I complain too much.

First of all, it is back to unbearable, humid, hot weather. It's OCTOBER. It shouldn't be happening to me. I'm used to walking along the sidewalks with dried, orange leaves everywhere, feeling the cool breeze as I smell the nice, autumn air.
The day before yesterday, it was extremely muggy, and rained, and the next day, it was STILL humid! After it rains, the world is supposed to feel better. Not here.
I must find time for math, piano, violin, and homework. Unfortunately, I want to do at least an hour per day of the first three, but I'm not sure if it's possible. Plus, I procrastinate for hours each day, and I'm typing this. I sound just like any other stereotypical Asian- math, classical music, homework, parents who are never satisfied...

I took the PSAT yesterday. The first and third parts were critical reading. I did all the problems because I wanted to know how low my score would go if I answered everything. I'm obviously not a junior... The second and fourth parts were awesome. Math, of course. The fifth part was surprisingly easy, compared to how this one guy described it. I probably failed it anyways. The person next to me kept finishing amazingly quickly, but I later found out that it was because he didn't know any of the answers. He probably got a better score than me on the critical reading, though, thanks to the 1/4 point deduction for each incorrect answer, so you can't get lucky.

One more week until the strings concert! Being concertmaster gives you a nice feeling of power. It's happy, unlike a lot of the rest of my days here.

And now, I'm about to start on more past math tests in my study book. Notice how I said "start". You can infer from this that I can't actually finish any of the tests, being too stupid to understand how to add logs with different bases... *sigh*
