Okay, it's my turn...

Wednesday I take my state test. I am nervous as all get-out. I have never been nervous as a test-taker, I've always done really well on written tests. So I'm not nervous about that part.

I am scared to death of my skills test. My friend who was in my NA class with me told me that I'm so friendly I'll probably just have a good ol' time and get through it with no problem. But that's actually my concern: when I get nervous, I try to talk. And talk. And try to crack jokes. And then I forget what I'm supposed to be doing.

I also DO NOT like that I don't know exactly what skills (besides handwashing) I will be tested on.

It's two days away and I'm freaking out!

ETA: I just noticed you are in Dayton, OH. I was born there! We lived in Middletown but I was born in a hospital in Dayton.

OMG, girl, I grew up in Middletown! My family moved there when I was 7 and I just moved to Kettering about 6 months ago! What a small world! I graduated from Middletown High School in 1998. My mom and dad still live there with my brother and sister and even though I'm only half an hour away now I really miss it.

We also have the 10 "test" questions on our written test. But my exam results did show what subjects I missed and I did miss the questions I thought I did. Either way -- I passed!

Thanks to everybody for their encouragement and congratulations! It's good to have a community of support - people who know exactly what I'm going through!

Haha! That is crazy! I've never been back (we moved to MN when I was 2)... I'd love to go check it out though. My sister went to Elementary school somewhere in Middletown. She is 11 yrs older than me. I'll have to ask her where she went and see if you know of it.

Take care and again... Congratulations!
