at 9:05 pm, wednesday night, i opened a letter from the city of los angeles personnel department thingamabob agency and peeked inside. once my eyes fell upon the word "congratulations," i chucked the thing aside and laughed at my parents. i was actually laughing with them, but they didn't know they were supposed to be laughing. gosh, they're so not with it sometimes. maybe i'm just hard for them to read. flesh-and-blood doesn't help, i guess.

a score of 81 out 100 puts me the 14th ranking, which i gather translates to the 86th percentile. i'll put some other numbers up later. not bad for a so-so night of sleep and no real studying. i wonder how heather and alithia did. nick already found out over the weekend that he missed passing by about 8 points.

september 25 is the gift that just keeps on giving. i frickin' love, y'hear?

sleepytime!
