    So, it's late sunday night and I'm finishing up some homework for my classes tomorrow. I have math and accounting on mondays. In math we are graphing with equiations. It's been a while since I've done any of this that it kind of fun learning it all over again. I enjoy math and science, but unforunatly I don't get to take any science due to my major. On the other hand, Accounting is fun and new. I;m so glad I have made the choice to go back to school and am doing something to better myself, and my family. I love numbers and am really good with money number especially. So it was only natural to go back to school for an accounting degree and business administration. I truely believe that it's never to late to learn something new. In accounting we are learning how to do jounal entries and balance sheets. There is a whole list of things that are new to me. Every item has a place whether it's an asset or a liablity, or even stockholders equity. Also it's corperate acccounting so it for businesses not personal accounting. It's alot of paperwork but, it is worth it. The room that my accounting is in is rather dark. There is only three small windows and a very large bl;ackboard, with rows of tables and chair. One thing I don't get is that I don't get any internet sevice in that class, but I do anywhere else. Then there is also the problem that I get no cell sevice in the computer lab, but there is Internet. Go figure.

    1. I am still baffeled on the the thought of no internet in Galvin and no phone service in the Computer lab. In math I am doin ok, wish we had more time per subject. Oh well, at least I am doin ok, we are on irrational numbers. It is really wierd and kinda crazy, but I like it. I do not really have anywhere else to comment so zI am commenting on my own. Accounting still is a dark class, but I am getting through it okay. Not sure what my final grade will be but I am sure it will not be too bad. I am hopeing to ge tenough comments and such in here to get a passing grade. I wonder if anyone is really doing this assignment considering I never see new posts, makes it really hard to comment.

    I just love weeks like this, not really. I'm full of stress and trying my best to get things done. I have to prepare for a math exam this week. I think I know the matarial well, but we will see if I can remember it all by the time I do it. I have been trying to make time for studing for that subject. I have even gotten some tutoring just to be sure. i have go to keep that grade point average up. (smile) Also I have a quiz in accounting and that always stresses me out, because I feel it is my weekest subject right now. Although I hhave lined up a tutor that fits into my schedual, so I do not take away any more time than I have to from my family. I feel like I have a foundation in accounting, but it is made of sand. I need concret, I crave concret. I want everything to be perfect even though I know it is not. In my other class Management I really need rto do some research on my topic for my five page paper, but it seems I have a hard time finding the time. It is pretty high on my list and I have a test tuesday in that class. More Stress. I love it though, I really love to learn. I feel knowledge is power. I am usually not one to go with the grain, but if you have the right knowledge you do not really have to. I almost wish I could take classes for ever, but going to school does not make money, it takes money. I'm acually doing better in my classes than I had antisipated. Kind of make you have a sense of pride in yourself, like you can shed your skin and become a new person. Bigger and better. I've always been a math and science type of person, so number cam naturally. Now all i need to do is remember all the formulas, we will see.

    So, once again I had a major migraine, although I got it under control thank to my husband. It severly messes with my classes, and class work. I was unable to absorb any of my math or accounting for that day, and to top it off I need to prepare for an accounting test next week. Great, I already feel like I'm struggling in this class , plus her teaching style is not all that easy to pick up on. On a high note, at least we get a four by six card to have any notes we want on it. I set the computer to a small font and four in wide so that way I can get as much information on it as possible. In my math i'm playing catch up, because I could not understand the material yesterday. I feel like I'm further and further behind, I need to do something about it. The problem is the balance of school and home life, it's not like my sons are able to help me. I need to find something. I think I'll make out ok, but it really bothers me to not be on top of everything. Especially accounting, it's numbers, I love numbers. Oh well, maybe next semester it will be better and I'll find a teacher I can better understand. For now I guess the plan is to keep at it. Can't win if you never try. Right?

    So, in my accounting class I am stil having the same issue as before. It is still very hard to understand especially when you can not take notes from her lecture. I know I know it, but it sure doesn't feel like it. I'm doing the best I can and I am going to a tutor just to make sure I can understand it better. More than half my class is not there anymore, lately there has only been four of us sitting in class. I am not sure if they all dropped it or if they just do not choose to come. One person I know switched majors. I guess if I would have know I can drop it without costing me money I probably would have, but it was way to late for that. Amazingly I am doing pretty well in that class.I hope I can keep it up and pull at least a little better grade. My goal is to have a 3.45 GPA or better my whole college career. I know it will look better when I get out of college. I did sign up for my classes already and I have Accounting 102 next, hopefully it will be a better class. The one thing I do like is that with a smaller class size you have time to ask more questions and get more detailed answers. All I can do is try and hope I do well.

    So I'm waiting on doing my math exam number three and I am really nervous. I have been working hard on studying and I feel I still do not have a grasp on it. I will sit and try my hardest to get the best grade possible even though I am unsure. Last night all I did was math and more math. I did however get to sleep early and that was nice. On my other classes I am very excited about our proposal essay. It's something I've had this idea for awhile now. I have already got a few websites, but can't wait to see how these other websites work in class Tuesday. In my other class management, I have an essay due about Adolf Hitler and a presentation. I am accually kind of excited about that too. My Accounting class is going ok. I have got to do some homework and write my note card, but I'm sure it will turn out ok. So I am feeling alright about all my classes right now. Wish everyone the best with theirs.

    So I'm working on this huge project for my management class. It is a five page essay, that is not to bad, And a presentation, with pictures, video, and of course public speaking. I hope it goes well. I am working on the essay this weekend, hopefully it will be done by then so all I have to do is turn it in. I think this will be fun to do. I just keep getting distracted by the kids. They can make it really hard to type out a single thought. I will get it done even if I have to wait until they go to bed. Speaking of it is about dinner time and I need to hurry this along to get that done.Multi-tasking if you can not do it wait to have kids. I can not seem to focus on one thing anymore, I have to be multi-tasking to get anything done. It's just how it goes when you get old move out have a family and suck. All apart of life. Now what to make for dinner, I am thinking simple chicken nuggets and fire or pizza. I will ask the boys to see what they want. I am thinking big steak fries with cheese and bacon with a little sour cream. Mmmm......Sounds so good. Well I am off here for now.

    So this weekend I have been working on my proposal and then I had to get my notes ready for an Accounting test I have on Monday. Got to love the weekend when you don't have to do anything but homework. I've got to get a good grade on this test, because I am doing well and want to keep it up. I have been checking angel for my grades of my last quiz and assignment and it has not been posted yet. I am so antsy when it comes to waiting for grades. I want to know I do well as soon as I turn it in. I guess I need to learn some patience. Especially for this class, accounting is not really that difficult just tedious work. Have to keep track of everything. But I am a bit OCD so I like this type of thing. I have my presentation on Tuesday for my management class, and I am really excited. I made handouts and everything. It is about management style, not really the person you picked, but I am doing a fun fact handout. And I will talk about his style, plus I have two videos. Well back to more homework.

    Well back to school monday, it has been a long weekend with Thanksgiving and everything. I got most of the stuff I wanted on Black Friday, wow was that crazy. Math is waiting for me. I still have so much homework to do. But, math is my top priority to get going on. I aalso need to work on my proposal paper. I have Accounting on monday, but wednesday only myself and one other student were in class. Everyone else bailed. So we did our quiz in class. It was great. Plus we had more time to ask our questions and get answers. I can't believe this semester is almost over. Then a break, and then spring semester. I am pleased with myself with the way this semester has gone, and my grades.
