"Lonely. . . "

If you don't know that song, be grateful. It is SO annoying.
What has happened to this blog? Justin, have you been super busy or have you just had nothing to say? Not that I'm blaming you or anything, I'm just wondering. It hasn't been updated in a while.
. . . And I go on mindlessly babbling without anything real to say. Civics field test was annoying but didn't take that long (less than an hour). You'll have the real thing next year. I didn't study, and couldn't keep the amendments to the Constitution straight. In other news, I have fifth disease! Nothing serious, just a virus that causes a really annoying rash that appears when you are no longer contagious. So, about five times a day I look like a lobster and there's really nothing I can do. It'll go away in a few days.
But enough of my sob story. I have other (although not necessarily better) things to do, so I'll stop here. *muttering* Blasted English exam. . .

So.

The SAT is actually not that bad. Boring, yes. Tedious, yes. Ten sections, including a 25 minute essay, that including registration time take up, oh, I don't know, over 5 hours!?! But all in all, it's actually not that bad. I think I did pretty well. Of course, it helped that our English teacher was doing grammar review and pointed out a lot of stuff I wouldn't have thought of otherwise, and I had been doing a very very little vocab review at home, but other than that I really didn't study. Next year, however, I will be hitting the books as hard as I can trying to make a good score so I can get into a good college, get a good scholarship, get a good education, get a good job, and who knows what else.
About the musical. I have a solo! Of course, it's only a very little one in the sophomore number and I have to sing in a really nasal voice because that's my character, but hey, it's still a solo. And I am one of the few who kind of know what they are doing and can hit the notes, so half of the time during rehearsal I had to sing really loud so they could hear what part we were on. And then for "Blow, Gabriel, Blow" I am one of the high sopranos because I can be, and so now my throat is really sore from hitting all those high notes with very little break.
After this week is over, I am going to be so exhausted.

Wow. Long post.
