immediately after the test, but I had never felt so drained in my life. In fact, I still feel a little dead and I've got some college related crap due Tuesday. My scores are coming in about three weeks, but regardless of how good/bad they are, I'm retaking the examwith my own calculator. If I act like a total A-hole throughout this week, now you know why.
