Freaking Out

I'm freaking out.

Again.

I just looked at yet another practice test for the national massage therapy certification exam.

The questions weren't even familiar.

They were asking what kind of stretching you would do if your client had a certain condition.

Stretching?

I've never learned about stretching.

I have no notes on stretching!

The three exam study guides I bought don't even mention stretching!

Only rubbing!

I'm not trying to be a bloody physical therapist!

Just a massage therapist!

It can't be that hard, right?

I'm so discouraged I had to put away my piles and piles of flashcards that I carry around in a hobo-esque grocery sack.

I know, defiant, right?

I'm going to need a personal tutor.

Email me with questions--I'll help you any way I can. I might even be able to come up with a couple of good reference books for you. :) Hang in there.
