Sick and trying to study
« on: November 06, 2014, 04:10:30 pm »
I've been knocked down by a bad cold that became a combined tonsil/ear/sinus infection over the course of the last week, and I have to take a really important job certification test on Tuesday that I can't reschedule.

I can't focus on just resting, because I need to study, and being so sick is making studying very difficult.  And the thought of failing the test is just terrifying in every aspect I can think of.

I don't even know what to ask for, healing or peace or help studying.
If I wake in the morning I only need two more miracles to be a saint.

Good luck! I know your feels. I'm still getting over a cold and I've got coursework + extracurriculars to fight through. You'll make it through!

Thank you so much.  I hope you're doing better, and that your endeavors are going well.  I had you in my thoughts too.

:D  I passed my test!  And I'm on the mend.  Everything's going much better!

Ohhhhhh.....that sucks. As someone with a history of chronic sinus and ear infections, I hear you.

I'm getting a nudge from Sarasvati too, though, so I think she's got her eye on you. That's a good thing for this. ;)
KARMA: You keep using that word. I do not think it means what you think it means.

Derp. I was too late. Well, Sarasvati's still got her eye on you.

Thank you! From everything you've said of Sarasvati, I've been curious about her. She sounds lovely. :) Perhaps I should explore more deeply. Can I PM you for resources?

Sure! I'll probably be PMing YOU. :p I have lots to share.

Or you could just search "Sarasvati" here on the forum and look through the threads. Most of it will be my stuff...

Heh.  Well, it turns out that I was told that even after passing my certification, it doesn't really matter unless I take 4 more hours of science.  So I guess I'm not done with my formal education.  Again.

Hang in there. I have two more years to go.
