Today = Relief

I took the GMAT today. I have been stressing about this stupid test for months. It was one of those situations where I would come home from work and study and study and feel absolutely brain dead. Today marks the end of that feeling!

I am feeling pretty good about my score, I could get into most big schools with it...just not the one I REALLY would like...NYU. So, if I really want to go there I'll have to retake the test, which I'm not going to do for a while, until my life settles down a little bit.

Get this...last night, technically this morning some jerk called my house at 4:00 am! Oh yeah, and they let the phone ring and ring and ring. I should have answered it and yelled at them, but I saw that it was a cell phone and I figured it was some bozo. I googled the cell phone number and nothing came back. Needless to say, that was awesome since I couldn't go back to sleep since I had to get up an hour and a half later for my test anyways....grr...

Meanwhile, when I got home I found this little guy hanging out in my snap dragons.

Finally! Another piece of manna from heaven! There are signs that my flower garden is starting to become healthy!!!! This little guy, on the other hand, was absolutely ticked that I was getting too close to him. He stood up and made hissing/wheezing sounds and started whirring his choppy arms at me. I decided to not bother him anymore and let him do his thing..hopefully eating all sorts of bad bugs!

Ahh the GMAT. Scott took the GRE and it was insane. He never stopped studying, he would even study in the car. It drove me nuts. I was so very happy when he finally took it. Luckily all the studying paid off cause he got into the top school for what he is going into. That is awesome you are getting your Masters. So will you guys be moving out of state??

The studying was no bueno, although I haven't studied for the past month...I was so bad. My life has been crazy-town U.S.A. lately and I really just wanted to cancel the test but apparently you can't get a refund, arg. So...we are moving, but not for a master's degree. :) I still plan on getting mine, but most likely in the future a few years.
