ISATs are something that I've never been quite able to form an opinion on. I don't mind taking the tests actually. It's just that I finish a lot earlier than everyone a lot so the time sitting there after it's over is annoying and drawn out. I remember one time in fifth grade we had passes for going to the bathroom and our teacher was completely fine with us just taking a pass and leaving. During the ISATS however apparently we weren't supposed to and I got yelled at for leaving even though I'm not quite sure I understand why because it's not like I can go in another classroom and compare my answers with someone else. Standardized testing is slightly ridiculous in my opinion because it's purely measuring your memory, not what you learned. Of course you can remember how to do a math problem but it doesn't mean you're always going to know and fully understand why you're doing it. However, it's possible that my opinion is biased because I really hate taking standardized tests and waiting around for everyone to be done when it seems that it takes some people 2305897325 hours. So thanks for reading my rant guys, I had a lot to say about this. Also I have one more thing to speak of. CELEBRITY APPRENTICE. I love that show so much. It's basically a bunch of celebrities that are put onto two teams and then given a task, usually associated with raising money for the charity of their choice and one person gets fired a week. I like LaToya Jackson, she's my favorite this season. Okay i'm done.
Suggested list of things that make me happy? Alright. Hot chocolate on a cold day. Seeing people I haven't seen in a long time. Warm, soft bagels with peanut butter on them. When people are so passionate about something and they start talking about it and their voice gets really happy and they start talking really fast. Chipotle. Shamrock Shakes. People that enjoy what they do. Puppies. Not cats. Tumblr. Waking up to a nice text. My friends. I could list so much more but nothing comes to mind. Ultimately I love a lot of things and a lot of things make me happy.
