Wish me luck!

ditto!!

I'm a procrastinator. That, and I'm slightly flaky!

 

[bookworm_cn317]

OK, it's now, like 4-5 days 'til I test, so--
Start wishing me luck, people!!!!

Here's what I'm wishing for you, bookworm: that you wake up on the day feeling great, and feeling invincible, as though everything you turn you hand to will come out great, and it does, and that by the time you get to your test, you're in such grace with the environment, and your classmates and instructors, and your own physical awareness and `body sense' of the techs, and in such perfect balance, that you can do no wrong, and everything seems easy and inevitable, and you're actually sorry when the test is finally over.

Now wouldn't that be better than mere luck? :wink1:

Yes, exile, yes it would.

You'll pass that test with flying colors now, bookworm! Just remember- be calm and think positive, and you'll do it! Don't focus on anyone while you're up there answering questions- I know from my own experience, my brain draws a blank, no matter how prepared I am if I look right at people and answering questions while under some stress...

 

[Laurentkd]

Have you had your test yet?? It has to be any day now right??...

 

[bookworm_cn317]

Have you had your test yet?? It has to be any day now right??...

Not yet. It's this evening! Wish me luck--just in case!

 

[exile]

You let us know the instant you get home, y'hear?!

 

[jim777]

Good Luck!

[Laurentkd]

You'll do great!

Let us know as soon as you can!!

 

[bookworm_cn317]

Before I say anything else, PLEASE put your pitchforks & flaming torches away! OK, now that that has been said, I can tell you what happened, or rathed did not happen! My test has been pushed back a week, which is kind of good for me ('cuz it's FINALS WEEK), so I can study for my finals. So, my NEW test date is May 1. Just keep wishin' me luck, 'K?


:erg:<--- this is me right now

So, you guys stay here and I'm just gonna go hide. In case, you know, you want to throttle me or something.

 

[Laurentkd]

haha!!! no no no, I am just glad YOU are happy about it being pushed back!! That can be very stressful!!! But, now you KNOW you will be totally prepared and ready to go! So good luck next Tuesday!!

The suspense would be killing me, if there were any suspense involved—but there isn't, because I know you're going to ace this thing. So hit those books, and we'll put off our own anticipated celebration of your triumph for a week.

Just make sure to get enough sleep!! Students never get enough sleep! That's why they're always sick...:soapbox:

OK, I'll stop. But you make sure to get enough sleep!

School is always first. If it's better for you, it's better. We're in your corner rootin' for ya. Not pushin' you in a corner waitin' for you to screw up. You're gonna do great. In school first, then in the dojang. :ultracool

 

[Shaderon]

No flaming torches bookworm, we all understand, just don't forget your stuff while you are concentrating on your schoolwork.

I'll echo about getting enough sleep too, a rested mind is capeable of more than a tired one.

Take Care

 

[morph4me]

Do you have any idea of the amount of work I had to do to get the pitchforks and torches out?? And now I have to put them away again!!:tantrum:

Seriously, take care of yourself first, you're shoolwork, and when it's time to test, you can think about that. You have the support of everyone here.

 

[tkd_Jaz]

Best of luck to ya! I know it's hard sometimes to balance school and TKD especially when you are testing. I'm sure you will do awesome though!

What Iceman said - I am always reminding my students that family and school come first - TKD will be there when they're ready.
