Tests, Tests, and more Tests :(
It’s mid way through spring semester of my junior year. Some people say this is where the fun begins, and others say this is where the torture doesn’t end. LoL Well, I figured out myself that they’re all right. It’s fun, because we’re about to be seniors and we have all this fun stuff to look forward to and to get ready for. It can all be quite overwhelming, but still lots of fun, no doubt. Also, its kind of a pain, because we have all these crazy tests to study for. Not only do we have tests for school, but this is also the time we take the SATs and ACTs. Oh joy, they are so much fun. Just kidding, but will totally be worth it in the end.
So, its kinda exciting for me to take these tests now though. It’s not like they’re really that much fun or anything, but instead I get to take them in alrge print, and am actually able to bubble them in on a scantron myself, but I have to use a CCTV for that though. Regardless, its still a lot of fun knowing how far I have come in the past year. I remember taking standardized tests, and having to use Braille, Audio, Large Print, and what not. It was super exhausting, and now its just large print. It’s so much easier and simplier. I’m hoping this could make a difference in my scores in the end. I’ll defininitely let everyone know in the end how it all turns out for me.
Besides all of that crazienss, I have to start thinking of what I want to do with my life. LoL I don’t even know what I’m going to do tomorrow, nevertheless in the future. Bu i have started to look into possible colleges that I can be looking at and applyin gto next semester. It’s different, since I should consider the tpe of programs they offer for one who is visually impaired Lucily, I won’t need as manyaccommadations as before, so it shouldn’t be as bad, but still somethng to lookinto though.
And for all my tests, I’ve still been using just large print. And for quizzes in math, I’ve gotten really good at doing those in regular print. It’s not as hard, since there isn’t as much to read and stuff. I’ve also gotten better at reading more fluently with my vision, and stuff. I’m happy with the improvements I’ve gotten so far. And for sure looking forward to next doctors appointment I have, and see what they tell me. At this point in time, I have no idea when that’ll be though.
Hope everyone is doing well! I appreciate all the emails that eople have been ending me. I’m so glad to kno that you gys care.Emal me f you jsut want to say hi, have a quetion, or anything else.
