Praxis I

I had to take the Praxis I (PPST) on Monday at 8:30AM so Sunday my mom, my sister, and my friend Tinisha went down to Eugene, Oregon. Tinisha is from Eugene and she wanted to visit her parents so we dropped her off at her house. Then we tried to find our hotel. It took us three sets of directions, a lot of harsh words, and a few headaches to find our hotel. After we checked in we chilled and played games. Then we went to bed because I had to get up early so I could get to University of Oregon's campus at 8. They wanted me there early to fill out paperwork. So I got up on Monday morning and my mom and I followed the directions that were written down and we ended up on the wrong end of the road! The website for the campus said it was on W 13th st but they ended up being on E 13th st. So after a few calls I finally got the testing center and they were able to give me directions. I finally got there, at 8:30, and the receptionist was really sweet. She could see that I was frazzled so she told me to take my time and breathe before I took the test so I could concentrate on it. I finally walked in a sound proof room with 5 or 6 computers in it that was laced with some heavy duty security cameras and equipment so that didn't make me feel any better. Then, I started the test and I finally calmed down. I thought it was a fairly easy test. At least the reading and math sections were. I got 177 on math and 178 on reading. I only had to get at least 170 so I was SO excited about passing. I don't know what I got on the writing section yet but let's hope and pray that it is over the minimum. I'll keep you updated. My next big adventure is to pack and then I'm off to Idaho. On my way there I'll be stopping to see my dad in Colorado so pray for me to have strength to see him!
