I'm Still Here

I haven't went away or anything, just been busy with a lot of things. There are only like 3 1/2 more weeks of school left for me this semester and it's going to be a busy 3 1/2 weeks. Tons of papers to write, test to do and then exams. With the Thanksgiving break that is coming up too, those weeks are going to go by even quicker. I'm steadily trying to bring up my grade in Statistics to a C. The instructor is assigning more homework assignments to help us out a bit from low test scores that we all are bringing in. My Immediate Accounting I class is ok. I just have to practice the homework assignments that are given, although my first test I didn't do so hot on. I even spent the entire week doing the test before it had to be turned in. I took my time and went through my notes and textbook that we were able to use and still didn't do well. I just have to try harder.

Registration for Spring 2009 classes started this past Monday. I went to my advisor and got what I needed for registering online, although I still have to pay for my parking ticket before I can register for my classes. Trying to do little extra jobs online is what is also keeping me busy so that I can get some extra money for that. Hopefully I will be able to pay it Monday *crossing fingers* So next semester, I'm planning to take only 3 classes to still keep my full time status, but also so that I don't feel overloading and overwhelmed like I was this semester. This weekend I have another take home test to do for Statistics to finish up, a letter to write to an imaginary CEO for my accounting class and then some reading for my history class. I'm planning to get started on my assignments later tonight when the kids, including hubby, are asleep so that I can concentrate on what I need to do.

Accounting Test, Exam, Midterms and a Parking Ticket

So starting on a happy note, I got a B on the third test in accounting. I had a huge grin on my face, I couldn't believe that I made a B. Everyone in class did well, there weren't any complaints so that ended my night on a good note. I have the exam on Wednesday night along with a project due on the same night in accounting. There is a midterm for History on Tuesday night and then a take home test that will be given to us in Statistics to be done over the fall break.

On the other hand, the same night, I ended up getting a parking ticket on campus. I parked in the designated area, didn't do a speeding violation, didn't park out of line or anything. I got it because my vehicle isn't registered, I guess to use on campus. Over the summer I had to get a new tag and wasn't able to make it to the CCE check-in when they had it at the beginning of August, but I knew that I had to get it registered. You know how things go, a lot of stuff on your mind and plate and a few things just slip. Well I will be paying a big $100 for that slip. I didn't make it in time before the office closed to do so on Thursday, so hopefully Tuesday I can get there early enough to get that done. It's funny though, the one area that I don't normally park in is where I get the ticket. The two areas that I do park out, all the time where I normally just pull into a space, I never gotten a ticket (knock on wood).....
