I’m a little less anxious about the upcoming SAT. In comparison to how I previously scored in my practice tests, I’ve improved by over 130 points. My scores are still pretty low, but I’m happy with the improvement. Grace requires only the scores between critical reading and math, and so far, I’m 20 points below the minimum scholarship. At least I know what to improve on and look at before Saturday.

As soon as this weekend is over, I’ll be able to have stress-free weeks/weekends and courses. With the past two competitions, the SAT and a few other other nonessentials coming together within a span of three weeks, my internal system has gone haywire. My parents have suggested me to relax in order for me to get better health-wise, but… I don’t really know how to relax. I’ve always been like a rabbit in that I’m jumping from one thing to another to another. For me to just sit down, breathe and give myself a break… It’s like asking a computer nerd to quote all of ‘Fergalicious’–it just doesn’t happen!

I’m a hoping a few friends and I can get together again and dual it out with our plastic Star Wars light sabers. Nothing says friendship like a pretend light saber battle in a deserted church gym.
