Exo: 1 English: 0

Well! It has been quite the journey thus far! I know I've attention whored the news all over the place, but I just can't get enough of this. :D

For the last few days or so I've been once again talking to Janice from South University helplessly trying to get it all setup. The final step was Ashley taking me to the local library so I can take the College Placement Exam.

To say I was confident would be a lie. A really fat lie. I was afraid I'd take the test and at the end the system will say "YOU ARE THE WEAKEST LINK, GOODBYE" then explode into confetti.

We get to the library and I begin to take the first part, which was Arithmetic. 10 minutes in, the library computer times out since library computers are built on the premise of failnet. Fortunately, though, they have wifi access. Ash drove me back to her place to get her laptop. This, of course, had to have the extra stress that I had left my cell phone at the library.

Yeah. LOL

I called the library, they found the phone and held it for me. Crises averted.

We eat and head back to the library. Ash drops me off this time since she had her own thing to do. I began the test and hoped for the best.

I know my math was weaksauce and at the time I thought I did ok with English. After finishing, I called Janice to tell her my scores. Luckily, my math was good enough to be a passing grade but she actually stuttered when I told her that I got 100 in Reading Comprehension and 116 in Sentence Structure.

She told me I amazingly well with English...well enough to be able to just test out of the first course in it! Where are your beaner jokes now, gringos!

Oh. Right here:

Fuck you, Chad. <33

She then promptly said "Congrats! You're a college student now!"

If it wasn't for the fact that I was in a library, I would've exploded like a school girl and Janice would've thought I was clinically insane. I posted in MySpace, Facebook, Out of Topic in zam.com, and now posting in blogspot which will also post on Facebook.

Yeah. I IZ HAPPIES

Steve got home and of course I told him the news also. We all decided to go to AC (and by decided, I do mean spontaneous 'oh, btw, let's go to AC'). It wasn't to actually celebrate that I got accepted; we would've gone regardless of the fact. In my needy little mind, though, it was a celebration!

Best part? Steve was showing me this Monopoly slot machine game and put in money so I can play. I won enough money to not only reimburse him the game he paid for me, but his OWN game that he played to show me and still walked away with an extra $43 for myself.

June 15, 2009, I heart thee.
