ACTs Pt II, Keys and Who Knows What

Yes, I did take the ACT again. Hopefully, I did better this time. Once again, I was denied automatic enterance, likely because the ACT system hates me, so it never registers me on the school's list of applicants. So.... Even when I showed up with my authorized entrance ticket, I had to wait in line with the stand-by's. That was SO! embarrassing! It was like everybody filing by was looking at me like I didn't know how to run my life and I had no thought for the future other than stand-by. Oh well. At least I registered for it myself, and didn't have my mom do it for me. :D

While the ACT was ten thousand buckets of fun, it was also very cold. When I got dressed this morning in my favorite blue jeans and my Capital High Key Club shirt, gloves and jacket, I fully expected to need to remove them during the test. To my highly unpleasant surprise, the room was a crisp 66 degrees the entire time. This wouldn't have been absolutely awful, had the proctor not continued to chill the room every time the over worked AC attempted to rest. I felt like a catatonic vegetable in a crisper! Not exactly the ideal test taking atmosphere. Not that outside was any better. When I walked out it was raining, cloudy, and cold. I thought it was strange how I couldn't find my keys on the way out, until I got to my vehicle. THEN! I found them. {: In my ignition, with locked doors. I. Am. Fabulous. That's all. A few phone calls and 40 minutes later, my brother arrived with a set of keys for me to unlock my doors with. Happily, I had my lunch with me, so I didn't absolutely starve. My mom loves me so much.

Upon arriving home, I discovered my two Boise siblings and their families at my house. A delightful surprise after spending the last four hours mentally exhausting my skills and abilities! I was jazzed. {: So we had lunch, and then I took a nap. Ironically, it seems that whenever I take a nap or go to bed, whenever I wake up my family has disappeared. I suppose that's nice to know if I ever tire of them. Suffice it to say, the nap was fabulously spectacular. It was the kind where it felt like five hours' worth, but in reality was a scant one.

Happily, or unhappily, I woke up to my mom telling me my running buddy was waiting for me. -Sigh- It's true. Running, work, and a few other things [none of which I can remember] is pretty much all I've done this summer, and I've been completely happy with it. To some extent. I'm not saying that I'm a hard-core runner yet. But I'm not saying that I hate it either. Anywho, it was definitely a sluggish running day. It poured kiloliters on us as we were driving to the park! Kiloliters! It was huge. Happily, we didn't entirely have to run in it. {: It passed the direction we were NOT! going. :D Weraq.

I don't really have a third item to display emotion about. However, I will say that a very good friend and I went to dinner this evening. It was absolutely fabulous! It was his first time at Mongolian BBQ, so he was pretty much a n00b, but he did enjoy it, so I'm glad of that. Other than that, not a lot has happened that's blog-worthy. So I suppose I'll just stop there and scurry to bed or something. Cheers! :D
