crazy dreams.

I really wish I could be a dream expert. Dreams are always so crazy and random, do they actually mean things? Or are they just some crazy imaginative alternate reality? My favorite is when random people show up in your dreams, like people you kind of know and they end up being like your best friend in your dream. And then the next time you see them it's kind of awkward. I think about the random people that have been in my dreams, and I kind of wish I knew whose dreams I've randomly been in. But then again, maybe not..

you: as a 2-digit number

The ACT frustrates me so much. Why would anyone ever believe that your potential for success in college could be predicted by a stupid multiple choice test? Everyone is different, not every student can conform to the way the ACT measures success. And then there's the way everyone instantly judges each other based on scores. Most high school kids hate the ACT, know it's worthless, and yet still act like the scores are a be-all, end-all measure of intelligence. I'm sick of hearing people brag about, "I know someone who got a 35!" Well whoop-de-doo! Congrats on achieving absolutely nothing.

Except... scholarship money. And here is another reason why the ACT is frustrating. I got accepted into a college that gives automatic scholarships based solely on ACT scores. If I would've scored just one point higher, I could've had double the scholarship I can get now. One more point on a meaningless test = an additional $7500 per year. How does that make sense...?
