| Hmm...not sure about the AP English test. That could really go either way. I hope that I at least got a 3. It's possible that I got a 4, but only if the ap readers actually buy into my b.s. The 55 multiple choice questions weren't too terribly bad, but there were a few that I left blank. Better blank than wrong: wrong answers count against you. The three essay questions kind of sucked. The poetry essay was probably the worst to write even though poem selection was good: Emily Dickinson and Robert Frost. Then the prose essay dealt with some short story by James Henry. I'm just wondering if that's the same author known as O. Henry. That essay was alright, but I didn't explicitly state what the tone was. Finally, the promt for the free-response essay wasn't too bad. I had to talk about some "central question" in some work of literature. I wrote about The Great Gatsby and how the central question was wether or not man should live with a single dream - Gatsby died for it, but I concluded that if someone is that far disillusioned, then having a single dream is actually better for them. I want to find out my score! I'll just have to wait a month and a half. In good news, I had an interview at G&L today. The manager arranged for me to come in for a second interview, and he said unless I botch that, I pretty much got a job there and can start next week. Not where I prefer to work, but it's a job. I don't know if I should give sears a call or not. I'd rather work in retail than food service (I'd be a cook at G&L), but then again I don't want to comprimise my morals by working at sears. I shouldn't complain though. I'm not exactly in a position to discriminate against where I want to work. | |
