Hell Week Take 32418niner29783
This week seems to be absolutely awful for most people I know. Within the past two weeks it seems like everyone has had at least three tests, this first round of exams is always a doozie. I, however, am halfway done! My test this morning was more difficult than I thought (I studied some of the wrong stuff.. typical.) I have my two hardest ones on Thursday night-so say a prayer for me! But that means only three full days of absolute hell and then I will be free! (at least until Monday when I have.. wait for it.. a practical) it just never ends. But the other day I was talking to Phil and he offered some great insight which I am borrowing and sharing with the rest of you. Sure, right now, as we take our tests we fret about grades, working, volunteering, etc. all to prepare us for the future. Don't get me wrong, this stuff is important and I worry a little too much about it most of the time. But in the long run, as long as I have a husband and kids that love me, friends that trust me, and a family that I can always count on, who really cares if I got a C on my Chemistry or Biology test sophomore year of college. As long as I can make at least one person a little happier each day, who cares if I don't live in a big, fancy house, or take trips to Mexico, or have trendy clothes. It's about time all of us start living for right now because the world could end tomorrow if that's what God decides, he is the big man you know. So my advice for the day (which I probably won't take until after my tests are over anyways) is to not fret about grades but embrace the learning experiences. The only thing that really counts is love anyways so love as many people as you can with all the love you have because they'll remember that about you, not what grade you got on your last test. This all probably has to do a lot with the fact that I am stressed and trying to calm myself down but I honestly believe it and I hope you do too!
