Week 1 Complete~

So ends my first week of class.

Friday was mostly brushing up on addition, I learned a few things I forgot and so it was ok. So far I have been given 2 worksheets to take home and do. I got the first one right with 4 exceptions, I read the directions wrong. And now I'm working on this next one due Monday. I really need to go buy some pencils and a smaller notebook. I am carrying around a 5 subject notebook when I only take 1 class and its getting annoying.

Other than that, I hung out with a friend. Went shopping at Costco, I really need to shop there more because I found somethings alot cheaper than what I could get anywhere else. I went tanning that same day. I am really wondering why some things happen the way they do.

I miss my Baby! He is gone to Odessa and I am stuck at home. I went and did something naughty last night but only a select few would know what that is haha. I am wondering what to do tonight being that I am able to do things while I can.

Time to think!

Ok so I went to 2 more classes and we pretty much went through another talk and then went straight to math. We are starting at the basics. Now I thought that it would be like addition or subtraction.. but no, we are starting out with the definition of what a Whole Number is... wow. So I will be attending this class for 11 weeks and I am excited that I am actually doing this. I look forward to this whole thing and learning what I already know haha. My teachers approach is nice and simple. I like that I don't have anything to be worried about right now. Got my first homework worksheet. Its due Friday but I finished it last night. It was easy stuff.

It is taking alot out of me this week. I had a whole plan today and I can not remember it. Work is getting tiring and just the gas to go to work and school is taking alot. I chose this and hopefully once I get the finicial aid that I need it will help out alot.

Family wise, I called my Auntie and she said the words that we all needed to hear and are relieved that she is on our side. My grandparents came over today and I spent time with them and they are ok with all this. They just don't want us to get taken advantage of. I understand that and thats why I talked with my cousin to help out around the house.

Anyway, need to remember what to do today and do it.

First Day~

Well, how should I put this... Today is one I would love to both forget and remember.

I was woken up by my cousin telling me she is sneaking out of the house and coming to my apartment. AT 3 AM!! And didn't show up till about 4 or 5 am. So basically I've been up since 3. A few hours later, about 7 ish I get a call from my grandparents and I get yelled at for taking in my cousin and for "butting in". All I did was tell my cousin that my door is open for her. She took the handout. Now her dad is "turning" the whole family against us for sticking up for each other. God I hate controlling people. Anyway, that was how my day started..

After that we, and by we I mean me and my boyfriend, made the plan of the day. Leave a key for my cousin to come back and basically go out and do our things for the day.

I went to work and then got all the things I planned on doing there done and so I left and went to class. I made it to the school 20 minutes early and spent a good 15 minutes looking for parking, I gave up so I parked illegally. I needed to pay for class so I walked to the Student Union and pay for the class I was there for. Did that and there was a ton of people paying tuition and so that made me late for my class. I was a good 5 maybe 6 minutes late.

Class went well. My teacher is David McAvoy. He seems cool, told us to call him David if we like. The time flew and next thing I know the class was dismissed and all we did was sign a few worksheets. So class was over and I walk to my car and there was a note on the windshield basically telling me that I could get cited if I park there again ha ha. I knew that was gonna happen but I was hoping that being that class was only an hour that I would be fine. Either way no harm no foul.

Went back to work and completed my day, but the stress of the mornings events took a toll on me. I was sick to my stomach and felt very faint through out the time I was there. I am hoping that tomorrow will be better and now that my cousin has told me of a nice parking spot I will feel even more relaxed. If this spot works out then I won't have to leave work as early as I do just to find parking.

SO.. an eventful first day of the quarter. I hope that I don't have anymore events like this happening again for a long time!

It's the last weekend of me being calm. I am excited to start life as a student and full time worker, but also just completely stressed. I absolutely despise math and I am gonna have to study this for an hour when I could be working. But you know what, this is why I am going back to school and moving on because I need more money and a better place to work.

I'm not saying I hate my job, I'm just saying that it doesn't go anywhere and I just had my yearly review and I was told I may or may not be getting a raise.. I've been there for almost 2 years in September and had a better review than last years, and I might not be getting a pay raise.. thanks.

I don't want to make minimum for the rest of my life and that is why I am bettering myself.

Again, I start on Monday and with ABE Math. I now gotta wake up an hour early and get ready for work. I just need to remember to wake up and remember to leave work at 11:30. I just hope this really doesn't change my hours. Well if I had a raise then it wouldn't fully matter... but I don't so yea.

Anyway I'm off. Gotta buy some clothes for work. Cuz they are too cheap just to give us uniforms..
