Hey guys, welcome back to According to. I'm Megan.

And I'm Sierra. For this week's episode, we are going to go through our foolproof method of how to get the trip out of the group chat and into real life.

Yes. Our credentials, we've gone on one major girl's trip,

but it went smooth. It went flawlessly. And we're planning on doing it again this year. So we're in the

process of doing the planning and kind of the breakdown and stuff again. And I feel like

oftentimes, like it's a, it's a widespread joke that, you know, the trip doesn't make it out of the group chat because it's always easy to, you know, pitch the idea and say, like, let's do it. And everyone's like, yeah, like, in theory, we would love to. And then, like, the idea of planning it, like, it just falls to the wayside. No one really takes responsibility. And so, like, you know, it doesn't happen. it never makes it out so here are going we're

going to just talk through our steps methods procedures and tips for making it actually happen

before we get into that part of the episode we always like to start with our updates book updates

weekly spotlights what have you Megan It's been a while since we last

recorded, so my weekly spotlight is going to be a whole recapping rundown of how my Costa Rica trip.

It was great. I can do a little bit of a recap, but I'll let you kind of maybe do your weekly spotlight

first and then what is my weekly spotlight because it has been

a hot minute since we record and i don't really even remember what life i've lived um

what have i done nothing apparently nothing evidently um i'll probably like forget something major, but I am taking my GCS next week. Hopefully that will be a spotlight. Like if we record on my day next week. So you find out? I think it's like a month before I find out. Really? Because they have to, like it scales it. You know, kind of like the NPTE where it's like they, then she didn't take a month but, but like they, I think wait forever to take it, see how everyone did, and then they like adjust scores based off of that. So I have seen a month. Sierra could potentially have three more letters to put behind her name. Yeah. The next episode we record, if we record on Monday, it will be at like the day that I take it. like come home disheveled and stressed I don't know

we can recap your test taking experience so but anyway obviously it's not my spotlight that hasn't

happened yet and hopefully that we'll see if that's my spotlight next week but I am on like the home

stretch of studying for it and I feel like with all like the many practice exam I've taken I'm in a good

spot so I'm feeling like at the very least like I feel like I'm doing and I've done what I can't do

you know you're getting to the point like before we took the NPT I feel like you got to a point

where it's like I know like how much more can I do and like whatever I don sorry, I just don't know. And, like, I've done enough reps of everything that I feel like pretty confident. I've gone through, like, you know, different, like, there's just some numbers that I feel like I need to like know. I feel like I'm getting those solidified to like make me feel more confident and like not second guess myself. And the exam, when you're like, is this number right or is this number right?

And like, what's this scale for this number?

So I feel like I'm straightening things out and I'm feeling good.
