Divine Lunacy

Funniest thing… really. I stepped out of the car at RIC this morning, and headed through the parking lot towards Gaige Hall. When I was but ten feet from the car, I saw a large figure with black hair and a brown shirt frantically running through the parking lot. (can you guess who it was?) I instinctively shouted “Oh my god! That’s Mike Smith!!!”. Being fat myself, I didn’t bother to catch up with him. In retrospect, I wish I had. We then would have taken the SAT in the same room.(instead, I was stuck with a bunch of gangstas whom I had never seen before, and probably won’t see again) Those of you who have yet to take the SAT, beware. That is one obnoxiously long test. I found it pleasant up to section six, but after that, all I could think about was leaving. Goddamned College Board.

Apparently Hannah was at RIC as well, but I didn’t see her. I feel better knowing that I was in the same boat as her though. Neither one of us knew how to get to RIC. She did the smart thing though. She followed her dad there… Me on the other hand… I had my mom bring me. My mom dropped me off near Gaige, but noted that the testing was moved to Alger (somehow everyone knew exactly how to get to Alger. I just followed them…). Given my mother’s instructions for getting to Alger, my Dad waited outside the building for when I would finish testing (he even went in the building to make sure it was the right building, but the orange-shirted Nazi kicked him out.) My mother failed to tell my father that she dropped me off in front of Murray. A problem that arose is that Alger is a four-sided building, and I came out the side opposite from where my Dad was waiting. I went to Murray Hall where I was dropped off and waited for an hour and a half while my Dad waited outside Alger. Things don’t usually work very well when two parties are simultaneously waiting for each other in different locations. I’m quite surprised I didn’t go blind from the sun reflecting off the cars as I sat in waiting.
