i've read lots of threads about everyone biting their nails to the quick, becoming a nervous wreck, and generally going nuts while waiting for various test result to come back.
let's think of some fun things to do to take your mind off worrying about how many ???s the computer stopped at, etc.
-get reacquainted w/so and kids. :icon_hug:
-take the kids to a movie. or take yourself to a movie. see the one only you want to see. i highly recommend phantom of the opera. don't forget to buy popcorn. :melody: :yelclap:
-go shopping and buy yourself a sexy nightie and surprise your husband. :flowersfo
after taking my exam last october 2 i just pray and pray and enjoy the things that i miss the most while reviewing sch as playing basketball, surfing the internet and hangng out late in the evening... I'm still waitng for my result.. i hope and pray that i pass!
I took a 7 day cruise after PN Clex. By the time I got back I had my results. There is nothing like being surrounded by hot bodied shirtless men with accents to make you forget everything. (I was single then )

took the rn boards today...........i'm so glad it's over with, such a huge weight off my shoulders!
for now, while waiting.........i'm going to do what i always loved to do!
open up my craft drawers and scrappy tools and do some scrapbooking and do some cardmaking with my rubber stamps! i'm a :redbeathescrapbook & cardmaking rubberstamping :redbeathe scrapaholic!!!
Go out and have drinks with your friends! Thats what helped for me after I took it! but I failed so....that didnt wasnt good! But getting drinks at the bar & doing karaoke was a blast & kept my mine off my results!
hi... thanks for this.. i hope this tips might help me manage my anxiety... waiting the result is killing me.. i took my exam last december 2.. gosh.. lots of drugs... hate it... I'm not hoping that i pass.. but I'm still praying and praying and praying that's the only thing that i can do now.. thanks again..aja!!!:wink2:
hi.. i guess waiting for the exam result can make you insomiac hahaha... personally, i have tried to divert my attention to the topic by cleaning the house, hanging in the mall, doing extreme stuff... hehehe. as long as i divert my attention it seems the days of waiting is faster than you think ^^
I love all of the great ideas, since I am a complete bundle of nerves right now I think the practical thing will be for me to clean, then maybe catch up on some TV series that I have not seen in a while. Maybe I can even convince my husband to entertain the kids and I will lock myself in my room, take a bubble bath, and eat some junk food. Wow, relaxation that would definitely be a treat!!
