Walking Pneumonia's First Day of Class

Yesterday was the start of term for me, I should be excited but I am not. See  I just didn't start class yesterday but my walking pneumonia started, too and it sucked!!!!  I have to say that  the prescription the walk-in doctor wrote me is helping a lot, I don't feel like I am going to die. I am  hoping  to be better by Wednesday.   

That was a waste of $300.

 Math camp was a  failure,  an Epic $300.00 failure. The only good thing about going to math camp is that  I get to use it as a tax write off.  Have  to look for the positives when you blow $300 of your husband's hard earned money (sorry Hun).

Now knowing that I suck at any more then basic math, I need to change my major and minor.  It is not really a change, it is more of a slight adjustment. From a  Public Administration degree with a minor in Economics to a Political Science  degree with a minor in Economic both (both program uses many of the same course with one exception the economics part doesn't require math). Public Administration and Political science degrees often can do get you the same jobs.   I still plan on taking all the same political science course as before, and all the courses I am taking this term and next will work for either degree.

Drowning in Numbers & Symbols

Today was my first day of Math Camp and I have to say that I feel like it should be my last day.   It was day 1 and I am already in  over my head. I'm drowning in numbers and symbols, that I am pretty sure I have never seen before. I actually cried tonight when I got home, I feel like am wasting my Hun's money on this. Hopefully tomorrow will better. Fingers cross that I make it through the next 9 days of Math.

Summer of Math

Can you guess what I've been doing this summer?

  I've been re-learning all the math that I forgot the day after my Grade 12 math exam. Oh Joy!!!!  And to top off this summer of math, I will be spending my last two weeks of  summer vacation at the  Math Readiness Camp that the university puts on. Oh Joy!  This will be remember as the summer of Math.

Happy 12 Anniversary

Most university students are dating  or maybe starting to thinking that they have found Mr or Miss right and about maybe getting married, but not this university student.  Today, my Hun and I celebrated our 12th (a dozen years of marriage) wedding anniversary.

It is funny to think that I will spend our next 4 wedding anniversaries in university.  When I receive my degree I will have been married 16 years (wow).

So Hun,  Happy Anniversary to you.  I love you even when you drive me crazy, or are many miles away.  No matter how crazy, or bad life is I am glad we have made it to this point and we can say that we love each other with all our hearts. Here is to many more years Hun!

I am happy to say that I have never bought the Hun a tie for an anniversary gift or any other gift.
