My test is Saturday. I will really need a hand from up above somewhere if I am going to pass. I have never done this before--just completely neglected studying. I pick up a book and end up staring off into space, ruminating about what went wrong. Thinking about all his critical judgement of me. Why did he even bother to tell me he was proud of me? When I over heard him on the phone he couldn't have been nastier--saying he just doesn't give much credence to anything I've been doing (because I haven't done anything with it yet).
But I will go there Saturday from 8 to 5pm anyway. Any passing thoughts would be greatly appreciated.

KL-
I will send you 'passing' thoughts. And a prayer. That is, if I don't forget by the time Saturday rolls around; it's a good thing there are lots of young whippersnappers with intact memories here who will also be sending you lots of warm thoughts of self-confidence and quick memory access during your test. I bet there are lots of lurkers who'll be praying, too.We're everywhere!
good good good luck-
Shar

Good Luck, Kara Lynne!
Remember to bring your sharpened #2 pencils.
If you get marked down for wrong answers, don't answer unless you can rule out half of the choices.
Relax, and don't worry too much. You can always take it again.

All your good thoughts helped me get through the day. I find out in a month how I did. It was harder than I thought it would be, but we'll see. It was especially hard because as we all know, I have been much too busy having a nervous breakdown to study.
Unfortunately my father took me instead of the ex who was going to. I'm not sure, maybe they're interchangeable. I told him he needed a shot of freon in his air conditioner and that was enough for him to be punishing for the entire ride home. I know they all think I'm an incredibly difficult human being to get along with, but this telling someone they need freon really put them over the edge.
Neither he nor my mother asked how I was, said gee I'm sorry you might be having a rough time right now. The freon episode had me running to my car before the tears came-- my mother looking bewildered and making attempts as I'm running away (the only time she ever attempts anything--when she's sure I'm leaving) to look like she would have been nice to me if only I hadn't run off and been so difficult.
Egads. Trying to separate. Trying to something. Trying not to call the ex in a pathetic, needy moment.
Thanks again, really.

Thanks lil jimi! How cool. Are there more things I can chant--to heal a broken heart and bring true love into my life?
You are very kind to send me such blessings. I am truly grateful.

perhaps ...Manjushri is the Bodhisattva of Infinite Wisdom ...
.... Om Ah Rha Pa Tsa Na Dhi

.. .... .. i thought it seemed applicable to your educational pursuitsAvalokitesvara (known as Kwannon in Japan and Kuan Yin in China) is the Bodhisattva of Infinite Compassion ... ....
... ... Om Mani Padme Hum ... ...
.... ... is the vibe / mantra of Avalokitesvara's beneficence and invokes his blessings ... ...Manjushri's mantra is Tibetan and Avalokitesvara's is Sankrit. These are the only Bodhisattva's mantras i know .... i use them for everything ... ... of the Bodhisattvas beyond counting and the thousand's of known Bodhisattvas these two are among the most widely know and they are the only ones for whom i know their mantras ... ...
... (except for Amitabha Buddha, who may be the most popular: Ah Mi Ta Bha is his mantra) ... ...
i would suggest Avalokitesvara for issues of the heart, although i invoke Manjushri for almost everything
