Oh how I hate math! I don't remember hating it this much when I was in High School, but I sure do hate it now! Did they make changes to how math is done in the..umm...20?..uh..30?...well, since I left High School?
I took a placement test for college today. I scored rather high in English and Comprehension. So high that I don't have to take the "beginner" classes and will jump right in to college level writing class. Math. Now that is a whole different story! I scored low. Very low. So low that I think if they had a polite way of saying "Go back to Kindergarten" they would have. So now I have to continue to take these extra curricular math classes in hopes of improving my score so that I don't have to PAY for math classes to get me to a beginner college level math! Ugh. So I hate math!
But, I met with the advisor today and have all the classes I want to take for my first semester just sitting in my on-line cart waiting for me to register next week. My friend Cheryl and I are hoping to get into the same classes. We've got them all set up for Tuesday & Thursdays. All day. Will be long days, but then we only have to get up early two days! That's the plan anyway!
So kids, my advice to you is to STUDY those math skills and memorize your multiplication tables. Take notes. Keep the notes. Ask questions. And above all else, don't drink liquor as it will deteriorate your brain cells in the future.
Word!
(On another note: Getting ready for the big snow storm they have promised. I bought some goodies from Trader Joe's, gassed up the car and have a movie to watch. This all pretty much guarantees that we will NOT get snow! You can thank me later!)
