I had a very stressful day of my life yesterday.
I woke up early without alarm and started studying with hoping this is the last day.
Wrigley came up to my bed and snuggled with me.
The coffee is very sweet and woke me up.
Linda told me I need more confidence to take a test and to become a nurse.
I strongly agreed with her.
My feeling has been numb since I postponed the test last week.
I wished I could spend more time with Jeff but we both had a busy morning
He kissed me and wish a good luck on my test by the station.
I went outside and it was very cold which made my feet with double socks frozen immediately.
In the train, I was doing anki and noticed that I can't even read any letters
I arrived at the testing center 3hrs earlier so decided to go to Starbucks which has only 8chairs by the windows and very loud workers
I decided to study for a while then the girl sat next to me and opened NCLEX practice tests.
We both are so nervous and now it's one hr before the test. We both stood up and went outside of the Starbucks. She told me she has to call somebody so I headed to testing room by myself.
I really wanted to call Lizzy. But also I was afraid of crying before test so I haven't told her my test date.
I waited for 30min in the waiting room then finally the lady called my name. She took my finger prints, palm prints and pic of my nervous smile.
I went to the testing room which all computer was separated by the little wall so you can't see the person next to you. There was instruction part which took 5min counting for my testing time. Then it finally started.
After 80 questions or so, I had the first break. I went to bathroom requiring the key to get in.
I looked at my face with pink cheek from hot room and told the girl in the mirror
"I can do this"
Back to the room and started taking questions again.
After 3.5hrs since starting the test, I got the second break
Now I had been taking about 150 questions.
I just wanted to finish.
After break, my mental got messed up and needed to stop taking questions for a while
Now I am on 200 question.
Last time I looked at the number was two hundred something.
Then the test suddenly shut down and led me to answer all surveys.
I was the last one
When I went out of the room, there was another guy who took the test and finished right before me.
We talked and went to a coffee shop
I needed to calm down
I finally had somebody who I can talk about nursing stuff.
Then I met Linda and she asked me how I did
I answered I had no idea
But I really had a feeling I failed.
Anyway, we went home after a little Miata needed my push t o get out of snow pile.
Then we ate Indian dishes which made me so full and happy
I was waiting for Jeff to come back.
When I tried to sleep, I couldn't at all.
I heard Jeff went to his room after 2am
I started to listening Pandora radio with my eyes close after solved three hard level sudoku
The old good days flashed back to me.
It started Lizzy's saying
"Do you wanna go basketting ?"
I had no idea the basketting means but just figured out it's kinda like a picnic
We went to the park in Cedar city, UT and put blanket on the field by the river.
We laid down and Lizzy started to turn on the pandora radio
Then, I remembered when I visited her in Vegas, she took me the park by the lake and we did same thing
We did 3-4times after she moved to Vegas
Suddenly my time tripped right before pinning ceremony.
I didn't get the grade I am supposed to on ATI
Automatically I called her and told her about it with crying while I was walking in the campus
I felt so stupid and don't deserve to become a nurse
she said
"You are gonna be a amazing, caring and the best nurse.
You are smart and I always respect how you made this far with your language barrier
NCLEX is the real test you have to worry about
I love you and really wish I could cuddle with you"
On the pinning ceremony, she came with her friend, Angel to my pinning ceremony to pin me!
On the stage when it was about time to pin me, she said
"You fucking made it, I respect and love you"
I couldn't stop crying during her pining me
I haven't talked to her for a month just because I am afraid of disappointing her
I hope I can call her tomorrow and tell I pass
or just tell her I fail
Either way, I will call her ... if I am alive haha
Anyway, I was crying in the bed all by myself and it was already 4am
I just started missing her so bad
I woke up this morning around 9am
Wrigley jumped on my bed like usual
I feel calm by seeing her innocent face.
I feel so lazy so decided today, I become a lazy ass.
