thinking ahead

I have to schedule my classes for the fall semester, and I have no idea what I'm going to take.. I know I have to take American Government, and probably a math class.. But, I think that might be all I can afford to take :( My boyfriend said I should take out a student loan so that I can take more classes.. He kind of has a point.. But, I'm trying to put off student loans for as long as possible.. Because, I do know that eventually I will have to take out a loan.. I'm starting to think about my future a little more too though, I'm deciding on a major :) it's between a school counselor and cosmetology.

doing better

So, obviously, I don't post as many blogs as I should... But, I will be getting better at this. Sometimes, I honestly, have no motivation to get on the computer and type out what I'm thinking.. I know I have to, but after working all night, the last thing I want to do is get on the computer and type out a blog. But, I'm going to start pushing myself to do better. Especially in this class. My math class is done for the semester, and I have more time to focus solely on my English class.

ranked 1st

This morning when I went to my math class, my teacher passed back the last test that I took in the class. I generally do alright in this class, I pass all the quizzes and the tests, I take notes, I'm there everyday, and blah blah blah. You get the picture. But, today my teacher gave me a grade sheet along with my test. I got a 48/50 on my test. And on the grade sheet, were all A's! All A's! And, that in itself is a huge success for me because I'm terrible at math. In high school, I failed just about every math class I was put in and I'd have to retake them. I retook about 3 math classes, and went to summer school my freshman because I failed Alegbra 1. But today, I was just so proud of myself. Me, all A's in math, that just doesn't happen. And, then to top it all off, my teacher wrote on the top my paper "Ranked 1st in the class :)" WHAT?!?! NO WAY. me? first in the class? a math class? it just doesn't happen. But, regardless, I'm proud of myself, and even more determined to do better in my other classes. I have more faith in myself to do better :) because I know that I can do it.
