I am the smartest man alive!!
So i took the GRE today. it totally sucked. i mean, i did perfectly well on it, but sitting there for three hours racking my brain to come up with knowledge i may have had stowed away in the recesses of the brains of the humonculi that run my brain is pretty exhausting work.
sidenote: are not the ideas of humonculi the coolest? i mean, don't you like to think of little miniature yous running around inside your body controlling all aspects of you?
anywho, the GRE works like this: you do a 45 minute analytical writing section, and today's was kinda debating this machiavellian sentiment. then you follow that up by doing another analytical writing section for 30 minutes ripping apart an argument specifically designed to be ripped apart. then you do either 2 verbal sections taking 30 minutes each, and one math, or two math sections taking 45 minutes each and one verbal. yes, those bastards use me to test out material.
and you don't know which section is the test one! what if the first one is the test one?? what if you spend valuable brain energy doing stupid experimental questions and it tires you out for the rest of the test thereby downgrading your performance? what then? sonsabitches!!
anyways, like i said, i did perfectly well on the part i got scored on today. the rest, i'll have to wait and see. but it's certainly nice to have that load off me back!
feeling: liberated
thinking of: booze
song of the day: summertime - janis joplin
