Brag Time

I'm sure the two of you that read my blog are sick of my bragging, but I have lots to brag about.

As you know, I've gone back to school. I tested poorly on the placement exam for math. It was recommended that I take three of the four Developmental Math courses before I could take college level classes.

Basically, that means I could add and subtract, but not much else. I was not thrilled, but I knew that there was no way I could survive in college level math without the basics under my belt. I enrolled.

During my first class, I learned that I could finish all of those remedial classes during the current semester if I worked my tail off. And work my tail off I did. My professor said that she has only known one person in her career to finish all four classes in one semester. I figured I was ahead of the game, I only had to take three.

Well, I'm pleased to say that I completed the first two courses in record time, and I'm almost finished with the third. I have one test left and then I'm ready for the final exam. I expect to be done before exam week.

It's a big deal. I've worked so hard for it. I finished three courses in one semester when my classmates are struggling to finish one. And I'm no longer terrified of math. That's an even bigger deal. Bring on the Algebra, baby!
