Today's personal accomplishment

Drumroll please........
I got an 80 on my Trig quiz! Yay me! Granted, I had to take it three times to accomplish this feat, but I did it! Normally I get much higher on quizzes, but this chapter was a doozie. And I did my homework, and I'm caught up with all of my school work, and I am officially the most awesome person that ever walked the face of the Earth! (Can you picture me in a supersuit with a cape around me, with my hands on my hips and my chest thrust out?? Cuz I'm definitely doing it.) Its been mad crazy this past week for school. I don't mind taking classes online, but starting Trigonometry while in the middle of the rest of my classes!? And online, of all places?! Whew!

Well that's my supercool reason for bragging today, Darren is making dinner, and it smells really good, and my mouth is watering, and my tummy is grumbling, and yea, I have to go.

It will all be worth it in the end...

School is literally sucking the life out of me right now.
And it's slow...
And it's painful...
And it's not really as bad as I make it sound.

I've just never taken online classes before, so I am having to teach myself how to get the motivation to budget my time wisely to stay on schedule. But I did homework for four hours yesterday, so I am finally back on schedule with my American History and Politics class. Now I just need to get up to date with Trig. Easier said than done, considering that I've always been a hands on learner when it comes to math, and I do much better when I'm in a classroom. But I love math, and I'm determined to get this stupid A.A. so I can finally get to work on my Bachelors.

When that day comes........I will be a totally new person. Well, sort of. Because right after I get my Bachelors, I'm starting on my Masters. Whew! I'm a career student! It doesn't matter though, I will finally be able to get a job with an engineering firm. It's just taking forever. Now granted, I am off schedule because I decided to enlist in the military, and when that didn't work out, I was six months behind schedule. And it also doesn't help that I had no idea what I wanted to do when I went into college, so I didn't take the necessary math and physics classes that I would have if I started college with a decision. So, after December, when I become human again when I graduate, all I need is Calc 1,2,and 3, and Physics 1,2,and 3. Darnit. But that's good, because I'll have my A.A., and be one step closer to University of California!

It's worth it when you get the end result.... isn't it?
