learning that it really isn't about me...and maybe that defeats the purpose of this.

TAKS is treacherous.

WRITING TAKS is tomorrow. TOMORROW. 
 I'm going to kill myself. 
 
Now, don't get me wrong. I LOVE writing. But, hand me a prompt and I'll freeze up. I hate TAKS day, everyone is so stressed out and the teachers are EXTRA serious. 

If your phone goes off in class,  another student could sue you. If  you ask someone if you could  borrow their eraser, your test will be marked "OTHER" and will not be graded(you'll get a zero). 

 At Fort Settlement, they do not accept 1's and 2's. We are  a "commended performance" school  meaning, ONLY 3's and 4's. 

My friends and I made up a song about TAKS today. 

    Ok...here goes. 

  TAKS is coming up tomorrow,  bet  your bottom dollar that tomorrow, kids will be crying (with carpal tunnel). Just think of day, thats GAY(happy) and SUNNY. I'll stick out my chin, with chagrin and say ohh.... TOMORROW, TOMORROW, I'll still hate TAKS tomorrow and it's only a day away!!

        My teacher let us sing it in class. There's also a dance to go with.

Mer - You're going to do fine. Remember EVERYONE in the whole state of Texas takes the TAKS test.

I'm not worried about you one bit! You're a FANTASTIC writer. Just pretend it's a blog entry! Except with correct grammar and all that stuff. And don't use the word "stuff" like I just did. =-) OK, maybe don't pretend it's a blog entry.

Still, I'm not worried. Can we say "break a leg" about a test? I think so.

Break a leg, Merbear!
