Taking a test...and thinking of Wembley

[Convincing John]

Hi, everybody.

Just wanted to let you know I won't be posting for a few days because I'll be busy with some major projects this week...primarily a huge test I have to take for grad school.

It's one of those tests you take in order to be admitted into your major field of study in graduate school. Well, as nervous as I am, I'll have a little confidence builder before I begin:

Remember the episode of Fraggle Rock (the title escapes me) where Wembley is getting ready to run a race with Gobo? Before the final race begins, Wembley covers his eyes, visualizing his success, and thinks to himself "I can do it, I can DO it!"

I have been preparing for this tough test for a long time, and I just want you Muppet fans (and Steve Whitmire) to know that I will be doing the same thing, covering my eyes and visualizing my success, just like Wembley, before my big test.

I know that some people are arranging tape trades with me, but I'm going to have to pause on it for a few days (sorry for any inconvenience) but this test is probably one of the hardest I will ever take, and I want to do my best on it.

So, I will be back in a few days...my test is Tuesday at noon. Thanks, Steve (and Wembley) for your help.

Aw, thanks! Well, that pesky test is done with, thank goodness! I think I did okay on it, but I have to wait a few weeks to know for sure.

Hey, Manda, did you have a chance to check out my third Gilda Constuction Story? It's in a thread entitled "Gilda and the Construction Crew". I remember how much you liked the Bill Cosby one!

Hey, thanks! Yeah, I hope I did good, too. But I took it on the computer and you have to send away for the results. It'll be after Halloween before I hear anything.

Waiting can be painful. Probably the worst wait for me (school-wise), though, was for my college apps. But hey at least I got into my #1 choice and I currently have a 3.8 GPA
