not all exercise is healthy

It looks like we'll be squeaking by February afterall. At least, so far - typically this month inchworms to Spring Break, only exacerbated by the current economy.

It might, you might have to send over transcripts to show them that you don't need college algebra. They will try and make you take some no credit shit just ot suck some money out of you. I went and talked with the Math Dean and told him that I could do college algebra and I didn't need a remedial math tune up and to put me in a higher math class (topics in mathematics--which was far far easier than college algebra) and he did. It's two clicks of the mouse for them to put you in a different class. You just have to convince them you're not an idiot ( ... )

Yeah, there is a high rate of turn around for medical techs, though I mostly see that from X-ray techs, nurses and such, not sure how CT techs fare. My cousin's an X-ray tech and she despises it. But when I hear or read explanations as to why, which typically revolves around being overburdened with menial jobs, I think "so, it's commensurate with what I'm doing, but they're making a lot more money and get consistent days off, vacations, etc..." I'm almost single handedly running a business that's actually three businesses in one, so by comparison this looks like a dream. In the case of burn-out, I could refresh at school and elevate my position into another field, as well.

Thanks for the advice on getting out of math classes! Hopefully I've retained enough numbers and variables to convince them.

If I did break my lease and it did show up on my credit report, do you think this would negatively impact my ability to gain financial aid for school? Right now my credit is flawless.
