Cleared direct Gateway.

The past week has been spent getting ready for my checkride which is scheduled for tomorrow.  I sat in with the August 6th ground school class to review.  My instructor and I have spent a ton of one on one time going over the PTS and a Jepp textbook making sure I understand everything. 

We spent a few hours in the air the other day running through my maneuvers.  I was surprised but having not done them for a while they were pretty clean.  I flew with another instructor yesterday to see if he found anything wrong or could offer any pointers, and he basically agreeded I was good to go. 

I have been stressing the checkride big time.  Last night I figured I would take a quick nap then head over to Starbucks to study for a bit.  At 6:10pm I put my head on my pillow and the next time I saw the clock it was exactly 3:00am.  I eventually woke up at  6:30 am feeling completely refreshed.  But more so, I felt totally relaxed.  I think that great night of rest did more for me than studying.  I had such a clear head today.  Hopefully it will carry me into tomorrow.

 Wish me luck…
