Which brought me to the beautiful state of Guam - which is where I took my exam.
I'm posting this blog so future PTs - who would want to take an exam there - would have an overview of what to expect (and visit!) when they plan to take the dreaded NPTE exam.

| Outside the Guam International Airport |
 |
Don't forget to bring this home!!!
You can buy it at ABC stores for $7-8. But they're cheaper at K-Mart ($5)
|
 |
| Get some "before-exam anxiety stress" out your system by walking at the Ypao Beach |
 |
Never skip visiting this legendary spot! - Two Lovers Point.
Legend tells that an ancient couple jumped off this cliff with their hairs braided!
|
 |
| The whole area is decorated by these colorful hearts immortalizing the words written by all the lovers who visited the area |
 |
| Also, the sunset view will leave you gasping for words. |
 |
| With my Avant co-examinees. :) |

| Panoramic view of the church |
If you're taking the exam at the Bank of Hawaii building, this church is located a few blocks away; so you can drop by before/after your exam if you wish. When we visited here, there was a lady asking for "donations" before you enter the church, I can't remember the exact price though.
 |
We also tried visiting some of Guam's historical spots.
This spot is actually behind the church! So it was very easy to get here. :)
|
More pictures!! :)
Still from the Bank of Hawaii, if you want to visit Chamorro Village - just cross the street!!
However, locals say that it is best to visit Chamorro Village during Wednesdays from 6PM to maximize the experience. :)
 |
The BBQ is really tempting!! And yeah, these amazing cooks are Filipinos also!
|
 |
| This is what I'm talking about going here at nighttime! :) |
 |
I love smoothies and this one is definitely one of the best-est I've had!!!
Please do try it - Coconut Mango Smoothie. :) Very refreshing. :)
|
 |
| More shops to buy pasalubongs. :) |
 |
To finish the day, we went to The Beach to drink cocktails literally by the beach! :))
You have to come here a little early though (7pm-ish) if you want to witness their live performances.
When we arrived, the band playing just finished their set and it's just around 9PM!
|
This is just a quick guide about the places you must go to when you visit Guam.
It had been easy for us to roam around because one of us rented a car. But if you don't have access to private transportation, bus stops are available at the different malls. Sooo, it's also easy to mall-hop! :)) And there are a lot of outlet stores so don't forget to check them out. ;)
But at the end of the day, it's all about choosing the best way to destress yourself so you'll have more energy to face the exam and pass it! :) Goodluck, future RPT! ;)
