Hello. May I be the first to say that I am glad that it is Friday. I am so tired. I'm going home and I am not leaving my house until Sunday morning to go to church. I am spending time with Sprite. Well, my exams are finished. There were not very good, but at least they are over. I don't care to talk about my English one, but I am going to share about the other one. It struck me as strange. To start off with the exam was on Wednesday. Connie got a call about 8:30 to go to the hospital so she had to leave. Ash was gone, and Shannon was working so....you can guess what happened with the baby. I didn't mind though. I felt bad for Connie. She called me and ask if I was caught up enough to watch him......I wasn't. I still had to finish my paper/project that I just started about 30 minutes before she called then I had to study for the exam itself. She had to go, I mean she got the call. So, I really didn't mind. I had Landon asleep by 10:30 and went back to working on my paper. I email my teach to let him know what happened and that I would be late for class, try two hours late, but I would be coming. After I finished the paper I still had to study. I did some, but I was so tired I fell asleep. I did good I build my bridge. So.....I was two hours late for the class. When I walked in I thought I would be okay on the exam.....WRONG!!! It was 21 questions that required ESSAY answers! I freaked. I froze. I lock completely up. Then I cried. Of, course not where anyone could see me. I couldn't remember anything. I prayed and prayed and still couldn't remember. I remember saying, "God, why are you not helping me to remember????!!!!!" Then, during the exam.......I get a text message. Then, I get phone call. Then, I get another phone call. My teacher looked at me and laughed and said "you are a very busy person today, do you need to take that?" Thankfully, there was only two in the class and the other person was finished with their exam. So, then finally after a very harsh 2 hours, I turned in my test. I was drained and I still had to give an oral presentation. So, we started our presentation. My teacher looked at me and told me I was very gifted in speaking in front of people. He told me I had a natural talent for it and all I lacked was the confidence in myself that I could do it. He said that it was like a professional standing up there. Who would have thought? Me? I am still not sure it was me giving that presentation. I got the highest grade he could give on the presentation, which was an A and the number was 100. So, then he talked to me and gave me back my exam after class. Anyone care to guess the grade? Try a 57. Yep that is right. He told me that he was confused because everything on the exam......I covered in my speech and did a wonderful job explaining it, but missed it all on the test. Go figured, right? He told me that every time I came to take a test in that class I was a completely different person and once the test was over my true personality came back. I have a split personality? I guess it is test anxiety. So, I have 15 more months of school and 15 more months to go through this test stuff. So, what do I do?
Anyway......it is time fore me to go rest and you all have listened to me complain enough. I hope you all have a wonderful weekend. I am going to rest. My body has said enough! Later. Love you all.
