Lol just got my score report in my email for the college bound US standardized test the SAT's, I got no higher than a 2100 on the practices but somehow only got 3 questions wrong total on the 4 hour test out of a Highest possible score of a 2400 which I think only 200 people get in the US.

Basically this means I can play TF2 more, I was pretty worried but this is a huge relief. I have to tackle other tests later with AP's and the SAT II's but that's another story and shouldn't be as time consuming.

Oh and I'm pretty sure I may have gotten a question wrong if not for TF2, it mentioned ancient weapons and tools such as the bellows and the Kukri (Snipers melee weapon :D), I guess the college board plays TF2.

Doesn't come in the mail for another week so I'm not going to tell my parents , here's hoping to a car.

Oh and the best part, when my parents thought I've been prepping diligently for months I had been mostly just browsing the web and playing video games, I lucked out.

I'm going to go take a nap, now I have to deal with my grades which have gone on a downwards spiral this quarter.

Luck > Effort ?

I didn't want to read all that stuff about SAT, but whatever ever happened, congratulations! :)

I just read 'TF2', and I was all like "HELL YEAH" - That's all I needed to know.
