I see a Light!

It's really wierd to think about this year hind sight. The last month has been really crazy. It has gone from really stressful to way less stressful in a matter of weeks. There are two parts of state board that I had to take. The first was the practical, which is all of the hands on technical stuff and I was so very scared for this. Not that I didn't prepare, but I think I can speak for most of us when I say it is just fear of the unknown. Not knowing what is expected so I prepared, maybe even overprepared, so when the time comes and I have to perform and my nerves are completely frazzled, I can still do it and not freeze. So on the practical you get a pass/fail and I passed. Hurray! It was so crazy driving home and thinking it was all kind of a dream. I passed, I really passed. Then came the written, I had taken Miss Evan's tests at school and done pretty well all year, but when I started reviewing the testing booklet, I kinda started getting scared because so many of them I was blanking on, but I did my best and just studied as hard as I could. Both tests were timed and the the written was an hour and a half. I took 35 minutes to do 110 multiple choice. This time getting a 91%. I couldn't believe it and I still can't that everything is in the mail and I am just waiting for my license to come. Oh wait, it's not over yet. Now I get to move to Arizona and take the state laws and also present my Utah license the the Arizona state board, but then I will be licensed in Arizona and Utah. Oh, and I had to get a 90% on Miss Evans final to graduate. Yeah me! I pulled out a 95%!
