Things are going relatively well
Thursday, June 08, 2006
I almost hate to write about it, as I might jinx my latest good fortune. I might just have to hug the letter carrier if he continues to bring me good news. Or maybe it will be the Publishers Clearinghouse Prize Patrol that will be next. (One can dream.)
In the middle of this Chemistry-is-kicking-my-butt class, I have been stressing over paying for the Fall semester. Money is tight so it would be hard to find the extra cash for school. Well, problem solved. Tuesday, I get notice about two scholarships I have won. Then, on Wednesday I get check for another scholarship I have received. Whew! Now, I can go back to stressing about other things.
Chemistry grade is improving. My lab grade is at the high B/low A range. My last two experiments haven't been great, so there is no way to get A's on those assignments. Good news on the lecture side, though. I receive a 100 on the first test. Today, we took Exam#2 and I think I did well. Maybe not a 100, but definitely an A.
Also on Tuesday, I received something else that was wonderful in the mail. Jury duty notice!!! I've always wanted to be on a jury, and I am finally getting my chance. I was just praying that the date would be after my class is over. And it is! So, in July I will be off to Clayton with a bag of puzzles and books to kill the time.
Now, if I can just find my cell phone this week it will be near perfect. On a related note, I did find my old Verizon phone (which when I lost was the reason for me to get a new phone and switch to T-Mobil). Oh, me and my lost cell phones.
