Twins Home Opener

The Twins good luck year has come!

The new stadium is pretty much amazing (ok, so I haven't actually seen it yet, but it sounds pretty cool) and we won our home opener.

First home opener in the new stadium + winning = good sign.

Maybe the Twins will finally win another World Series this year and then we can rub all the Yankees fans faces in it.

Along with the fact that we got Mauer.

Go Twins!

ACT

Gah! I take the ACT on saturday and I'm only slightly freaking out. I just took a practice test and got 27, the average at my top school of the moment (Cornell) is in the 30's ><.

Basically, I'm pretty sure I'm going to do way better on the SATs then the ACTs (I did much better on the PSATs then the PLAN test) but who knows. I just need to stay focused and un-stressed. Is that even possible for me?

Not only are the ACTs on saturday, the SATs are in June, MCAs are next week, and the AP Bio test is next month. It's like bubble-test mania. (for those who don't know MCA's are Minnesota's standardized test... or something like that)

Why is it that I understand math so well in class, but on standardized tests, it just evades me. The world may never know.
