I have an exam today which is why I've been ignoring you and thinking about REALLY IMPORTANT THINGS instead
Hooray! Exams! I get to (completely) fill in little circles! I get to line up my calculator and pencils! Somebody's going to grade me!
---
Oh shit. Somebody's going to grade me. On something I've been doing in a professional capacity for almost a decade. What if - as I suspect - I'm just a giant fraud who knows nothing, and my results come back and everyone finds out and it turns out they knew it all along?
---
I should probably wear a girdle.
---
And blow dry my hair.
---
I know most of this stuff. I use at least seventy percent of it on a weekly basis. Focus on the stuff I know and the rest will sort itself out.
---
WHICH IS WHY I'M GOING TO FAIL AND IT WILL BE IRONIC.
---
Do I have time to buy a new shirt?
---
Speaking of time, the exam time is listed in 24-hour time. I HAVE PREVIOUSLY DEMONSTRATED MY INABILITY TO GET 12-HOUR TIME RIGHT. This seems unfair.
---
Smarten up, chump. My body looks like this, therefore this is what my body should look like, remember? Girdles don't make me smarter.
---
But they make me feel smarter.
---
I wish we could have coffee in the exam, then I could look all confident and trendy holding my really tall coffee cup, and everyone will know how smart and cool I am.
---
Are tall coffee cups even cool anymore? Were they ever?
---
I get to miss the After-School, Before Dinner Hour of Horror, and write an exam today! EVERYTHING'S COMING UP SANDI!
