St. George Rainbow 2012 End of Semester

This summer I had to take a math class for my degree, Math 1100 Business Calculus. It had been 8 years since I took Pre-Calculus so I was a little nervous getting into the class. When I originally registered for it it said that I didn’t have the prerequisites for the course. I was really frustrated because I had taken the prerequisite Math 1050, but it had been 8 years. So I called the counselors at the school to see what the problem was and they informed me that my Math credits were no longer valid because it had been 2 years. This was something I was unaware of and they instructed me that I would either have to test back in to the class or get the Dean of the Math Department to sign me in. I called the Dean and he was on his way out of town on vacation and would not be back until the day before class actually started. I didn’t know what the freak to do. I knew that if I took the test I wouldn’t test high enough because it had been so long, but I also knew that if they signed me in I would be able to keep up and pass the class. I decided to wait… The Dean returned and agreed to sign me in to the Business Calculus class. So for the past 8 weeks I have been going to Business Calculus Tues, Wed, and Thurs during my lunch time from work. Finally the class has ended 6 chapters, 3 tests, 2 teachers, and 1 final later the class is over!!! Halle-FREAKING-lujah! Needless to say I must gloat a little that even after an 8 year sabbatical from Math I still passed Business Calculus…But to gloat even more I scored the highest in the class ending the semester with an A and a 100.2% for the semester! I still got it!!!! BooYeah!

I have a couple more weeks before Fall semester starts up and I will take that free time to update this website with more content and start my other education blogs about art and design. This Blog stuff is new to me but I Like it!!! “Tommy Like Wingy”  So in the words of Ron Burgandy “Stay Classy San Diego” and if you aren’t in San Diego just “Stay Classy” anyway!
