Today we had the PSATs. I don’t really get why we have those. Are they practice? Pre-SATs? Practice-SATs? Dunno. I felt kind of dumb during it, though. Especially on the vocabulary questions. I was like, aaaaarrrrgggg…… biiiig woooooorrrrrdsssssuh……. blarg. I really should just look up words I don’t know in books instead of just ignoring them…. but that’s. So. Haaaaard. I guess as a result, my vocabulary is kind of abdomenibable….. I mean bad. I do have trouble remembering definitions. There are a few words that I just CAN’T REMEMBER. Like “concur.” I’ve heard that word kagillions of times. EVERY. TIME. I heard it, I’m like, “huh?” What? *Goes to dictionary.com.* Right okay. It means to agree…. or something like that.
I don’t think I finished any of the PSAT sections, either. I guess that’s not that bad, though. I don’t think I finished any of the sections last year, either, and I think I still got a pretty high score. Bah. I’m such a dummy.
Maybe I’m just lazy. It’s weird, because I hardly have any classes this year. Every other day, I have two study halls. And a lunch. Every six school days, I have THREE study halls. And a lunch. That’s four free periods in a day. Still, though, I feel overwhelmed with work. Maybe even more than last year when I only have ONE study hall every six class days. I’m weird. And school’s depressing. So I’m going to make a list of things that have made me happy lately. This blog has been too depressing. So.
Things that have made me happy lately:
- Sleepy Hollow the movie with Johnny Depp and Christina Ricci. The movie is SUPER COOL. The style is really dark and creepy. It’s really funny, too.
- Norah Jones.
- Martha Stewart Halloween stuff.
- My locker. My locker this year totally ROCKS. I have three shelves in it and it’s decorated completely with pictures from movies and magazines. It also has a whiteboard, a mirror, and a little pen holder thingy.
- Eternal Sunshine of A Spotless Mind. It’s so pretty.
- East of Eden, the Steinbeck Centennial Edition. Oh man, this book is really, really, really sick. In a really, really, really satisfying way. The characters are so twisted and evil. It’s too cool. And the Centennial edition has good design. And it smells good. *Sniff.*
- Harvest Spice candles from Pier 1

PSATs blow. Fucked me over with an 1150. I’ll fuckin’ kill them.
If you can find it “SAT I for Dummies” By Susan Vlk. Raised my score SUBSTANTIALLY. Totally worth it.
practice scholastic aptitude test/national merit scholarship qualifying test.
I am not sure about prep for PSATs or SATs but abdomenibable is not a word. Perhaps you meant abdominal, the adjective form of abdomen which means “the part of the body between the diaphragm and pelvis; belly”.
Heh.
What about me? Am I a highlight? Speaking of highlights are you ever going to dye your hair?
haha yes, they are practice for the sat’s. didn’t they give you THE TALK!?
you need more words! or you’ll get a horrrible sat score! no college will take you!
haha just kidding, thats what the teachers say to freak you out [sadists.] but i don’t think its a huge deal.
yeah, i think i did okay. either the same or like 3 points higher than last year, i had a 1080. which was pretty high compared to the rest of my class. dummies.
did i tell you i saw “Saved”??? it was HILARIOUS. you must see it. NOW. why aren’t you going to rent it!??!?
oh, and i got some of those gem thingys from spoiled rotten for my windows. they’re cool.
_Jill!
I hope you guys got that I purposely made up the word abdominal…… right?
:P I bought Saved! :)
