God, life is crazy right now. Actually, I expect it to mellow out a bit now that we're comfortably into the school year. I don't have a class in session right now, but I hope to have one Oct 20th. None of the teachers around here are getting very many inquiries. It's very odd. I had to cancel my September class, and I have never had to do that.
I've been talking and talking and talking about applying as a substitute paraeducator with the school district, and I finally finished my cover letter and resume last week. I was waiting for my transcripts from TCC to complete my resume, and guess what?
I only need a 100 level math and a natural science (with lab) class to get my Associate's degree.
Two measley classes.
I am thinking about taking chemistry online, and then that leaves math. Good ol' math. I dropped my last math class twice and never did complete it, and that was math 99, I believe. I still didn't make it to 100 level math in 2 years. That is how bad I am with math.
So my conundrum is, do I bite the bullet and take those last two classes, or do I just stay this close to to finishing. Well, finishing that step anyway.
And then I found what I want to go on to afterwards:
This.
Someday.
I just paid off my piddly little student loan in August, and I really don't want to get another one going; however, with only about $1,000, I can be half-way towards a BA. A full quarter of classes at UW-Tacoma is $2, 244, which would end up being a $20,000 endeavor, if my poor math skills are at all accurate this time.
Oy.

NO! Don't take chemistry! Take geology. It will be much more fun, and you won't find it stressful. I took an online chem course and it stressed me out because it was hard to get concepts explained via the internet. I only got half as much out of it as I got out of the higher level science course (micro biology?) that I took on campus. It has been so long since I've blogged or read a blog. I can't believe how much I've missed.
