angry rant
gahhh. i am an absolute beast right now.

today was completely asinine. on the AP exam guide thing it said my spanish exam would take about 3 hours. so.. plus the ten minute break and some spare time.. it would last until about 11:30.. since we started at 8:00.
wrong. wrong-o, keebler. i got out at 2:14. because the idiots administering the test had no fucking clue what they were doing.

they split us into groups that were much much too small to go and take the oral exam, which was supposed to take 20 minutes. so although they could have had 10, maybe 12 people in the computer labs at a time... they had like 5 people in at a time. and they didn't figure this out until it was my group's turn.

which BY THE WAY, i had to start twice. because they didn't read the instructions properly and i pushed stop rather than pause. because that's what they told us to do! i wasn't the only one. but still. oh. and i had to go out of there while the other people (who were too slow to push the button they told us to push that we weren't supposed to) finished that one. which, again, took forever. and i had to come in with the next group.
and while i waited? i couldn't talk to anyone like the other people who were waiting (who hadn't gone in yet.) and i went over to talk to my friends before i knew that and i was honestly insulted when they called me back and, essentially, put me in a corner and said "this is so you won't tell!"
A. why would i give people an advantage?
B. it was only one question...
C. all that was on the page for prompts was "greet her." "tell her it's not possible and offer an alternate suggestion"
(in spanish though of course..) and that's gonna get them really fucking far even if i did tell!

speaking of forgetting things, they told most groups that they could go eat lunch. but somehow neglected my group. only mine. so i was in that fucking place for 7 hours and had nothing at all to eat. my brain was so empty by the time i got to the oral part.. i'm pretty sure i just bombed it. i could NOT concentrate.
(and, as much as that sounds like an excuse, it's really not. i got a 9/10 on our last oral simulation thing.)
7 hours + big important test + no food + annoying girls chattering + instructors that don't know what they're doing = not happy

so i was positively savage by the time i got home.

and so i've been up here for awhile, reviewing plays/stories we've read for AP english cause i have that exam on thursday...
and my mom comes upstairs.. she busted her computer. well i was on this one on sparknotes reviewing shit. so i tell her she can use the other computer to check her mail.

so she goes to aol.com to get to her mail cause i don't have aol because i HATE aol. and it's loading slow (it ALWAYS does. she should just get yahoo.) and she starts SCREAMING at it and me.

the baby is downstairs wailing and she's screaming at michael and ryan (OF ALL THINGS!) to take care of her.

and then she starts bitching cause i won't let her use my laptop. but i knew aol wouldn't work any better on here...
and i know how she gets when she is angry. and she probably would have broken this computer somehow or given it AIDS.
like her computer. cause she probably downloads too much porn or something.

and i KNOW she's gonna try to use it while i'm at school tomorrow. which is why i'm going to password protect it and log off. hah.
and my mom just told me i can go to hell and she hates me! perfect! (plus some random swears..)
i'm pretty sure i've been called 90% of the possible swear word combinations there are.

yes, i know that i am almost out.
no, that does not help me right now.
