canceled LEED test

I canceled my LEED AP test yesterday. I figured it was better to pay $30 and cancel than to pay $300 and fail which is what I was going to do if I didn't study more. I have not had time to study properly (I had 20 pages of notes but that was the tip of a very big iceberg) and did not foresee a lot of study time in the future so I bailed. I feel sort of bad about it but the timing was just wrong. Oh well.

I did it...well a little bit of it anyway

I finally studied today. I had to leave the house to do it. I retreated back to my old study haunt, Panera's on the strip. I studied for 2 hours before becoming freaked out by what the test was going to cover and deciding that I really needed to talk to one particular coworker that recently took the test. I am hoping he can point me in the right path of what to study so I don't spend time on rote memorization of the wrong areas which is what it looks like it mostly is made up of. Good googly moogly...if that is what it is, I am doomed. It is a whole bunch of tables of information, ick.

It was enough to kill the momentum and I downed two tall cups of coffee in the process. Don't worry, since it was after 4pm, I only had decaf. :)

Being accountable

I have procrastinated in starting to study for the LEED AP exam which I am registered to take at the end of June. There is a pile of study material approximately 9" thick on a shelf calling to me. Tomorrow I start studying. I think I will try to study at my old haunt, Panera on the strip. It is where I studied for all 9 parts of the A.R.E. and I passed all those on the first try...maybe it is a thing? I also gained 15 pounds during that period of time...oops. This time it will be coffee and nothing else, well maybe a salad since I need to lose a few more pounds to get into some of the clothes I picked up last weekend from a generous coworker. I digress, tomorrow...studying at some point... like after church, and the gym, and whatever else I can come up with. :)
