Woo!!! I finally successfully finished 1 year of college! My last exam took me a total of 35 mins to do, woo. I was planning on meeting Katlyn for off campus lunch at Amigos too, so i need to take up as much time as possible.
So I went to Walmart and wandered around for about an hour. And then I went to Goodys and got a shirt. And then I got bored, real bored. Theres nothing in Brainerd and i didnt wanna waste gas, so I went and sat in the amigos parking lot for an hour. Not fun.
Oh yeah and then when katlyn got there, all of Boyd Buchanan decided to go eat there too. So everyone was staring at me. Fun stuff. And then I also thought I heard Bronson making a Kerry comment. Thank u again.
hmmm...im boring. I dont have much to say and its not gonna get any better since school is out lol.

Great news!
I am so stoked!!! I retook the ACT yesterday at school and i got a 24!!!!! I feel smart now since it took all i had to get a 21 before. Haha. For those of u who dont know, u have to have a 22 to get into the teacher education program in the state of tennessee. Goll. I got all my scores emailed to me and let me tell u, i thought science was the hardest and i got the highest on that, a 27. Heres my previous scores and new ones.
Old
English 25 Math 16 Reading 25 Sci. Reas. 18 Composite 21
New
English 25 Math 19 Reading 26 Sci. Reas. 27 Composite 24
YAY!!!! Now i can take the class that i revolved my schedule around haha.
Oh yeah so this is my last full/regular week of class. Im so happy about that cause im getting tired of school. I need 4 months off. Haha that sounds so great. 4 months. Ohh yeah and i figured out I have 4 finals and i only have to study for 2 because theater we have to act, no studying, and Western Humanities is an essay question she gives us on the spot. Oh yeah and let me tell u that I looked on blackboard and apparently my teacher had a hamlet quiz in there yesterday!!!! I told her 3 times i wasnt gonna be there so she wouldnt count as many points off. And i think the syllabus says u can make up something if u inform her before the missed class. She better let me make it up. Its only 8 points but i need them badly.

Schedules, schedules, schedules
So I dont have to worry about classes again for a long long time. I am very excited about that. I thought I was bad last semester but I was worse this time which I didnt think was possible. So I found out that in order for freshmen to take 300-400 level courses, you have to go and get a form filled out, signed by your advisor and then signed by the department head. Well im a sophomore next year obviously but i dont have credit for this semester yet cause its not over yet. So technically the computer only thinks I have 16 hours.
So I have changed my schedules about 20 times in order to get what I want, when I want. So finally I got up this morning at 5:45 and got my computer ready to register and all. So at like 6 on the dot I attempted to register. And once again, just like last semester I didnt actually register till about 6:15 cause so many people are trying to get on at once that it gets busy or crashes. I was told it crashed last semester. But anyway I am taking 17 hours but I could only register for 9 of them online. Cause then I got to school at 7:20 and waited outside Records and Registration because they had to put me in my Heco 340 and Heco 350 class. So I got in and then went to find out about taking Educ 209. And for those of u who dont know, in order to take education classes above educ 201 Jan Gould (a high up woman in the education dept.) has to put u in the class. So after much confusion I find out that I cant take it yet cause I dont have my ACT scores in. So I take that next tuesday and then if i get the 22 then i can take the class. Goll. So much drama. I literally slept horrible last night worrying about classes. I kept waking up and tossing. Grr. Its over. Praise Jesus.
So after all that jazz, heres what im taking:
MW
3:25-4:40 - Engl 115 (Western Humanities 2)
5-6:40 - Educ 209 (Special Ed) (Mondays only)
5-7:30 - ENgl 228 (Childrens literature) (Wednesdays only)
TT
9:25-10:40 - Math 210 (Stats)
10:50-12:05 - Heco 340
1:40-2:55 - Heco 350
I forgot what the Heco classes are. Oh well. Oh and the best news is that I dont have classes on fridays, i dont go in till 2 on MW, I have 1 class with Leigh Anne, 3 with Kerra and 3 with Lauren! Yay!
Poor Kerra, some ass got all mad cause apparently she was blocking their car by accident cause she didnt have any where to park and she was allowed to park in the lot she was in. She got a call that if she didnt move her car in 10 mins it would be towed. She gets out there and someone had keyed into her car, "Fuck you". She was in tears. I felt so bad for her. And then she called the Chatt police cause its on city grounds, not UTC and the woman was such a bitch to her about it. Goll. What great people there are in this world.

GGRRR!!!
Grr!!!!!! I HATE SCHEDULING CLASSES! Nothing ever goes my way! I had a complete schedule picked out and now its all changed around cause classes i want are full already. I swear im gonna be taking gen ed senior year cause i cant get into those classes now. How dumb.
And I also love how no one in the education department can tell any prek-3 majors what to take or when to take it. NO ONE KNOWS. I HATE IT. I hear this from one person and this from another person. Too much trouble i say. Its a pain in the buttocks, as Forrest Gump would say.
Ahh and i have to take the ACT a week from tuesday. Im not looking forward to that. Please pray that I can make a 22 and bring up my math and pray that i can get my classes i want at a decent schedule.
Stupid college.
On a lighter note, I won my first item off of Ebay! Im so proud! I still dont get the whole pay pal thing, or trust it for that matter, but i got my first money order/cashier check. Ive been looking at 50's dresses cause i want some so bad. I want the flowy ones to wear when i teach and then i can get a crinoline skirt to go with them when i want them poofy. But anyway, its pink with stripes and i found out after i won that it had polka dots on the collar and sleeve cuffs which im not thrilled about but there hard to see so its all good. It was a killer deal too!! It was only 18.75$ for a vintage dress! haha! My parents dont know though and im hoping i can get the package before my mom comes home one day lol.

Random but oh well.
I called to get info about taking the ACT at school and apparently u can take the kind that doesnt count nationally, thats why u get your score like the next day. But anyway the problem is its only offered Mondays and Tuesdays at 1. Well on Mondays I work from 11-2 and on tuesdays im in class till 1:30. Im screwed because the one girl i have to ask to work for me has her lab the same time i work on mondays in the same room. And labs are for the next 2 weeks. Goll. So of course the class i would have to miss is the one who is a Nazi about attendance and it hurts your grade. Im not happy.
Oh yeah yesterday afternoon I randomly had Willy Wonka singing in my head, the original. When there in the candy room where everything is eatable. Well I had no reason to be singing it cause i havent thought about that movie in a long time. Speak of the devil. It was on that night on 31. Had no idea.
My Western Humanities kinda ruined one of my favorite books. The author of Alice in Wonderland, Lewis Carroll, was a pedophile. Remember the book is about a young girl. Ew.

Countdown to summer...
So Spring Break ended, but my first week back to school is kinda gravy lol. I only have to get up one day and I get to leave early that day.
Spring Break was kind of boring. I enjoyed my 2 days of doing nothing except hanging out with my dad, but Wed-Fri sucked. I had to work 10-3 those days. They werent too bad, but I was at the desk 10-1 on Wed and Fri and they drug by. Omgoodness one day I sat there and stared at the wall for an hour and a half. Not fun. But I did get mega bucks so its all good. Oh yeah I worked today too and one kid in preschool, the older kids, peed on himself everywhere. I got to clean that up, yay.
Is anyone else sick? Ive got a cold, not fun.
5 weeks of school left, 6 with exams but that doesnt count lol. Im counting the days. I think its like 24 for me or something. I have about 7 or 8 Western Humanities classes left too! Yay! I do not like that class. Its just so boring and it drags on forever since its a TT class.
Im finally meeting my Advisor today for the first time lol. I made a list of questions to ask her too. Stupid education department people. They cant tell u jack.

Long days ahead...
So im gonna have some long days ahead. Im not really looking forward to them either. At this point i dont ever remember what i update on and what i dont, so if i repeat myself, just skip it lol.
So i went today to do my 2 hours of volunteering/training at the daycare. Not bad at all. It went by very quickly which i was thankful for. They put me with the infants, which is where many cant walk. Only one could walk and he looked drunk lol. I know my ID badge and lanyard are covered in spit. Im gonna have to like soak it in antibacterial stuff lol. Now that i look at it though, it seems kinda funny cause i was the only white worker in the room. The 3 others were black. haha i must have looked funny. Oh well. But now all the work i do there will be paid so thats good. 30$ here and there is gonna be good.
But i was looking ahead in my planner and i have so much work due in like the next 3 weeks, plus tudoring and work. Goll shoot me in the face. I have like 4 papers due in my classes along with tests and im gonna be tudoring 2 times a week at hunter from 230-330 and those are my long days, so that means i dont get out of class till 130, which means i have to drive home, well i dont even know if i can come home cause i dont think ill have enough time. And then i put down i can work on tuesdays from 8-1030 in the morning before class at 1050, so thats a 8-330 day, which seems like alot now, but in reality its no more than 30 mins extra than ive been doing from K-12. Ive been spoiled by college. My Odyssey paper is waiting...
