haha, same. but i really hope utada's album does well this week! can't believe how fast time went.

[cosmeticmusic]

This is a bit sad, but since I already bought TITO on iTunes, I'm more excited for the Japanese single than the TITO physical release.

I get out early this day too, but I'm planning to skip 6th period to get there earlier since it is pretty far.

[mcluva420]

[JackieRos]

[Polyrhythm]

^REALLY good eye....seriously...it took me like 3 plays before I saw it...plus the quality aint that great (even on HQ)

[mangoo_x3]

if i skip 6th period then ill be able to get out of school at 11am. should I skip 6th period? If I don't I'll get outta school at 1:30pm and I want to get my CD SIGNED!

[pommy48]

haha thanks~ yeah the HQ doesn't really change anything~ XD

[Amrai-chan]

Okay so I've never been to this type of thing. If I go to San Fransisco what time should I get to Best Buy? It says Thursday? I thought it was Wednesday?

I might have a ride... cross your fingers...

[emi♡]

^I want to go with you! But every day it looks more and more grim that I might not be able to go at all

So if you can go on your own, that would be great for you <3

Anyway...this is for xheartstation...I'm too lazy to send a pm lol

Spoiler:

You're taking the Composition test yes? The one thing they will really focus on, is how good a writer you are. Your variance in sentence structure, how well you can transition between ideas, if you can make good connections, and if you have a strong grasp of rhetoric and understand how to use it.

Spelling mistakes occur, they know that...they're more looking at how well your grammar is with all the things I said above.

And one last thing, MOST DEFINITELY review ALL of your literary terms...they will expect you to know and completely understand words and phrases like alliteration, allusion, apostrophe, parallel syntax, conceit, hyperbole, etc. There will be, should be, many questions asking you to identify this or that in a text.

anyway...yeah, I really want to know when the event starts...

has anyone checked the ratings at different sites for the SF best buy? apparently, the customer service and staff there are awful

[Polyrhythm]

^LOL thanks emiko! Basically what my teacher says...I'm most worried about time to be honest...I always take too long to read but Im starting to learn to pace myself better. I'm also worried about the essays...I doubt I can poop out 3 quality essays in the time they give us but w/e...I'll cross my fingers x_x
