Running out of Time

Another test, another score. Today I took another CAT exam but I got a lazy with my studying since my last test. In hopes of expediting my studying, I think I took it prematurely for scheduling purposes as well. During the test I could tell it wasn't a good one (but I think that every time I take one) so I wasn't really surprised I got a 540. The aim was to build on the 560 and move into the 600's so now I have to put more hours into my studying and more than they suggest. The surprising thing about this test was my Integrated Reasoning section. There are 12 questions and usually I only get to question 6, maybe 8 if I'm lucky. Today I saw ALL the questions!! Of course time ran out on the last question but the point is that I actually saw all of them. The even more surprising thing was that out of the 11 questions I answered, I got 10 of them RIGHT!! I could not believe it. Usually I get like 2 or 3 right but this time was different. In this test my math sort of went back to what it was in the beginning so I need to review my stuff. My verbal was great once again so in some ways the test wasn't completely horrible. 

Other than my test, I finished yet another book series, The Archers of Avalon. 



I was a little hesitant to finish it because I honestly believed everyone I liked was going to die but in the end only one person died so I was ok with that. The series on a whole seemed like one long book that the publishers split up into 3 books. There was literally no time passing between the books which is usually a good thing like in the Hunger Games, but in this one it just seemed weird. Yesterday I got my eyebrows done for the first time. Speaking of The Hunger Games, the new trailer for Catching Fire is so exciting. 



Today I started the process of getting all my documents for Pace University so I have some things to take care of tomorrow. As I follow/stalk Pace on every platform possible, I already feel like I go to school there which is really exciting. 


I really don't know what it is about Pace that I really love or if its just the fact that its in NY :) It's really starting to dawn on me that if things go as scheduled, I'll be heading of to Canada in a couple weeks. I've thought of this in the way that I have to really do a lot of work but not in the way that I need to find clothes to wear!

After buying so many clothes for Barbados weather, I barely have anything for Canada weather. I have no idea what kind of coat I'm supposed to have so I'll practically be going in blind and feeling it out day by day. I found this coat on Macy's website that I think will work.


I already have Claire's (sister) snow jacket and boots so I just wanted something lighter for the days when its not so cold. I have a bunch of sweaters and my new pair of boots. I actually saw another pair that I want which will complete my shopping (hopefully).

With that note its about time I get to sleep. I exercised this evening which has left me sore and tired, feeling I haven't felt since my last dance class :(. Its time to sleep and rest and all that jazz and start fresh tomorrow.
