Things seem to be going well today at my internship. For one, it's raining outside. Splendid! Second, the copy of Windows XP on my awful internship laptop has required yet another reinstallation.

I picked an excellent day to wear a freshly pressed white shirt. I'm not a cokehead, I swear.

I'll never forget my high school's struggle to test 800 students for two days, while abiding by the regulation classroom setups. Needless to say, the freshmen and sophomores got two field trips and the seniors got two days off of school. It took more than half the classrooms in my high school to seat my junior class. That was only the beginning of it, too. In addition to the ISBE assessments in reading, writing, math, science and social science, every student, including the handicapped and disabled, had to take the ACT. It was the longest two days of my life.
