Wow. My salesperson real estate test is one week from today and my brain is officially off duty. This has been nearly three weeks of 5 am mornings, and 11-11:30 pm nights. People, I require nine hours of sleep per night, so I have been quite zombie like much of the time, and zombie-ism doesn’t lend itself to good learning.
It has been fun though. I have really enjoyed meeting new people-fellow wannabe realtors, several of whom were licensed prior to the Great Recession. I was happy to see a good mix of ages in my class. There are a few young people, one of which turned 21 on one of our class nights! Many of my fellow students are middle age people and there are even a few oldies like myself.
I do love to learn however, so pouring through the 156+ page workbook, the Missouri Salesperson Questions book and the 500 question online sample test have been fun. . .and challenging. That’s why I’m hanging out here on a Saturday night. Because I’ve been studying all day and my brain is mush.
Tomorrow is a new (studying) day. I keep reminding myself what I ask the high school students I work with, “What is more fun than taking World History (or the Missouri real estate salesperson test) the first time? Taking it (and paying for it) the second time!” I don’t know if I will pass next Saturday, but I’m sure going to try!
Well, break’s over! Back to the books. The night is young.
