  SAT Saturday

  Well, I took the SAT for the first time today, and I have to say that it went surprisingly well.

  I was really stressing out about it last night, but I was pleasantly surprised with how well it went

  Honestly, I thought that it was easier than the ACT. The ACT has that ridiculous science section at the end that just killed me, and I'm even into science! Also, I thought that the math was harder on the ACT.

  Overall, I think I did pretty well on the SAT, but I don't want to be overly confident or anything in case I didn't do as well as I felt I did. I can't wait to see my score in a few weeks.

  I'm retaking the ACT on the 25th of this month. I'm not too nervous about that. I am really hoping to get a 30 or higher. I got a 26 last time and was pretty disappointed, but I didn't sleep at ALL the night before, so that probably had something to do with it.

  Anyway...I feel like I can breathe now. I feel so relieved now that I'm done with the SAT.

  Already Tired of School.

  Well, I'm already tired of school and it's only been on for a few weeks. Actually, I've been tired of it since day one. I'm just so ready to graduate... though I'm scared for life after high school. I want to go to college on the East Coast really badly, so I hope I can get into a school out there.

  Lately I've been so tired of North Dakota. I live in Fargo and it is a nice city. The metropolitan area has almost 200,000 people in it, so it's definitely not small, even though this is North Dakota.

  I'm just really sick of it. I'm so ready to get out of here as soon as I can. I still think it's a great place to live, but I just need a change.

  I went on a trip to the East Coast in August and stayed with my uncle and his partner, and they both showed me around Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Delaware, New York, Washington D.C., and so on. I spent most of my time in Philly and South Jersey. My dad is from South Jersey, so basically all of his family is out there, so it was neat seeing family members I hadn't seen in maybe ten years. I hadn't been out there in a while, so I'd forgotten how much I truly loved it out there.

  My current goal is to move out to Philadelphia as soon as possible because I'm absolutely in love with it. My parents kind of want to move back to South Jersey, so maybe I'll just move with them. Sure, it's not Philly, but honestly, towns in South Jersey are so close to Philly it doesn't even matter.

  Basically I'm just ready for my life to begin. It's scary...but at the same time, it's really exciting. I'm really looking forward to being done with high school. I'm sick and tired of it.

  School has started.

  Well, school started on Thursday for me.

  The first two days of senior year were okay.
  The first day was really long and boring since we had to go over the same old crap we do every year (rules, policies, seating charts, syllabi, etc.).
  The second day was a lot better.
  I just need to get into a routine again and I'll be fine.

  I hope this'll be a good year...especially since it's my last year of high school.
  In some ways, that's a sad thought, but in other ways, I'm just ready to be done.
