Assessment Day Rain

Yesterday was assessment day for Huntingdon College. All of the seniors have tests for their major(s) and the underclassmen have surveys about their college experience. It was the perfect day, or so it seems, to be stuck inside doing 4 hours worth of tests. I learned after completing my religion exam that it apparently hasn't been changed in 17 years, and they aren't teaching the same classes they taught 17 years ago. Also, they don't even grade the stupid thing....um, can someone please tell me why we all wasted our time?! My psychology exam was at 1:30, so Brittney and I walked around in the rain until we decided we were hungry enough to leave. The picture above is Brittney "diving" into the pool that we generally use as a walkway when it isn't flooding out. You can't really tell from the picture, but it gets pretty deep...We ate lunch at the Green Papaya, delicious Tai food! Then we hurried off for round two of assessments. Psychology's exam was not made by our professors, it was a sealed standardized test...and it kicked our butts. The school rewards us for wasting our time by giving us all chocolate bars and a free ticket to a movie at the Rave. It was almost worth it.

I went to see Rango that afternoon. It is a pretty cute movie. I love when animated movies make the animals look like their human voice...like Johny Depp as a lizard. It was quite funny. I also love when kids movies get a little slip of propaganda in them, like Wallie with the environment, this was about controlling water. "When you control the water, you control everything." You should go see it.
