 Anyway, I got off the car and entered the mysterious maze of a testing center-my school. I looked at everybody else in the waiting hall. Nobody else seemed to be doing anything or know where we were supposed to be going. Except one person (in a green T-shirt). He seemed to be moving purposefully in a North-north-west direction(Yes, my calculator had a compass program. As the chief engineer of the Titanic's friend* once said, you could never be too over-prepared**.) Anyway, I followed him, hoping that he knew where we were supposed to be going. Then, I noticed a few more people. And then a few more. By the time we were halfway down the hall, there was at least a hundred students. By the time we were almost there(wherever there is), approx. half of the total number of examinees were following us. Then we hit a dead end. 

 With so many people, it took quite a while for everybody to notice that. Then, there was silence. Absolute silence. The seven seconds of silence*** were finally broken by somebody in the back shouting: "Why are we here??" Always glad to enlighten, I replied: "Some believe that our ancestors were created by God in his image and to serve his will, others believe that we were reincarnated from previous lives depending on karma, a few even believe that it's all a random fluctuation of probability particles; personally, I'm more of the Chuananity sect, which holds that all of us are currently undergoing the most complicated virtual reality experience in the software of t-"

 Somebody rudely interrupted my sermon by saying: "Dude, not why we are here in general, the question is why are we here in this dead end with a mild smell of old cabbage" Oh, I thought. Everybody begin to jabber.

"Well, I was going here because everybody else seemed to be moving, and"

"Lots of people were going in this direction"

"I thought, hey, follow the majority and you can't go wrong"

"I saw my friend walking there with them, and I thought hey, why not"

"I followed those five people, and then it seemed like there was a lot of other people as well, so I knew this was the right direction-

And so on and so forth. After a very long time, the evidence narrowed down to me. I pointed to the guy in the green T-shirt and explained. We all looked at him, hoping that there was a logical explanation. He explained that he was going to the bathroom, but then noticed that everybody else was going in this direction and decided that something important is going on. 

Finally, it all became clear. 

It dawned to all of us that we were here by the will of God.

Doing the SATs Part 1

Quotes: "The Slimy Atrocious Torture(SATs) is the greatest weapon ever to endanger mankind"-upyourscore.com

I took my SATs on May 3rd. In case you just crawled out of a cave in Bangladesh from the second century and don't know what the SATs are, it's only one of the most traumatic experiences ever suffered by a high school student. The Slimy Atrocious Torture  consists of extremely complex and mind-blowing questions in reading, writing and mathematics lasting to a total of a grueling, 225 minutes. Yes, you heard right. 225 minutes!!! Of all the forms of torture(and if you ever talked to Yuanmashita, there are quite a few) invented by mankind(including waterboarding, lynching, getting your toenails pulled one by one and 4th period  english class without a pillow), this is easily the worst.

  So how did mine SATs go?One word:lousy. With a capital L(and an o and an u and a s and a y, but let's not go there)

 First, I was just a teeny little bit nervous, so I didn't sleep well. As in really didn't sleep well. As in, took five hours  to sleep and when I did sleep, I had a dream about Adolf Hitler and ETS conspiring to create the perfect race through  the natural magnetism in 2B pencils(don't ask), so when there were a few hundred of those sharp, nasty weapons pointed at me, I did the only logical thing under the circumstances :I woke up screaming.*

 Secondly, when I woke up, I realized that I  might have forgotten a few things in my zeal to remember all the SAT words like luminous, embark, insipid, accessories, unconventional, dearth, enthrall, lousy, censure, timorous, and, well, you get the point. For starters, saving time by simultenously brushing your teeth and eating is not a good idea. And being creative on the day of the test by wearing your socks as a hat is probably a big no-no, too. And don't get me started on the advantages of respiration.**At 7.25, it was time to go.

So with my test off to a flying start, I cheerfully climbed into my father's car(had to try a few times before I realized that the trunk wasn't the entry point. and he drived me into the the SAT testing grounds(turns out to be my school)

*If you ever Google SAT and nightmares, you'll realize I'm not the only one.

**Really, you'll be amazed at the comforts other humans take for granted

I'm back.

Leonardo notes:Guys, look, I'm sorry but the word-based ads will probably be lower quality than usual and/or be mildly suspicious from now onwards.

Hi, guys, since the SATs is over, Leonardo's back. In case you  guys hadn't been on this blog since February* and wondering who the Halo**Leonardo is, I'm the writer of this blog. You know, Blogofanerd.blogspot.com? You don't know? Oh, well. 

Look, I'm sorry I hadn't posted in quite a while. I miss you guys as much as you people(allegedly) miss my blog.

I wouldn't be seriously posting until June, but in the mean time, I'll try to post at least twice a week. See you, people! Love you, fans!!
