So, I took the FE this past Saturday, and let me tell you, it sucked! We had to get there by 7:15 am. I don’t know what you think, but to me that’s way too freakin’ early for a Saturday morning! And then they checked us all in and read us the bull they always read before you take a test “yadda yadda yadda, don’t cheat, blah blah, etc.”, which wasted a good amount of time. And then the “fun” began for an incredibly long 4 hours of test taking. And then some more bull, take up our test, “no talking about the test, typing about the test, discussing the test, blah, blah, don’t cheat, etc.” And then a wonderful 1 hour lunch break where I could give my poor little brain a rest. And then more fun! Basically the same as the morning session but harder and more mean. So when it was all said and done I got out at 5:35. No, wait, that’s when the test was over, probably didn’t actually get out of there till like 5:50. Boo! So let’s calculate that out, 7:15 to 5:50 minus an hour for lunch = 9 hours and 35 minutes!!!!! Talk about a day full of fun and excitement. (that was sarcasm) But the good news is I’m done with it and if all things go as planned I won’t have to take it again. Hopefully I passed, I think I did, but I don’t really know. I won’t find out for 10-12 weeks either. How suckie is that?
So this Wednesday I’m going to San Antonio! I’m very excited about that. Jackie called me up (or did he text me?) the other day asking me to be his date for this ASME banquet thing. Very exciting! I don’t think he even realizes how much I really enjoy being asked formally on a date with him. We go out all the time, but he never really calls it a date, and since I’m corny and watch too many romantic comedies I like the term date and it makes me feel all warm and fuzzy when I get to go on one with Jackie. So, yay! I’m happy. Plus, its been awhile since I’ve seen him and I miss the boy.
