Headlights pointed at the dawn.

I'm a 24 25 year old student and this blog is about my adventures as I go back to college and do my best to love each day.

Test anxiety

I finished my test for anatomy - my chemistry test for anatomy, about 20 minutes ago. I finished a good 15 minutes before anyone else, and as I sat here at a picnic table outside, i can feel the doubts mounting as I wait for class to pick back up again. I only had 4 questions I didn't know straightaway, I checked all my answers twice, and still I am beginning to wonder if I messed up royally. When I turned in my test, my professor asked me if I had skipped a few pages - I was like nope, and I checked all my work!! He just sort of looked at me like he was disapppointed I didn't take more time.

I've been like that for as long as I can remember - nearly always the first one finished with an assignment or test, teachers and professors always annoyed until they figure out that it's how I operate. I just hope I wasn't over-confident today, it would suck to have turned it in so early and not do well. But I didn't rush it, I took my time, I'm just that fast I guess!

Got my short-short story back, in creative writing, the professor really liked it. He only crossed out one line and said that it was more powerful without it in there - he had a point. Said the rest was great. Still debating whether or nontoxic post it here because it is so personal. We'll see.
