Jan. 8th, 2006 02:48 pmOkay, I am officially the stupidest person ever.
You know how my PRAXIS exam was supposed to be today? How I'd been walking around all this time saying it was today? Well. It was yesterday. And I missed it.
I have no idea how this happened. I've looked at the date many times, Ryan had looked at the date, and yet we both have been thinking for weeks that it was today. I am generally obsessively vigilant about things like this, to the point of checking and re-checking and...I really don't know how this happened. I feel so stupid, and I told everyone - including my mentors at the high school, who sent me home a little bit early on Friday so I could study - that it was today and I am going to feel like such a loser telling everyone what happened. It was a stupid, expensive mistake since I have to pay to take it again now.
I was all ready and everything. Ryan has been helping me study. I had my three sharpened pencils and my admissions ticket and my water bottle, and I was 15 minutes early, I even brought a little clock in case there wasn't a clock in the room. AND IT WAS THE WRONG DAY.
I just registered for the March exam, the one I didn't want to take because it will be only a couple weeks before my comprehensive exams and in the middle of my practicum at the elementary school.
I am so depressed about this. I know it seems dumb, and I know there are bigger problems for me to be feeling depressed about right now... but I am not the girl who misses her exam. I am the girl who goes and passes it even though she doesn't feel confident about it. And I really, really wanted this over with.
