The Day Of Truth

As everyone who has read the last few posts that I have made about my schooling, this should be the final post for that particular topic. As I took my practice tests and did really well caused me to move forward a week later to move and take the actual GED test. I took the first part of the test April 24th, which consisted of two tests, Reading and Writing. The writing part contained two parts just for that one test, first you have the multiple choice which is 50 questions and then the essay part which was incredibly easy. Day 2 on April 26th, which consisted of three test, Math, Science, and Social Studies. I did complete all of the test within the time limit that they give to finish each one, I also had time to spare in between the tests.
  • During the time of taking the tests, I felt nervous even though I knew exactly what I was doing and all, but it was the fact that it was the last time that I would want to take that test in my lifetime. So basically what I'm saying is that while the test was going, I had this fear in the back of my mind that I wouldn't pass, only because it was the actually day I've been waiting for.
  • After the hard part was done with all the tests, I have been trying to keep in touch with the school making sure that they have all of my correct information to get in touch with me when the results came in. As I kept calling and showing up, I still had not heard anything about my results, I was getting worried as the days passed. I called on last time on Tuesday May 8, 2007 to the school hoping for an answer whether I passed or not, like I said I felt confident but no too confident. When I called, I asked the lady if any of the results came in and she replied that they did check the night before but there was nothing showing, and I would get a call back by 10:30 A.M. that same morning. I pretty much waited until about 11 A.M. and just gave up, and then suddenly I receive a phone call from the school about 5:30 P.M. that same day, and what do you know, it's the school stating that I did pass my tests.
  • When I received the phone call, it kind of went like this; "Hello, may I speak to Vincent please?" "Yes, this is him" "is this the Vincent that sold us raffle tickets?" "this is him" "is this the Vincent that has Dago tattooed on his knuckles?" "this is 100% him" "is this the Vincent that got his GED?" Are you seriously calling me to tell me I got my GED or did you call to mess with me?" But it all worked out and I did receive it, she had read me all of my scores and I was amazed at what I had accomplished in one month. She also had told me I would receive the actual certificate in the mail one to two weeks after the day week talked. I woke up this morning April 11, 2007 to an envelope on my chest while I was lying in my bed, it read the school's name on the top left corner of the envelope. I opened it up and it was a dream come true, the GED certificate that I have been waiting for that I have put all of my effort into for the past month. Now I have this big weight off of my shoulders after just getting the phone call, now I see that this opens every door for me in the future. Congratulations to me and thanks for all of the support that I have received from everyone who has put forth the effort to comment on all of my progress along the way.
Today April 11th, after I had woke up and got all excited over opening that wonderful gift that was lying on my chest this morning, I got dressed and raced over to the school to present my certificate and to show some gratification towards those teachers that really helped me make a difference in helping me relearn the things I needed to catch back up on. Thanks to all those five minute teaching sessions that were the best sources of learning for me one section at a time. Now I will move forward in life and I will be keeping up in here to inform what else is going on in my life as time passes.

Congratulations Vinny, we are all happy for you and proud of you.
Keep up the good work and think of this as a springboard to your future.

Congratulations to everyone in Bryan.
You are special and I love you for all the right reasons.

Here in the steamy, swamp we count mosquito bites and clean fungus from between our toes. However, it is always a possibility we will gain enough sense to leave before we mold over.

The days are getting longer and our planet is tilting us into the sun like roasting marshmallows. Sweat not, you Anarcticans, your continent just lost enough ice to chill every keg of beer at every frat house in the U.S.A. Woe is us, guardians of the planet, it has only been here 5 billion years. What is our tenure? Have we become so arrogant that we think we are able to rent asunder what God has wrought? Our doom isn't CO2, is it? Isn't it our own simple-minded greed and disobedience? We are God's children and he put us in charge of this orb, why don't we act accordingly?

Peace out, and remember to honor thy Father and thy Mother.

You all are just too much, love you.
