Its Crunch Time.

So I'm back into the world of blogging. I'd have to say that I'm happy to start religiously blogging again, I need a place to throw out all of my thoughts. It's been a long time.

Where to start?

School. We're coming into the last month of school, and It's pretty crazy. Teachers are cramming to cover everything before our government exams start, which means a ton of homework every night, and a lot of tests.

I've seemed to have developed a bit of test anxiety. I actually wrote part A of my English PAT on Thursday. Two hours straight of writing, one short story, and one business letter. I didn't feel very nervous before the test started, but once the supervisor told us to pick up our pencil, I had a sudden shake take over my whole body, and I broke out in a sweat (yuck). I couldn't begin to write anything, because the letter weren't even close to being legible. Incidentally, I sat at my desk, for 25 minutes with my eyes closed, deep breathing, trying to get my hand to stop shaking long enough to bang out my two figures of writing. The breathing seemed to help, and once I stopped and asked the well known question "where am I, what am I doing?" I seemed to be able to calm down instantly. I'll have to remember that next time right off the bat, instead of wasting 25 minutes...

So now, It's a matter of keeping my grades constant until the end of the year, and acing my finals. I'd like to see myself taking a grade 11 biology course next year, so I can't loose focus on my grades, I'm also taking a self-taught course over the summer. I know that all of this is achievable, I just can't loose focus on my goals, and what I want to see happen...

Well, that's all I've got for now.

Thanks For Listening.
