so today, we had this SAT prep sort of thingy. and i tell you, i certainly do NOT wish to be subjected to this sort of ill-treatment any time soon. now, i've got no idea how to adequately express the ____ experience of this thing. goodness gracious me, have the setters of SAT ever attempted to do the effing paper themselves??!!
ok basically, it was like, about 3 or 4 hours of being cooped up in that sub zero LT, with a ridiculously long test as company. even though at first glance, it may seem easy peasy because it's primarily mcq, i tell you. first, the sheer length of the entire test really makes it feel like a marathon of the mind. and the questions, damn it. now the strange thing is that, it's not as if the questions are exceedingly difficult or impossible to do. it's just that somehow, for some reason, they are just exceedingly tiresome to do. i guess it's the monotony of the whole thing. question after seemingly stupid question pops up at you as you stumble through the maze of mind-numbing academia. and, ok i'm not sure exactly what the SAT wants to test you on, but the way i see it, it's sort of limited in scope and like, irrelevant?? i mean, let's say you're planning to take up something like, say, ecological studies in university. now i don't see how that crazy SAT is gonna be a useful gauge for entry. it covers only math (and only a few areas at that), and english. and i don't think the english tested there is the sort that will be widely used in daily life. i mean, how many people spam words like, vituperative, enervated, torpid, sedulous etc etc in their daily life??!
and, i think there's something seriously wrong with the ergonomics of the seats in the LT. the tiny foldable tables are just, wrong. =( i emerged from the LT with a frizzled, shizzled brain and a cracking backache. =X
and, work's piling up. again. suddenly, joogal returns 2 pracs and some shizz's gotta be done about them. blearghhhhhhhh, feeling sick thinking about it.
ciao.
