Wow it has been a really long time since i updated. well to update you guys...i've been sick with a stupid sinus and ear infection so i missed a whole week at longfellow and 3 days at central...oddly enough i didn't miss anything EXCEPT tests. with school i am getting a C in civics =\ i just don't kno how to retain the information i'm given. i really study as much as i can but i just don't remember any of it or understand it. In the rest of school i'm getting A's so thats good. i have a 91% in adv. algebra, probably a 70% in Civics, and 100% in spanish and hopefully a 95% in the internship and when i averaged that out it was like an 89% so i should be getting atleast a 3.4 gpa so i am good to go with my grades =)
Tim and i have been doing good, i just wish tim had his own car and a job so we could go out more. he did have his moms car but we only went out a bit and he started to run out of money that he had...the majority went to my valentines present =x and also his moms car had difficulties so it died on him on saturday so that didn't help any.
Saturday i had the CPA test for alverno...it was kinda boring and you had to self assess yourself on all the categories and it was either "poor-adequate-strong" and every single one was strong except for one. on the lsitening it asked if you felt your key points were good or however they worded that and i put adequate since i had trouble finding a good key point from the presentation we had to watch. also the test was at your own pace so you had from 8am (really like 9am since there was about an hour introductoin) to 1pm to take the test and i finished at like 11:45am lol. Being there in the computer lab at alverno really made me want to start college right now. I REALLY want to start taking classes. I love how alverno works. they don't give you grades on ANY of the tests. what the professor does is goes through all the assignments and puts the weak points and strong points of each paper as the assessment and then you can go in and ask them to explain their assessment and then you can assess yourself. I just liked how that worked because it takes the pressure off of tests because it doesn't matter if you did bad because the professor will tell you your weaknesses and help you imporve them and i just like it. I also like how the professor handles class. In the classroom you find big tables instead of individual desks and the professor will teach you whatever and then tell you to actually "perform" what your learning and communicate with your classmates instead of doing everything yourself. so if your having problems you can be able to go to someone who knows how to do something and they will help you and its just like having a hands-on lesson and i just like that. i want to get my books and my schedule and get going on college!!!!!!!!!!
grrr today i had an eye appointment today and my eyes are doing well and my eye doctor, dr. ruttum, said i would get my eyes dialated for my last "fairwell" since that would be my last appointment with him at the clinic in childrens hospital. from now on after that i can go into the eye institute on the froedtert grounds where its a more mature atmosphere and i can actually go in by myself since i'll be 18 so its just out of the kids clinic. today when i was in the waiting room waiting for my eyes to dialate there were all these 6 year olds and babies playing with the toys in the waiting room and i'm soo sick of it because im 17 almost 18 and i can't wait to go to a more adult clinic. finally it has come!!! but other then that my eyes are doing well and i am subconciously controlling my eyes so they don't cross. i told dr. ruttum that i will see double every once in a while and when i told him earlier in the other exam room i saw double and he checked with me and he said my eyes were barely turning in. but so far its not that big of a problem. also my eyes haven't really changed which is good =D
i'm getting frustrated because i've been working out and eating as best i can also i have been trying to not eat after 7pm...which i have done REALLY well and i haven't lost a single pound. its like i'll go from 160 to 158 and the next day it will be back up to 160 or slightly over....ARGGG i'm so aggrivated cuz from how i've modified my eating habbits and how i've been becoming more active by workingout you'd think i'd atleast lose some pounds or atleast see a difference in my body, like more muscle deffinition or just even breathing like when i walk up steps and not getting as tired..but NO hasn't happened ARGGG
well im gonna go to bed...goodnight yall!
