My Blog:                         Random stuff:

Brent's Blog Friday, October 28, 2005  1:58 AM   And now for something from the ACT  So Ben, Jenny, and myself were sitting in the front of the coldest math classroom ever at Chaparral and taking the ACTs. In between fits of nearly uncontrollable shivering I glance over and notice a bit of an incogruity. So I turn to Ben and mention it. "Hey Ben, they're using a copy of Farewell to Arms to prop up that desk so it doesn't wobble." "Hemingway? Yeah, that's about right." We're really holding out that rearguard effort for American literature, boys and girls. So that's really about the most interesting thing from the ACT. Just like the SAT it is really long and really pointless. And just like the SAT you lose the will to live about three sections in. Anything that happens after that a sane human being should not be held accountable for. Yes, I have grown to despise standardized tests. So once again I'm procrastinating. I should be frantically polishing those debate cases, seeing as how the tournament's tomorrow, but honestly I don't really care. It's probably just because I'm really tired, tomorrow morning I'll start freaking out about it. Averaging two hours of sleep a night is a really good way to make yourself not care about stuff.   ¶ 1:58 AM 0 Comments: Post a Comment Back       Home
