Ow. My head hurts. Just finished my test.

It's going away now, but when I first left the classroom I had one heckuva tension headache.

BUT, I think I passed. There was only one 10-point question that I'm not too confident about my answer on, but I know another student in the class felt that question and the one before it were both really hard and *he* has several years more experience in C than I do.

I ended up staying up until nearly 4 last night doing homework/practice problems (I couldn't sleep), then pretty much all of the day was spent working on my "cheat sheet" (a permitted 8.5x11 double-sided sheet of paper). I first did a hand-written one, written in close to 6-point font. But when I had 2 hours left before class, I decided to try typing them up. Using Adobe Illustrator, I was able to get about 3x the examples on one side of the paper, thus fitting all the examples I needed for my cheat sheet. And typing every function/program/example in to the computer gave me even more practice, so by the time the test came around I was doing better confidence-wise. I may not fully understand *why* some of the functions work the way they do or why they were used that way, but I could parrot them back.

Long story short (too late ), I think I did well on it, much better than I expected to do, and hopefully I'll still feel that way when we get them returned. And maybe he'll even curve.

I'm going to go let my brain finish melting now. Thanks bunches for the good luck PD!!

What a relief to have it over and done with. I was thinking of you shortly after 4 today, writing your test and wondering how it was going. Now go take a well deserved break!

Survivor's on tonight (yay!) and I have a nice book I'm reading (yay!) and we have a jaccusi (sp?) tub now (yay) which is calling my name for after Survivor and dinner.

If I can keep from it, I'm not doing *any* strenuous thinking tonight

So glad to hear you made it through your test Tammi, and especially since you think you did well on it. Go enjoy your relaxing evening that you so deserve now

 

[catsrule]

yay for Tammi! Just thinking about your test gives me a headache. Hope you did well!

Glad it is over and you feel good about it. That is always a great way to walk out of a test.

I'm ready to go curl up with my book now. But I had to check the DIS first, of course!

Three of us have spent the evening wet, though -- I decided it was time to give Blaze and Skye a bath. They were both in need of one (for allergens) so I decided to try it. By myself. They were very well behaved, though -- only tried to escape three times each

It was a good alternative to hard mental stuff, though

It sounds like an adventure.

Enjoy.

Maybe you'll have the highest grade and be curved to 100. I understand the kind of headache you have/had, too well. Good luck.
