For days I went back and forth with whether I should go to school or keep my job at Winners; as it turned out, once I took the math assessment test everything happened very quickly. The assessment was awful (I left more than half the test blank) the college recommended I start at Math 50, the next morning I showed up with an empty notebook and a pen.
I resigned from the big box store the next day. Yay! My last day is Thursday, then I have a shift at the clothing store on Saturday. After a few days off, I'll start applying for something else I can work between the hours of 11 a.m. and 7 p.m.
I really enjoy the math class and I find that shocking! But since I need to complete three high school math courses before I can start the Business Admin Program, I thought I should start asap.
Twenty-nine years after finishing (and barely passing) grade ten math, it's coming back to bite me on the butt. Surreal!
Good luck to you Kate. Opening doors for sure.
ReplyDeleteDitto what Lori said, good on you for committing to it, bonus that you're enjoying it too.
ReplyDeleteGood for you, this is going to open up so many doors for you.
ReplyDeleteHave fun with it.
You will do great. I loved Math -- and I looked back a while ago at my Calculus book from SFU - was all Greek to me now!!! But Math can be your friend - I love watching our Math instructors in action here.
ReplyDeleteAbsorb, learn and grow - its all GREAT!!!
Now that is very cool....taking this class. I'm sure you will do very well.
ReplyDeleteI'm not sure I could start over and go back, good for you! I took that diploma in college (accounting major though) and I'm good at math, so if you need any help - just call!
ReplyDeleteThat's great Kate. Good luck!
ReplyDeleteoh, high school math (sigh!) good luck :)
ReplyDeleteI admire you for going after it now. Even if time has passed at least you never gave up. Good luck!
ReplyDeleteSchool can be a lot easier as an adult, and you will likely have fun with it, too.
ReplyDeleteYou're the best
