Yeah for me!

So I went to Cedar City a little over a month ago to test my brain to see if I can be considered "Highly Qualified" to be a teacher. Can anyone say stressed!! So I took the test, went and ate pancakes with the family, drove over to Bryce Canyon and checked into to Ruby's Inn. My cute little in-laws met us over there and we swam in the pool, ate Connie's scrumtrulesent treats, and took the windy,cold drive into the canyon!! So much fun after the stress of finals and getting ready for the praxis test.

I have now had to wait a whole month to hear the results. They tempt you into calling and giving them more of your precious money by offering your results four days early early over the phone but you have to pay$30 more. STUPIDS!! Anyway, I waited, very impatiently, by the way! I woke up this morning at 7:03 and was instantly up, out of bed, and out to the living room for the trusty lap-top. Dear God, please let me have passed this dumb test. As the computer booted up I felt a little nausea pass over me and Chad laughed at me a little bit. He couldn't understand what I was so worried about because he just knew that I had passed. I wasn't so sure. I was having flash-backs of the test questions and how I felt as I was answering them. I was worried.

So the whole two minutes of logging into my praxis account and the download time for the results, I was picturing my summer vacation being full of praxis study books. Please, NO!! It opened and I let out a scream!!! I got a 174 out of 200 and you have to have a 150. OH SWEET RELIEF!!! Thank you God for being so faithful to me. I can now go on to the next level of my teaching program at USU.
