Phew! Glad That’s Done With

Well, I finally took the GRE this morning.  After a couple months of off and on studying of testing, I decided to buckle down and just take the test.  Well, I didn’t decide that so much as the deadline for application forced my hand.  Anyway I spent the last two weeks with my nose in the books cramming for the test.  Practice test after practice test.  My brain started to mush by the end.

Anyway, I did awesome on the test, definitely better than I “needed” to do, although I really wouldn’t be happy with anything less than a perfect score!

As a reward, I finally went flying again this afternoon.  I went up with Lisa’s instructor (well, I guess my instructor now) to start to get aquatinted with a retractable gear 182.  The FAA requires specific training to fly a plane with landing gear (among other things) and the flight club requires 10 hours of training in a specific type.   It was great to get up in the air.

So a huge weight off my shoulders from the test, and a good day flying means I am in a much needed state of relaxation tonight!
