ONCE...PMP Exam !

I've shared about the exam here.  The exam took place this morning.  I've ramped-up since Sun till the eleventh hour last nite.  Didn't sleep on Sun, Mon and Tue (covered during the day..got permission to MIA to study).  I informed my customer that I'm taking the exam, so try not to disturb me hehehe.

Last nite was very challenging.  Planned to do last revision, reading the summaries, study the past exam by looking at the answers, etc.  But He knows more than we do.  At 9 pm, my wife started shivering.  Didn't respond when I called her.  My heart pumping like crazy.  My kids all started crying.  Nu'man even started promising to be good boy, will listen to what my wife said.."nu'man janji..wake up la ummi..".

Called 999 but they asked me repeatedly "what's your wife's condition ?"  Some point I get irritated already.  What do they expect ? I just need an ambulance !  Then, connected to Hospital Klang.  I cancelled, I wanna send her to SMC.  They assisted by giving me SMC's number.  Called SMC, they channeled it to the Emergency and they gave me a mobile number (&*$%!!!) which not answered.

Get all my kids into the car (and all of them cried like anything).  I carried my wife from bed to the car (I really really need to go back to the gym !).  Drove as fast as I can to my in-laws house. Drop the kids. Prayed hard to God (fuel indicator blinking from home) to allow me to reach SMC, then it's ok to run out of fuel.  Emergency started doing their work, then they said need to do CT Scan, admitted after receiving ING's GL.  By midnight warded and my mom-in-law arrived.

Since it's sharing, husband can't wait.  Told my mom-in-law that I've exam in the morning.  I'll come straight after the exam.  Went back, prayed, packed my kids & wife's stuffs, drop them at my in-laws house...and head to the Lab.  Studied there till 2.30 am where my body can't go anymore.  Took a nap (intended just a nap and wake up for sahur).  But woke-up at 6.15, phone got problem (no network !!!).  Had to turned it off, then on again.

Then, do my last revision, transfer some docs to my new E71. I left at 7 am...arrived at 7.30 am.  My exam suppose to start at 9 am, need to be ther eby 8.30.  But they said, can start early..then finish early.  Took some time to do last revision (on the formulas), then went in at 7.55 am.  Prayed alot..selawat alot...dozed off quite alot as well.  Finished it all in 3 hours and 40 minutes.  I closed my eyes as I click Submit (and prayed like crazy again!).

Instead of result, questionnaire first.  Do it quickly..and again, close my eyes as I submit the survey. "Please God...I wanna see Congratulations...".  Then, "Congratulations ! You have passed the PMP Exam...."  Alhamdulillah..thank God !!!  And I cried in front of the PC.  After all the challenges, my prayers was answered...I really really thanked Him.

Am glad and thankful for the trust that my bos gave to me as she fought and justify to management for me taking the exam.  Thankful to my wife for allowing me to take the time off studying...to all my friends and buddies for the support.  Now, am humbly declared myself as

Project Management Professional !
