Perforations


Many of you have probably experienced this before. It’s like “Woah, perforated edges! That must mean it’s easier to rip out!” But you can’t always trust them.

SAT prep (RTFQ)


I went to the SAT prep thing today, at 3:30. I got out at 1:30, so I had two hours to do stuff. I ended up going to the art room and finishing some of the stuff I haven’t finished, and then I went to the auditorium and sat there watching people do things. SAT prep started, I went to the room, and got two really huge books (one of them was like, some book with 11 practice SAT exams, and the other one was like… the thing they use to teach).

It’s not as boring as I thought it’d be. The guy teaching it has a nice sense of humor, always making jokes and whatnot. The thing in the flash actually happened, and everyone was like “wow you’re stupid” and the teacher dude was like “It stands for… fill in the blank. Read the fill in the blank question.” Quite lulz. If there were stand-up comedians who did things about SATs, I think this guy would probably be one.

I got my practice SAT (the one I did on Saturday) back, and I got either an 1860 or a 1932. I’m saying “or” because I’m not sure whether I should include “grammar” and “essay” in the total score, or if they’re part of the writing score. I think it is, so I probably got a 1860. 660 in math, 590 in reading, 610 in writing (64 in grammar and 8 out of 12 in essay). Way better than I thought I’d get, especially for the essay. I didn’t even get to finish it! Pretty awesome.

Yeah, I guess that’s it. Oh right, and just as a very unimportant note, one of my books of graph paper ran out of… graph paper, and so I took off the… ah it’s kinda hard to explain. But I took the spine thing out and it was pretty cool. Carried it around with me all day. Then I got a deck of cards (well, 35 cards found scattered across the auditorium) and started putting them in there. It was cool.

Practice SATs

Today I was scheduled to go take a practice SAT (Not the PSATs!) at 9:30am, and I got there at around 9:27 or so. Waaaay more people were there than I had originally expected. Seriously, there were a lot of people. Apparently they didn’t have enough tests, and after about an hour, they got some more copies, and the test finally started. It was most likely the longest four hours of my life.

The essay was something about… grief caused by… yourself… I don’t even really remember. I just know that I didn’t actually finish it because I had no idea what I was doing. I wrote about global warming and then proceeded to write about peer pressure without any sort of transition, and I didn’t even get to finish. The math sections were actually pretty easy, but the English parts were kinda confusing because there were a bunch of words that I had never heard of in my life. Yeah, I guess that’s it.

I think I’ll be making (or at least attempting to make) another Touhou flash later today, or within the next two days. In other news, on this day, the concept of Keepy Alivey has lasted for a year! Woooo! Good job for keeping it alivey, people! Even though technically the individual threads and forums haven’t lasted a year, the concept has, and that’s what counts, right? And no, there are no images in this blog post.
