The GRE is indeed a soul-crushing standardized test that is a prerequisite for applying to graduate school in America. You pay $150 for the privilege of taking a three hour exam which tests middle-school maths, vocabulary, and whether or not you can bullshit an essay.
I am so incredibly awesome at bullshitting essays, mainly because i can get angry and riled up at the most innocuous question. :)
I'm not even sure about this grad school thing. I want to go, but i don't know what for. I would really like to do a taught MA in the UK on something incredibly esoteric. My mom did the social history of art at Leeds, and read all the stuff i want to read. i'd do that, but I'm just not that into art. I'm looking into Folklore programs though, because i obviously never want to get a job. *groans*
I don't usually get crushes on people very often, and when i do i usually just wait it out and it will go away. This one hasn't yet, and it's very irritating.
The hair... in truth, looks like it could use a wash, but that's probably the photo. Really, there's not much she could do to it that i would have a problem with. I didn't even mind the fringe. I could rhapsodize for a little bit, but i won't, because that would be embarrassing.
