Cheat sheet

In a rare occasion the professor is allowing us to bring a cheat sheet to class for a test. At first I though this was great. After all I have a ton on my mind and it would be great to relax a bit and download my concerns on to the paper. I could walk into the class feeling confident, after all I would have a cheat sheet that I wouldn't have to hide.

So I have gotten out my paper and pencil. There is just one problem. Every time I review, I feel confident, everything seems to make sense. I know this stuff... I think. My paper is sitting empty. Which makes me worry, then in turn I study again, and again. Somehow I think this was a cruel study trick. Darn Sociology!

This blank paper is making me crazy. I better put something on it. The test is tomorrow!!! HORROR, and it's not even October yet.

School Days

Everyone here is back at school myself included. Whew! This is my second year attending college full time. I feel alot more confident this time around, so long as it's not the day before a test. I convince myself this is like working and having a family. It's all about balancing everything out some how. So I am trying to carve out a hour to sew, in the midst of everything else. This way I still feel like the creative part of me is satisfied and ready to do the vacuming, studying, cooking. One hour also leaves me more refreshed to be with my family.

I'll keep you posted...
