Yesterday was a weird day. Woke up again to rain at 3 am, and didn't really sleep after that.

Didn't feel sick exactly, but a little off. The bike ride to class was the hardest it's been, but no reason for it.

Started with a knot clinic to work on bowline, two half hitches, and sheet bend.

Then we did a lift bag exercise. Hard! I hadn't used one before.

Then we went in the pool doing another skill training, and did really well, 4.6 out of 5. Then I took my Standards preassessment exam. This test, both preassessment and at the IE, is open book, just looking up rules, ratios, etc. Did really well on that too. It's 40 questions, took 31 minutes, and I got 3 wrong, for a score of 92.5. I had time to do my open water slate preparation for the next day as well.

Grabbed a super vegetarian baleada at a place called Comedor Catracho with some other candidates in my class. Really big, good, and 50 limperas, or about $2-2.50 U.S. to class for a QA on standards, which was basically going through typical exam questions.

Finished around 4, and I biked to the grocery. Bought bread, cheese, peanut butter and apricots.

So tired when I got home that I mostly laid in bed. Got up after a while, made dinner here, and was asleep by 8:30 or so. Woke up a lot though, I'm really nervous about our open water sessions today - I'll have so much less control...
