She's going to an out-of-state competition for color guard. Her group performs on Friday night. She hasn't yet taken the ACT; a college she is thinking about suggests taking it twice in her junior year. It's only given two times this spring; one in June, and one on the Saturday after she competes, at multiple places, including a school near the competition site. To us, the solution is obvious.
Not to her. Her thoughts run more to late night performance, even later bed after laughing and hanging with friends, getting up sluggishly the next day, lazing about. Tests? Schoolrooms? Pfah.
She knows that if she balks, I'm perfectly willing to say Fine, you're not going to the competition.
