BLOOD, SWEAT and TEARS

I enrolled in night classes but I wasn’t ready. I was at this for 2 semesters and then out of the blue, Dorothy (Mom) suggested I move to Muskegon to live with my brother and attend Muskegon Community College. I was really interested in an education. I know I needed it and I thought this might work. I liked the idea of concentrating on one project, college, less confusing.

I know I’m only 21 and I have time so I’ll take college a little slower, if my manic state can handle it. College moved so very fast but at times it didn’t move quickly enough. Memorization is needed and it has never really been tested. School is tough; I’m having hard time remembering class days and times not to mention assignments. I didn’t do well in my classes, pulled cs, ds and fs; I don’t enjoy this very much. Soon they won’t be able to laugh at me anymore, I’ll get smarter.

I did this for a couple of semesters. School was overly demanding for me. There was the quadratic formula and formulas and formulas in algebra and what they led to. God! And let’s not forget the Latin terminology of Business Law and I haven’t even remembered English yet.

Then there was accounting: Damn a debit is a dept, I owe and a credit is credit, I benefit. Accounting has it all wrong; my Professor just wouldn’t believe me. ‘WHAT! Minus 3 points, what cha mean Professor?’

I finished 2 semesters of college education there. Now it’s been a while, I think more than a year since my accident and I think it was Dad who asks me if I wanted to come home and run a Night Club?’ I returned to Saginaw.
