the PANCE
Okay, so I know it's been forever since I've written, but I need to document today. Not only is it my husband's 28th birthday, but it is the eve of the day we have been dreeeaddddingg.... tomorrow is one of THE MOST IMPORTANT DAYS OF OUR LIVES.
We take the boards tomorrow.
Tomorrow at 8 a.m. we walk through the door and take a 6-hour exam at some random test center in Raleigh. Since Greensboro (where we moved to) is about 90 minutes from the place, we decided to spend the night in Raleigh. Traffic this way is just way too risky and we didn't want to be waking up at 4 a.m. or anything.
I feel like I have to be doubly nervous, for myself and for him. He has been so stressed about the test to the point where he'll forget things we know he knows. We have studied so much for this monster. I'm terrified for myself, obviously. 360 questions on, oh, all of medicine. Plus our employers are banking on us PASSING tomorrow. If we don't, we only have a limited number of chances left to retake it... but I'm trying not to think about that. I'm keeping happy thoughts in my head about this. I don't feel ready at all but hey... all I can do is do my best.
Sigh. I really hope we both pass.
