i have some good news and some bad news.
good news: i (just barely) passed my math class.
bad news: that means i have to take college algebra in summer II.
good news: it is possible that, after this summer, i will be done with math forever, and have gotton my all of my required internships out of the way too.
bad news: i have to start school again wednesday, and it wont be done until three days before i head back to umhb.
i was almost sure i would fail this class. trust me, there were a lot of tears and a lot of frustration. a lot of hours spent doing math homework and getting none of the answers right. i've never worked so hard for a class, and i was almost disappointed that i passed because my brain is so exhausted that i just want to give up for this summer. but, i will keep going, because chances are i wont pass college algebra the first time, and that gives me two more chances next summer, too.
i am seriously so mathmatically challenged. i had to take four different developmental (remedial) classes, starting waaaay at the bottom (we're talking the very basics of math, here). i did three of them last summer, then this last class this summer. now i am finally taking the big one.. the only one that counts. college algebra.
the funny thing is that all of these developmental classes, plus college algebra, plus all of my books will be less $$$ than one class at UMHB.
so thats pretty much been my summer. math, and trying to squeeze in work for my internships. this week i am helping with VBS and putting out a daily newsletter for the parents each day. i'm having a good time so far. i get to take pictures and make pretty layouts.. so thats right up my alley.
everyone, pray for me. pray i can handle this class.
