Exams!

Exams!  i have been studying for my exams.   I hvae not been studying for the physical agility test tomorrow.  I am just going to see how it goes and take  it as a learning experience.  There are over 200 applicants for this job but i am still giving it a shot.   I think i can pass this one but i am not sure yet…we will see soon enough.

The written exam is a huge question mark.   Most of the places i have looked into for a job have sort of hinted what the test might be made up of.  I have 3 books and am not sure what the heck to study for so I overloaded.   I wont get my feelings hurt if i dont pass the physical part tomorrow.   If I dont pass then I dont get to take the written on Saturday.  The good side to that is that I can quit studying on Friday.  i dont plan to quit studying all together but I get my keys to my new house on Friday and would like to unpack this weekend.  i might be distracted right now.  I just go with the flow.

Facial Exam-  i take this on Friday morning.   i  took this over 10 years ago so refreshing myself on all this stuff has been interesting.  Lots of things have changed in 10 years in teh facial industry.  i am afraid my books might be out of date but like anything else i am just jumping into this and testing to find out if i even need to get the new book.  i have given some facials and i have not forgotten much but it is a state test so you never know what pass/fail rule might get me.  I have lots of info on this test and have forgotten a good bit of it.   i am tryingt to cram in relearning this book in 2 days.  i was in school for 1600 hours to cover this book.  Parts of it are goofy but oh well.

Training-not sure if I should have trained hard today but I did.  i did some mile repeats on the treadmill, worked out with my trainer, and did a long swim, .  I also came home and gave some massges then went and got my treatments from the chiropractore.  i am back in action and feeling good.  I am feeling like the break did me some good.
