Kricket. It’s been 24+ hours since I’ve received my FAR score. And I’m still feeling sorry for myself. I know everyone is allowed to have a day. But I feel like it’s lingering. I’m supposed to be studying and I’m sitting here sulking and crying. I can’t snap out of it. I can’t stop thinking about it. I can’t stop checking my score as if it is going to change.

I’m not asking for sympathy. I’m asking for the ragin’ cajun to come out of her box. Seriously. I really wish I lived closer so you could just scream in my face, maybe smack me around a little. Again, I need some tough love.

Bring it on.

You asked for it!

What are you doing on this forum? Why aren't you reading, writing or working problems? Stop whining, put on your big girl panties and get to work! Are you really going to let a test score ruin your attitude, squash your dreams and basically destroy your day? NO! You aren't because I won't let you. This is just a test. It is not a measure of who you are as a person. It's a freaking number! That's all! You know this stuff already so go review it and then go pass the test. A 74 is a reason to get pissed as hell and get revenge. I've been up since 6:30 this morning, listening to Jeff's lectures and cleaning my house. Don't waste one minute of study time. So, off your a$$ and on your feet!

She's back in the box now. I completely understand where you are coming from. It's a dark place in the depths of hell. I'm right there with you. When my son died 18 years ago, I learned about the 7 stages of grief and I never thought I would have to go through them again but I have with this exam. I am so mad right now that I could scream. I've passed all four tests and have no license. There is no one to blame but me so in all honesty, I'm mad at myself. Good Luck and if you want to friend me on facebook, I'm Kricket Mitchell.

Thanks Kricket. You rock. Seriously. I am going to read this every day.

Sorry to hear about the loss of your son. 🙁 I have no words. But you have my deepest condolences.

Tried to friend you on FB but I couldn't find Kricket Mitchell?

I'm not cool like “ragin cajun” but I'm sorry you're feeling down. I was following your posts and was really rooting for you. Do something nice for yourself that will make you (at least a little) happy and get back to it. You'll get great news in July and be done with it once and for all!

[Mrs 300]

Thanks Sandra. The ragin' cajun is one of a kind, but we all have our special talents on the forum. Ha. Thanks for the support. I appreciate it so much.

Tomorrow, we are going to the White Sox game because it's kids day and then I'll be able to get 3 quality hours of study time in. I kind of feel weird studying for FAR again because I JUST took it. I almost feel like I'm cheating. It's very odd.

Good luck with your exam schedule. You seem to be very serious and committed and surely you will be successful! Keep me posted! I'll be following your story as well!

My story may end with me taking a bath with the toaster, but time will tell.

I'm glad you're taking some time to do something other than study, even if its just a day. Pass or fail, we all need a break sometime!

@Mrs300 – try my e-mail address bruce_kricket@bellsouth.net. I've changed the settings on facebook. Hopefully we can connect this way.

@Sandra – You crack me up! I've said the same thing about taking a bath with the toaster. If you are on facebook, please find me! Normally, I'm a very nice person, but from time to time I have to be careful not to say what I think. That's why I say I keep the ragin' cajun in a box. I don't want to offend anyone. I only let her out when I'm asked. I love that you are teaching your dog. That is priceless. And you are 110% correct when you said that we need a break from time to time. Without a break we'd all go crazy.

Good Luck ladies!
