50 kilos off my back
That's right. SAT 1s are done. At least, the first one. But that's a huge burden off my back. My periodic exams are done too. Next week would be Intrams week in school. A whole week of sports. :eek:
After the SATs Ayisse, Dixi, Neil, Gelo and I went to Market-Market to eat lunch. We were freezing (and hungry) inside the damn Little Theater at ISM (the test venue, International School Manila) for 4 hours. Whenever I had to erase a wrongly shaded circle on my answer sheet with the eraser head on my pencil, I couldn't flip the damned pencil and replace it on my hand because my fingers were nearly numb. Ayisse's nose and ears were nearly purple too haha. Speaking of those ever-present circles in standardized tests, I hated the SAT circles. They were hard to shade because of their stupidly horizontal elliptical orientation. Talk about ergonomic...not. Eventually, I adjusted to shading the blasted circles, I mean, OVALS without having to skew my answer sheet to an almost vertical position reminiscent of an inelastic curve.
Some questions during the test made me think of what happened to the people in the examples or "So what if I answer this? So what if I don't?" I shouldn't have watched The Perfect Score the night before. There seemed to be an exact replay of parts of it during certain moments while I took the test.
While I watched the movie the night before, halfway through it (I forgot which part) it just hit me that it IS easy to get a low score in the SAT. I hope I get a 1400 or something higher, but I doubt it somehow. 1400 range is the highest I can get, I think. :( Ah, so much self doubt.
Hmm... maybe I should watch Perfect Score again this afternoon.
I've got awesome new photos at deviantArt. Everybody visit it! Bang
I want to watch Shark Tale. Reviews said it's not so funny but I bet I'd get a kick out of watching a shark mob boss and a whole gang of sharks hahaha. I thought Robert de Niro sounded particularly gangster-ish and a part of the trailer looked so much like those scenes from gangster movies where the mob bosses meet. I only learned through a particular review of the movie that Robert de Niro is voicing Don Lino, the shark mob boss. :D The thought of it makes me laugh already.
