You will get to see it in theater? Lucky dog! :inlove: . I'll probably have to wait until it hits the shelves. I started looking at the Civil War comics and I hate Stark with a passion (the comics I have read so far seem to favor Iron Man's side).

Yeah, I've heard that the comics basically turn everyone into a straw man, and it doesn't help that apparently all of the issues that tied into that arc were written by a lot of different people with vastly different political beliefs and differing levels of writing skill. Even the contents of the Superhero Registration Act—the thing everyone was fighting over in the first place—were inconsistent from story to story. (There was also an infamous scene in which Captain America is somehow stunned into silence because he's accused of being out-of-touch on live TV for...not following NASCAR, not watching American Idol, and not having a MySpace page, all of which became irrelevant anyway less than a year after that issue was printed.)

Glad you got that out of the way, Isaiah. And I hope you do well, Bethany! Standardized college entrance exams are the worst. =P Just don't overthink the questions, and you'll do just fine. :)

I think so. I took some practice tests during the week in order to study, and I found them rather hard and was a little stressed Friday worrying about it. But, I didn't find the test that hard, I think I understood most of the questions. ;) I probably failed the essay, because I had no idea what I was supposed to write, but *shrugs* I don't care that much. =p I did my best. 8)

Niiiiiiiiiice. xD My Mom wants me to take the ACT sometime before I graduate too, but I don't know much about it. Is it graded on just school-to-school basis? :?

I took the test, and it didn't feel as long as I though it actually was. I definitely guessed a lot, but I think I did ok. I REALLY don't care. xD

The first was I broke my clavicle while surfing (OK, it might've been an artificial wave machine, but that's not important.)- which then resulted in my having surgery right before finals during my first semester. The second was when my mom and I got rear-ended and I ended up spraining a-fore mentioned clavicle. But it's done, and I am now a sophomore! xD

So my college's enactus team went to nationals this year, and we got 5th place in the semifinals, making us one of the top 20 teams in the nation!

I was on the presentation team, so I'm pretty proud of how well we did.

Enactus is an organization for college students to use entrepreneurial action to impact the lives of others.

Each college's group prepares a presentation about their projects and presents it to the judges. For example, some of our projects were implementing recycling on our campus, and helping a Title 1 elementary school in our area.
