General Knowledge Exams really aren't as scary they're made out to be + Prom Dress?

So... today was D-day for that crazy general knowledge exam mentioned here A total of 6 people showed up to the finalist exams... and 2 scholarships are handed out. That took most of the already-practically-non-existent case of nerves I had off my shoulders.

The questions were a lot more opinion based "why do you want to be a teacher", "what would you do in this case" "show off your knowledge/opinion in an essay" questions, which completely overshadowed the 10 multiple choice questions. Which weren't really that difficult... I had the hardest time with the "What's your greatest accomplishment and why" question... I hate talking about how good I am...

All the questions were surprisingly about stuff that I've recently refreshed myself on, or written a long extensive thing about, or something I've tucked away in my memory because of something important happening. Like there was a question about education and technology. What did I win the Microsoft thing for? And I was talking just the other week to my brother about why the Aztecs all died off... silly Aztecs, lacking their immunity.

Thank God for preparing me for this... :D He really did a great job this time!

After the exam, I went with my mom to go Prom Dress shopping at Pacific Mall. Fun times! lol, we had lunch at Heritage Town (Watami is closed for renos... has been since yesterday) and then went to where I bought my grad top 5 years ago. Still has pretty clothing :P Bought both my dresses there... but you'll have to jump the cut to see. :D



This dress is nicer than you can see in the picture... It all these pretty sparkly beads on the top layer, and it's all glittery on the bottom layer. and it's really comfy. Dad likes this more than the other one (as do i, since it's comfy), but mom likes the other one cuz it's "more chinese". Which is what I was looking for anyways XD



It's also 2 layers, but lacking the sexy see-through the other one has. Apparently it makes me look younger than above, but i have to suck in/lose waistline to fit XDDDD which is problematic... but I am exercising, so I'm sure it'll be good by June.

I dunno which I'm wearing to prom... I guess this depends on my date. WHAT ARE YOU WEARING J-DATE?? XD

And what do you, oh ambiguous reader, think I should wear?

The rest of the day was LOOOOOONG and full of sifting through other clothes. i bought one other thing... and I saw something really cute that would look good on J-date, but I didn't get it, since I didn't know if the colour would work XD

Next time, I guess... maybe J-date will come with that day!
