Today I went to take my civil service exam. I’ve been praying that I get one of the highest scores on the exam and I was so nervous when I went because I had no idea what was going to be on the test. It’s really weird to take a test that you don’t prepare for. As I waited in the room filled with tables with people sitting at almost every table. I estimated that it was about 20 people there taking the same exam I started to wonder if there was a position for all of us. I thought to myself that these were people I had to compete with for this job and I knew I needed to get a really high score to be one of the lucky people picked for the job.

The supervisor over the man that gave the test came in to answer questions and it was to my understanding that taking the exam and getting a high score didn’t guarantee employment. The civil service exam announcement didn’t really mean that the positions were actually available so it really isn’t a guarantee that I will even get a job. Even after all I’ve gone through just to take the test! That broke my spirits because I felt like I was probably wasting my time, but it’s still a chance so I decided to do the best I could possibly do on the test.

As we began to take the test I found that the test was one of the easiest tests I’ve ever taken. The first 30 questions or so were basically reading comprehension. There were a few questions about proper use of vocabulary and on driving. I’m pretty sure I got almost all the questions right. I’m confident that my score will be in the 90′s if not 100%.

After the test I was in a pretty good mood so I went to Tower city and did some very light shopping because I don’t have a lot of clothes right now. I purchased a pink hoodie, 2 bra tanks, and a black knit shirt off the clearance rack at the Rave. I then went into Rainbows and purchased 2 green tops and a beautiful green scarf. I decided that was enough so on my way to the rapid I grabbed a Cinnabon to eat and go on the train.

I really hope that the city is hiring and this wasn’t all for nothing. I tired of living like this. The money that I have now isn’t going to last forever.
