Hey guys!
Well, so, I only have two weeks of school left after this one. Yay! But-- tonight I have to take a chemistry exam to turn in at co-op tomorrow, and if that wasn't enough, I also have a speech that I'll be performing in class tomorrow as well. I'm kind of nervous about both, I mean, I think I'm doing well studying the chemistry so far, but I'm still having trouble with the 100 terms I have to know (which is weird for me, usually terms are a breeze) and then I'm just worried about my speech tomorrow because I haven't had as much time to prepare as I'd have liked (over the past three or four days, I've literally been getting up, doing school, studying chemistry, eating dinner, maybe watching one tv show, practicing my speech, and going to bed late.) So, if you guys could pray that God would miraculously help me to understand all the chemistry stuff as I'm studying these last few hours, and calm my nerves so I'll perform splendidly tomorrow, I'd appreciate it VERY much!
School!

School!
Be Thou my Vision, O Lord of my heart;
Naught be all else to me, save that Thou art
Thou my best Thought, by day or by night,
Waking or sleeping, Thy presence my light.
Be Thou my Wisdom, and Thou my true Word;
I ever with Thee and Thou with me, Lord;
Thou my great Father, I Thy true son;
Thou in me dwelling, and I with Thee one.
Be Thou my battle Shield, Sword for the fight;
Be Thou my Dignity, Thou my Delight;
Thou my soul’s Shelter, Thou my high Tower:
Raise Thou me heavenward, O Power of my power.
Riches I heed not, nor man’s empty praise,
Thou mine Inheritance, now and always:
Thou and Thou only, first in my heart,
High King of Heaven, my Treasure Thou art.
High King of Heaven, my victory won,
May I reach Heaven’s joys, O bright Heaven’s Sun!
Heart of my own heart, whatever befall,
Still be my Vision, O Ruler of all.
Naught be all else to me, save that Thou art

I'll pray for you, and I wish you the best. Just make sure to get a good night's sleep tonight, even if you don't feel completely prepared. A couple extra hours of studying will help you far less than the lack of sleep will hurt.

Remember to use anagrams (I think that's the word 
) to memorize lists of terms. Not sure how helpful that is in chemistry, but I thought I'd throw it out there. 
I'll be praying for you!

I'll be praying for ya. I know how tough school can be. But don't worry. You'll make it. Hey, I survived and now I am only two years away from getting a degree. Keep up the hard work. It pays off in the end. But don't over work yourself. And most certainly "don't worry." You'll do wonderfully.

Thanks guys, for all the prayers!
OK, as far as I know, I think I did quite well on the chemistry test. I won't know for sure until I get my grade back this Friday though. And my speech went well too-- except, my teacher's pet peeve concerning my is when my hair gets in my eyes (I used to have short side bangs, and they'd get into my eyes ALL the time, so I'd have to pin them back.) Anyways, I've been growing my hair out some, and it doesn't really get into my eyes anymore, so I didn't bother to pin it back this time. Well, as soon as I got up there, guess what happened. . . yep, somehow, some of my hair got over into my face. I couldn't sweep it aside with my hand, because I knew that'd just draw more attention to it, so inwardly, I was just like, "Aaaah, shoot. . ." So everytime she'd look down to write something on my grade sheet, I'd do the head jerk real fast to get them to the side, XD! They kept getting back in the way though, it was weird and obnoxious. Anyways, other than that, I think it too went well. Once again, thanks for praying! I'll just add though that this week I'll be taking my chem. final, so, if you guys could keep me in your prayers for one more week, I'd really appreciate it! ^_^

Yeah, that's always been a topic in my public speaking classes. Pin up your hair, don't have loose change in your pocket, anchor your feet to the floor but don't lock your knees, never use air quotes (they're so cliche 
), etc. It's almost as if the speech itself doesn't matter!
Anyway, glad things went well. I'll keep praying about your chemistry final. Good luck!

Yay, the chem final is done! I think I did well, but not only that, I knew that I could get like a 70 on a test I took last week and a 70 on this final and still maintain an A average because my grades were good enough up to them. Well, I got a 103 on my test from last week, so I could basically *seriously* mess up this final and still be fine. That's a relief! 
Thanks again for the prayers. 
(Oh, and by the way, I got a perfect score on my speech! Highest grade in the class, except for one girl who got extra-credit beyond a perfect score. She did *really* well, and she talked about chocolate. And my teacher is a woman, who loves chocolate and good speeches. 'Nuff said. XD)
