Goddammit, Sec +!

This isn't something you'd usually see from me, but I need to vent somehow XD
For those of you who don't know, or are curious about what's going on, I'm in the US Air Force. Woo, awesome and stuff.
Anyways, life has been rather lax after boot camp. Got to chill out while studying for my job and all that jazz. That being said, I'm coming across a big challenge in literally two days. Being here at one of the strictest tech schools isn't the problem. Even the ridiculous amount of paperwork needed to out-process isn't all that bad.
What's stressing me and my fellow airmen out is this ludicrous test known as Sec+, an exam recommended for those who've studied it for at least two years. How much time do we get? A week and a half before tackling this behemoth. If that wasn't bad enough, failure to pass the first time results in cancellation of plans to go home, or even re-classing or discharged airmen!
Being the person I am, I learned well enough without studying, nor wasn't my thing. So I'm sure some of you can imagine what's it's been like for me to adapt to this in so jarring a fashion. On top of that, we've to learn and retain the massive amounts of information presented to us on a daily basis. I'm burned out by the time I get home, and it's pretty much mandated to study asap. Honestly, I'm ready to be rid of this XD
Still, the stress is there, and I'd very much like to go home, even if it's a brief visit. Wish me luck, and thanks for putting up with the random griping XD In any event, gonna study up for a bit before stressing out a little before bed. Ciao for now
