Oh Bethany! You're leaving the club? *cries*
Actually I'm happy for you. As long as your eyes are getting the attention needed and you can see alright...

[Mickey]

Oh you'll be glad Bethy, I had glasses for about four or five years, it's kinda fun to pick them out. Are you gonna go with the really big frames or small ones?

[Pound Foolish]

Well that's it for my scraps of respect for Ben Carson, they're gone.

[SirWhit]

Respect for Ben Carson?

Meh, lost that a long time ago.

It's official. I'm getting glasses. I'm sorry I'm ditching you!
When in told the doctor that I had some trouble when I drive he was like, yup! *writes prescription*

I'll get a large pair. I have an oblong face shape, so the big, square ones look good.

[Tea Ess]

Wow, PF, that's bad even for Dr. Carson. I have respect for his medical achievements, but not for his political career, if I'm allowed to divorce the two.

You are, you really are. And I'm an Oreo although I am not a serious person really. I laugh.

I love oreos! And I am more serious, though a goofball when I want to be.
We need more people to take the quiz!

[Didi]

It should be a thread.

[Tea Ess]

I'm a chocolate chip cookie.

It's best to forget what of any thing I said about my cooking skills.

This was homemade hot chocolate...the dark part on the outside is hardened chocolate and the white parts are curdled milk.

[Blitz]

Wow that was a huge success. I'm not a great cook myself, but I have never burned hot chocolate..

[GJFH]

Wowwww Blitz...
I tried, okay? And I won't probably ever try again. The kitchen stove is covered in the goop.

[Blitz]

Oh now the goop I hate. My dad always makes me clean it up then and there.

I'M OFFICIALLY LEAVING MY PARENTS. I AM NO LONGER A MEMBER OF THE TS FAMILY.

"The ACT with be easy" they said. "It's like third grade math at the hardest" they said.

I THINK I FAILED IT. Obviously your few comments saying you didn't find the ACT super difficult meant I didn't need to study at all, and now it's totally all your fault. -______-

But seriously, I'd almost say the ACT was harder then the SAT. GRANTED, I took the SAT at the end of the school year last year, after taking classes that were right about the level the SAT is at. And the ACT I took at the start of this school year, after a busy summer where I forgot everything and a busy fall where I'm not exactly studying in general as hard as I normally can. But still, the ACT math was definitely harder then the SAT math... and there are /two/ SAT math tests. The SAT only had very few Trig problems that I can remember, and I took several official SAT practice tests, and not one of them had problems dealing with proofs, while the ACT had two I think. Also, ACT science is just rough. >_> But oh well, I'm just a complainer. I have a good SAT score, so hopefully colleges will accept me even with a bad ACT score. =p (I'll have to wait a while to see what I actually get though) I do grant the ACT's essay for the SAT. The SAT essay was this half page article that you read and the instructions for the essay was to "summarize the document and describe how the author presents their viewpoint. And, don't you even dare to even MENTION or HINT what your oppinion is on the issue or you will be sued $300, sent to prison, and you will never be able to get into college. Ok, thx, get to writing. =)" The ACT was a short paragraph on an issue, and then three viewpoints on the issue and you were to summarize the different views on the topic and state your own opinion. Which was tons easier for me to write, even though I don't think I did it very good, but anyhow. =) I can't talk about it, but I felt very blessed since I knew about the topic. 0__0 =)

Well, that was a long random rant that I doubt no one read except moderators that already hate me and would just love to kick me out........... BUT, if you are like me... you may find the above humorous. =D Ok. bye.

[SirWhit]

Too many caps and smileys, enjoy your permaban and execution

Sounds rough. College testing is really quite stupid imo >_> but there's really no better way to do it.

[Helios]

Wow that was a huge success. I'm not a great cook myself, but I have never burned hot chocolate..

I second this. That was a success. It looks delicious, Grace!

Nooooo. We didn't mean to mislead you. We're sorry.

I had a standardized college essay like this. It was not fun.

But yeah, you probably didn't do that badly, and even so, you should be fine with just an SAT score. I think it's pretty common to do much better on one over the other.
