I'll see you in the ICU!

oh holy hell

I'm so sick to death of all this crap, already.

I'm done with the Kaplan review, and I think my scores went up slightly, but I'm still only marginally passing according to them.

I've scheduled to take the test, which is funny.

When you sign up, there's a calander and I was stupidly thinking..oh, I'll take it next week, toward the end of the week. HAH. Every test day is taken and full!

I was hoping to take it friday or saturday (the 27th, or 28th) so I was looking into what those days mean, in numerology (getting stupid and supersticious for a moment)

According to one source, 9 stands for Completion which I thought "hell ya, complete this and get on with my life, already!" but 10 means Rebirth. I was thinking Rebirth is probably more apropos: like a phoenix arising thru the ashes of a destroyed architecture career, rebirth might work out well.

But, sadly, the San Fran testing site seems to be booked out until September some time (crap!) so I had to change to the Oakland site.

I was lucky enough to snag a day of personal significance, August 8th.

8 has always been my lucky number, or rather my favorite number. I always wanted to make a soap-box racer with my brother and we had decided on 88 as our number because if it flipped over, it's still 88

Silly? :)

Ok, how's this: I had my first date with my hubby on August 8th, 1988.

We consider that a more important anniversary than our actual wedding. We love that this accentally happened on this day...neither of us knew until the following day.

So, For now, I'm scheduled on Augst 8th, and this works for my supersticious side because the number 8 (八 in Chinese) stands for sudden fortune, prosperity. Which would certainly be true, if I pass.

So, on the 8th, wish me some luck, send me your smarty pants vibes, and in general, keep your fingers crossed for me

All 8 of them :)
