Leaving in exactly ONE hour to take my Special Ed Exam. I did not do so well on a timed practice exam yesterday. IF I fail, I cannot retake this for 3 months and it messes with the “plan” I am hoping to follow. This is me venting. Currently, reading a definition of something I’ve struggled with (mainly the laws- I keep flopping them around), then rock out to a song I love – repeat cycle.

Also pondering the Serenity Prayer, which always helps me when I feel like I can no longer control what is happening (when I am experiencing an external locus of control- test concept).

Grant me the serenity
to accept the things I cannot change;
courage to change the things I can;
and wisdom to know the difference.

UPDATE: PASSED AND THRILLED. (Scores received this morning)

I am absolutely ecstatic. The exam was tough and I left feeling extremely worried and anxious, those laws! I not only passed, I did well. I am proud and am excited for the next steps.
