Math, Math, Math, and Math...

So, there's a math competition this Tuesday (11/13/18), the day after Veteran's Day called AMC 8. I haven't really gotten much preparation, and I promised to get at least top 5% which is around 19/25 or above. They get harder and harder each year. because you can practice with the past tests, so they have to get harder and harder. I did 3 AMC 8 practices yesterday, and so far I have done 3 today, and I'm supposed to do 6 tomorrow. I've been getting decent scores, but I did the earliest one (1985) and I got like a 23/25, which is pretty good but it's much easier. Since I've done 2017, 2016, 2015, and 2014 before, the latest I can do is 2013, which I just did and got an 18 out of 25. It's not very good, but it's okay. I can hopefully get top 5 percent, because I promised that for me to go to Florida. They're 40 minute tests, so it's pretty time consuming. I really am hoping to get a good score. This is a very short blog, and I'm basically just talking about my boring day. I'm gonna talk about what I did yesterday. So, I woke up and I realized I hadn't finished my Chinese homework, I worked on it, and I thought 3 hours would be enough, but it wasn't. So my Chinese class started at 10:30 A.M., and I didn't finish it until 10:32 A.M. So, then I went there and finished class at 12:30, and then I went home to eat. Then I did a bunch of AMC 8s, and waited for my dad to come home. The next day I woke up, and did a bunch of AMC 8s, then I went to Piano class and came home and did even more math. Too much math! I spent 4 hours doing math, which is 1/6 of a full day. Now, it's Monday, and I actually ended up doing 6 AMC 8s yesterday, and I probably will not be able to do 6 today because I'm going ice skating.
