The GRE rendered me impecunious.

I took the GRE. I did well. Quite well. Very well. In verbal. I figured after all this time, I’d know how to read, and it turns out I do. Booyah, motherfuckers.

My quant score was decent though I don’t expect be invited to study at MIT any time soon.

While procrastinating, I found this old picture of me from 1996.

After I took the GRE, the guy proctoring the exam said that he'd "never heard anyone laugh" like I did during the exam. That was the math section. I hadn't taken a math class since high school, basically 20 years.

Yeah, I giggled when I got three questions in a row about standard deviations and my brain was all BWHAHAHAHWHATSTHAT?!
