I know that you're with me...through the storm....
Have you seen that Sony commerical? The little girl dressed as an aardvarrk is rather cute, but the song gets stuck in your head for forever!
Anyway, that title has a double meaning as well. I took the SAT today at Huntsville High School, and I had to find it all by myself and stuff and I was pretty worried about it. But on the radio the verse, "Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus," came on and I was like "aww!" Ok...everything went fine with absolutely no credit to my self-reliance. I was in the wrong turn lane to turn onto Bob Wallace, my room number wasn't marked until like 15 mins after I got there, and my cell phone had run out of battery- which prevented me from loosing my answer sheet prematurely. And I'm still alive and I have no pride in my efforts.
Getting up at 5:30 am though is just draining. Matthew and I played raquetball too, which doesnt help too much with the exhaustion. It's funny- he beat me the first game 21-19 and so we decided to play another one. Well, we got to like 15-17 or something and the lights in the court go out. We were like "hey!" So I went to the front desk and the lady is like, "Oops, I forgot you guys were in there!" But it was closing time anyway, so we still had to leave. And I am not giving the game credit to Matthew! I can still beat him. He's getting good though; I beat him like three times in a row, then yesterday he beat me 25-23 in overtime. We stay pretty close through the whole game. He just hits the ball so hard and it goes everywhere! It's hard to predict where it's going to land. I'm just grateful if it hits the back wall first, and I don't worry too much about the other three.
Mmm...I just want to sleep for a very long time. And I've got David Copperfield to read.
I can't wait for next Saturday when I can finally be done with school for awhile! Then I get to be a senior. How cool is that?

I bet you rocked the SAT. And if you didn't, don't worry, because they've changed it into a silly test anyway.
Let's hang out!
And C. S. Lewis's space trilogy really is totally amazing and you'll love it.
