More hours in the day!

I need more hours in the day. Doesn't everybody? Just more time to work, more time to relax, more time to sleep. An extra four hours would be great.

I'm working on an application for a journalism workshop in DC. Hopefully, I'll get in because  I really want to do this. For some reason though, writing about something I'm passionate about is a lot harder than writing about something I'm not. Example: I had to write an essay to get into the top high school in the nation. That school is really into math and science and I'm not, but I was able to write an amazing essay about why I wanted to go there. And I got in! But I didn't go in the end because I seriously didn't want to be there. Now I really want to go to this journalism workshop, but I can't find powerful enough words to say it in!! Does that ever happen to you?

Anyways, the Columbia College Chicago Young Writer's Contest ends on Friday. If you want to enter it, get writing. The info is in the "One Down..." post.

Today, we got our PSAT scores back. I've been waiting for those forever, and for once I got a relatively good score on the writing section. I don't know what it is about me and standardized tests, but on the writing sections, I never get as high of a score as I want to. The PSAT score wasn't bad, not bad at all.

Alrightee, must go back to studying for two tests tomorrow. C ya!
