My HOPEFULNESS involves going to Best Buy tomorrow. My dad says that he may take me tomorrow (if not today) so I can get what I want: a Nintendo DS headset and a Wii Classic controller (because Best Buy always seems to have a stock of Wii controllers, peripherals, and accessories). I will also be buying some Wii Points (around 1000 or 1500) to download Star Fox 64 or something else with. I'll use the DS headset for talking while battling via Wi-Fi in Pokémon Diamond (an awesome new feature) and chatting before a Wi-Fi match in Metroid Prime Hunters. The Classic controller will be used to play The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time, Star Fox 64 (once I download it), Super Mario World (once I download it eventually), and any other SNES and up Virtual Console game. I can't wait to do all this.
I am also finally done with the OAT tests. OAT stands for "Ohio Achievement Test," and I had to take four very long (forty-four questions, about seven of them had short answer/extended response questions), boring, and very time-consuming tests (Reading, Math, Science, and Social Studies in that order). The only one I really had trouble with was the Reading, as the reading in it took a little thought and time and English/Literature isn't my strongest subject (my strongest subject is Math/Algebra). However, after this homework-less week (thank goodness), I'm just glad that it's all over, even though I have to get my Algebra 1 project done this weekend. With the HOPEFULNESS, this has been Mr. Melee (a space in the name now, if you haven't noticed).
