I am feeling under the weather! BUT accomplished

Since about Sunday I have been feeling a sinus issue coming on. Yesterday was bad BUT I still went to the local community to take the assessment exams that are needed to tell me where to start.

ahhh feeling like crap and taking tests I would advise against it. I did poorly in the math part but I knew that would happen!I have never been a math person however between my husband and Algebrahelp.com I was able to relearn the basics too bad they just seemed to throw random questions at me. That kinda upset me because I was diligent in printing sample tests and such before I went and that's where I had issue.

I have to take a butt load of math classes to even get to the ones that count...great! I knew that would be the case but I am still not excited, I have decided those will be the first to go so I can get them out of my way!

I tested out of reading so I don't have to take any reading courses, actually tested at 93/100 so should I want to I could take an HONORS class hahaha! In the writing exam I was 5 points from being where I need to be. I blame that on my head really even the advisor told me to take it again because reading and writing scores usually go hand in hand. I will do that so I can save myself a class!

This is a huge step for me! I was never the best student I REALLY have to work at school, my twin brother on the other hand always sailed through. I have made up my mind that I will have a degree before I die! It will take me a long while since I am at home with my kids alone the majority of time, but a couple of classes at a time is something even I can do!

I will be working towards an Associate in Liberal Arts For Transfer. Doing it this way allows me to work on the basics while not having to commit to a particular field for my degree, and all credits are transferable to a university.

I will not let the fear of failure stop me any longer,It has always stopped me dead in my tracks! Its ok to fail if you tried your hardest it is not ok to never try!

Good for you!! I wish you the best of luck. School is horrible. School while being a full time parent is 3x horrible. The rewards of receiving a diploma is priceless. I had been out of highschool about 17 years when I went back to college and got my degree in Computer Information Systems and I couldn't be more proud of my accomplishment. I did that while being a full time single mom with two teenage daughters. It wasn't easy but it was worth every minute of time it took. I wish you the best!
