There are only 47 states.
This was fascinating. I took the test twice and scored almost exactly the same, both times, I started on the west coast and worked my way through state by state, both times freezing up and having a panic attack after naming 47 states in very good time. Stupid tiny squiggly East Coast States. Massachusetts you are dead to me.
I’m thinking I did this for two reasons, I’ve driven everywhere but the Northeastern coast of the United States and I can name states that are big enough to contain their name on a United States map, haha. If a state has to have a little line pointing to it with the name floating over the ocean that state is a fairy-tale-rumor-myth to me. I’ll take you seriously when you are all grown up and your boarder lines straighten out =P.
and that was a glimpse into the jennhoney brain, it’s weird in there. I guess I’m saying I should take a driving tour the fairy-tale-rumor-mythic East Coast. Or look at a bigger map.

I did this today enough times to learn all 50 states. NUTS right? I had no idea Rhode Island was its own state. Also I thought Minnesota was where like Colorado was. For the record, I was perplexed by the, ahem, Twilight series, when they were talking about being in Washington, and then there was all these talks about Seattle and scary vamp armies being so near, and I just didn’t get it, because it was on the other side of the coast.
YEAH I’m an idiot. Also I though Oregon was on the east coast. I managed to learn all 47 countries of Europe too. Next is Asia, Africa and South Africa, and then the world map one. I need to learn, I feel weird and ignorant when I don’t!
