Today's the big day

I woke up about an hour ago feeling lethargic and anxious. They always say you should get a goodnight's sleep before a big test, well sleeping on my friends living room couch isn't the best possible means for getting a good night's sleep, is it? But that'll do pig, that'll do.

I have 2.5 hours until I have to be at the testing center. I arrived in the magnificent, homely, Denton Texas at 6 and went straight to the UNT library. I know, I know I'm not really supposed to go there since I'm not a student anymore, but hey, there was good tuition money put towards that library and I never took advantage of it while I was in school, so I plan to take full advantage of it afterwards. I'm an alumni of UNT I think I should always have the rights to the library.

I found a hidden study spot on the 4th floor between the Music Scores and Music Books, and proceeded to spend the next 2 hours with my brain in between the annoying pages of my Kaplan GRE book. Which once I decided to take a study break I proceeded to accidently leave at the library in my hidden spot. Around midnight I realized that I didn't have my Kaplan book with me and rushed back to the library in a mad pursuit.

Safely hidden, untouched, tucked away right where I left it. Whew!

Well, nonetheless it was a semi-adventurous evening before my GRE test. I feel confident in my ability in using Kaplan's secret strategies, I feel anxious that this potentially be the first day of the rest of my life, I feel scared. I'm only 21 years old, how did I make it this far so soon? There's 21 year olds that are just getting their high school degree.... How is it that I feel so adolescent yet my brain apparently believes it's not so adolescent. I still need my mother to hold my hand and walk me into my first day of school; I question repeatedly, am I ready for this?
