Seven of Nine

I apologize to Amay about the Star Trek, but the consensus among readers is that Start Trek rocks. The season of Voyager which I've been watching is all about the development of the character Seven of Nine and her integration into life on Voyager. I believe she is my favourite character for a couple of reasons. Alleah, I have season 4 of TNG as well, which includes the one where Picard is assimilated and becomes Locutus. Unfortunately, I only have half of the episode as the other half is in the next season. Stupid cliffhangers.

I, too, can tell the difference between milks. I am quite the 1% fan. Kevin refers to our family as the moderate drinkers for his fridge features the extremes of skim and homogenized. Of course all milk is homogenized (thank goodness), but I prefer that they skim off some fat before doing so. Amay, here is a list of many things that go well with milk: cookies, cereal, bananas, chocolate and strawberries. And its healthy. I find it to be quite the win-win situation.

Saturday, I woke up at the ungodly hour of 7 am. I wrote my SATs and found myself quite scholastically apt. I owned the math part. It had almost nothing hard on it at all, though I have the feeling that I missed a couple out of carelessness. Of course, the whole test is timed and you don't have extensive amounts of time to spend on each question. I didn't know what
unctuous, libertine, dovish, eschew, diffident, or limelight meant so I lost a couple marks on the English part. I was confident in my readin comprehension and answered most all of the questions. I saw one person I knew at the SATs, Whitney, the girl I tutor. There was also an entire hockey team writing to try to get scholarships to the US. I talked to one and their huge goal is to get over 1000. I think I'll beat them, seeing as I consider myself above average when it comes to math skills.

After arriving home, I was, naturally, starving so I ate lunch. I proceeded to spent 165 CAD applying for one of U of T's hardest programs, Engineering Science. The average entrance grade is low to mid 90's; however, it would be an insanely awesome course to take. I can probably get some co-op through them as well. My friend, Rahim, also applied to this same program. I am awaiting responses from the
College Board, UBC, SFU and U of T. Shortly, I will have to manually report my marks to U of T, since it is out of BC.

  • I can tell the difference between milks too *high fives* I like most of the Star Treks I kinda lost track of DS9 though. Its no longer on the Space station *tragedy!!!!* I dont like TNG SOMETIMES. It tends to get repetitive with story lines. I mean in the other ones, they're always original *sarcasm drips onto the keyboard*

    As a point of interest, try getting frozen blueberries and filling a cup with them and than adding milk and waiting 1-3 minutes, and eat with a spoon. Its tres delisuse! (frenglish!!!!) or just bananas enstead of blue berries.

    Also, I would have gotten 50% on thge math section at the most...... maybe. depending on how hard it was. Last years final was so uber easy, I was in enriched 11 and I got 96%, but I have literally forgotten everything. However in the english section I may have done well. I know all those words except for "dovish". But if it means "like a dove", Im gunna be mad, because my computer won't load the definitions page, and I'm mulling it over now!!!

    Muses. Congratulations on your SATs!!! it must feel good to have that off your shoulders!!!

  • I wouldn't say you *have* to manually report your marks to UoT... there's a thing you fill out, a form to sign that authorises the school to release your marks to universities... and you can pick like 3 out-of-province ones, which would save you some effort if you can do it yet. It's a form that was mandatory for Capp 12 last year though.

  • did you know that another awesome function of milk is that when you eat something too spicy for your delicate tastebuds, it cools your mouth down admirably, which water DOES NOT, despite the common misconception.

    yes, we tend to stock homogenized only, possibly because it can be cheaper. but lately, I have noticed an alarming trend towards 2% and soy. I mean really, what's with THAT? soy's revolting.

    so yes, Amay, you must admit, milk owns. plus, it's the only thing you can eat for THE ENTIRETY OF YOUR LIFE. that's gotta count for something, right?

    unless you're Laura.
