Hi everyone!

Kate, thanks for your insight about aptitude tests (SATs, ACT, PSAT). You certainly have experience with taking tests. I have to admit, the writing portion is my favorite! (I was an English major!) However, I agree there is not enough time to brainstorm or revise your work. Also, the contest winner for August is Kate! You will receive 5 points. We didn't have any other participants :(. Hopefully I will see more people participate in the September contest!

September Monthly Contest: Submit a paragraph to me about what being successful means to you. The winner will receive 5 points and participants will receive 2 points. Please e-mail your answers to CourtneyK@forumcu.com. I will post the winner's answer next month.

This week's question: What did you do over Labor Day weekend? Also, please give me one fact about the federal holiday by researching it online. (Note: Do not use the same fact someone else has already commented about on this blog.)

*Remember to use your first name and login user id to receive 2 points.
