Ah. Yesterday was pretty awesome. Well, most of it.

SATs from 7:40 to 1:15ish. I managed somehow to get put in the same room as Emma and Kiyoshi which was nice because then I had someone to talk to during the breaks. The SATs themselves weren't too bad. I can't really judge how I did, but I don't think I did much worse than my practice tests this summer.

Then rushed to the football game. Mrs. Bentley showed up around halftime to watch us perform our show. eep. After halftime, I rushed to the car and then off to the Home Depot Center for the concert.

No pictures, because the Home Depot Center doesn't allow cameras or anything, and I didn't want to risk trying to sneak my digital camera in.

I was going to go to the animal shelter this morning, but the gate was closed and locked and stuff and there was only one other car in the parking lot, so I left. ...it's going to be really hard to get my hours in this month.

Went to Woodbridge Center today with Jackie, Emma, Justin, Richard, and Ariel for Ariel's birthday. We saw Charlie and the Chocolate Factory (which I had not seen before; I don't see very many movies, if you hadn't noticed). I liked the old version, but I also really like this one. I really like how much more creepy Willy Wonka was. Only thing I didn't like was that they didn't have the scene where Charlie and his grandfather do that thing with the bubbles and they're floating and they don't tell Willy until the end. I liked that, because then Charlie had a flaw, but in this one he was practically perfect. Otherwise I liked a lot, though.

We also went to eat at Ruby's and then we hung out at Barnes and Noble. I kind of really wanted to get this book that was advertised on the Daily Show and I remembered thinking was interesting and finding the author funny, but all I could remember about it was that it was red, there was a picture of a chair on the cover, and it had the word comfortable in the title. I looked all over for it, couldn't find it. Then I found America: A Citizen's Guide to Democracy Inaction which is by the Daily Show/Jon Stewart and I saw and Amazon and thought it looked interesting. So I finally ended up buying that. Then, about 3 minutes after buying it, want to guess what I found? The book I had wanted before. sigh. Both books were like $20+, though, so I didn't want to buy the red one too. It's ok, I'll just buy it online or some other time.

It was a fun day, in any case. ...but I should probably get started on my homework now.
