"College Level" words

Thu Apr 16, 2009, 7:59 AM
Ok, so I've had this rant thing for awhile and I'm sick of having a journal from Thanksgiving
so here we go

I bought this book for the ACT to help me study for it
and I do think it helped because I didn't think it was so hard
and I was reading the tips for the writing section and to get a level six the book said to use college level vocabulary
in their tips they showed a level 4 essay and how they boosted it up to a six
one of the ways they made it a six said (word for word)
"We varied sentence structure and added more college-level vocabulary ("strives," "laughable," "intervened," and "suppressing")."

What
The
Heck?

That's college-level? I've been using half of those words since 6th grade or something. And what would they call words like "albeit" and such things like that? Are those "professor-level" vocabulary or something?

I mean, it's ridiculous

OH!
I bet my bottom braces off today! I already have my tops off, they feel weird.
And then I'm getting my dress measured to be taken in, so that's gonna be done
AND THEN I'm going to the mall with some people
and maybe homework when I get done

and FRIDAY is movie day. The group's going to see Knowing and then go to Dairy Queen. I'm gonna film it of course, look on Facebook or something when I get unlazy

and then SATURDAY is Sweeney Todd day, we're finally going to Amvets to get stuff

The SIMS 3 is coming out in June or something
I really want it but I doubt my computer would be able to take it
I'll have to see after Alex gets me that hard drive and I get SIMS Apartment Life
of course, it's about 50 bucks so I'm not buying it until it's cheaper either...

For those of you that don't know, we got a puppy
she's adorable
She's an Aussie-Rotwiler (yes, that's spelled wrong) mix and she doesn't have a tail so when she gets excited she tries to make up for that fact and her butt vibrates

My parents watched this thing on Oprah about predators on the internet yesterday
I'm screwed because then they get all "EVERYONE SHE TALKS TO IS EVIL! AAAAAAAH!"

The fact that Pandora's really popular makes me laugh, my dad introduced me to it in 6th grade
it's like Twilight! Where I got into it before anyone else!
But I hadn't used Pandora until recently, so whatever

I could actually go on, don't know why I don't do a journal more often
but I'm not
tootles!
