Studying HARD...Test Tomorrow!

I take my PRAXIS Test tomorrow morning at 7:30am for two hours! I am tested on Math, Reading, Social Studies, and Science. Pretty much everything you learned from K-6th Grade! I have been studying every day for the last month. Today I am trying to learn/remember the last couple of things I 'think' I should know. My HEAD is hurting like CRAZY!!! I just really don't want to have to take this test again nor do we have the money for me to take it again!! Just wish me luck!! I should get my results back in a month or so. If I pass you will hear from me.. if not..... then I will be sad and will take it again. :0( But honestly, I really think I have done my part in studying, still getting my homework done, taking care/spending time with Daisy, and still spending time with the family. So, I guess I just leave the rest to the Lord and if I pass then I pass. SO WISH ME LUCK!!
