Here goes nothing

[trinityvixen]

As in, here goes nothing extra possibly getting fit into my head before this monster of a test. Previously, I had been quite wrong about my potential for test-taking in this class. This time, I've tested myself with practice exams and my "good" score was still several shades shy of a D. Yippie. It remains to be seen if I'll do as poorly as I'm expecting, if the rest of the class will fall into similar despair, and, if they do, whether the thing will be curved. I wonder if being away from "real" school for so long has made me into more of a grade-grubbing, freaking-out-about-score crazy person, or if I was always like that and the constant grind of studying took the edge off because more tests = less stress for any given test.

Man, I am no good at this school thing. Why do I want to go back again?

This is probably going to reveal to be that person you hated in school, but I'd always panic if I wasn't the first person finished. If someone handed in the test before me, I'd rush through the rest of it. I couldn't help it. I had to be one of the first people out.

Turns out this is still true, as I learned when taking the Red Cross CPR certification test. Teacher's pet says what?
