Week 2 -- 2nd Term; Update

I just finished my 2nd week for the term and I am proudly able to say I am doing very well. So far, I have A's in both of my online classes. I am doing amazing in my Reading class and alright in my Math class. I had a quiz on Wednesday in Math and feel as if I did horrible on it. I get it back on Monday so we will see how I did.

This is a small update, but it's something :)

Week 1 -- 2nd Term; Update

My first week of school was exhausting! I had no clue I would get so tired from 4 classes. Two of them are online so I don't even have to walk to a class and sit in it for hours. I guess I am just ahead of myself a little bit. I hate not having something to do these days. I never used to like doing things but I guess Oregon has something on me and it constantly wants me to stay occupied. Haha.

Reading 2 Class: I made a new friend in class. Her name is Lexy and she sits right in front of me. Her career goal is to major in Computer Science. She said it's her 1st term at RCC. I am looking forward to having a "friend" in class but hopefully I don't get too distracted. There are two other students in my class from my previous reading class. The teacher is very nice. She doesn't assign too much work either.

Math Class: This class is packed with people. My teacher is A LOT different than my previous math teacher. He makes me miss my other teacher, haha. He doesn't fully explain things step by step which is a huge problem with my comprehension. Yesterday, we were given a problem and I couldn't figure out what he was asking us to do. Everybody except the girl next to me was able to figure it out. I guess it's something I have to deal with and if I get stuck, ask for help. That's something I've never done before but I can't afford to fail this class and take it again next semester. Not going to happen. But on a positive note, the teacher is very relaxed and laid back.

Medical Terminology Class: This is a full class online. I am ahead of the class. Not by much though. I completed the first weeks work on Tuesday when class started on Monday. I feel great. I also completed Chapter 1's quiz on Tuesday as well. It's not due until the 14th of this month. I passed it and got only 1 question wrong which gave me a 95% on the quiz. Awesome! I just completed an assignment for Chapter 2 last night and turned that in early. On top of turning that in, I completed Chapter 2's quiz as well. That also isn't due until the 14th of this month. I scored an 85% which left me missing 3 questions. I am not doing so bad in this class and I couldn't be any happier with it. The teacher is nice but she can also have a strict side to her, just like most teachers these days in college.

Health Care Class: This class is also a full class online. A lot of students are still in High School. I have completed all of the assignments early in this class as well. I feel great for being ahead of the class and myself. Let's just hope it doesn't mess me up in the end. *Fingers crossed* The teacher seems nice but it's hard to tell over a computer, haha.

I will post updates every week at the end of each week to let you know about my progress in school.

Stay tuned <3

Cost Of Livin'

I watched this video last night and couldn't stop thinking about how lucky people are to have what they have when there are others in far worse conditions. This video is very sad but definitely true.

I love you, Ronnie Dunn.

Crazy

In High School, I knew a guy named Steve Johnson. He was one year above me. We had Spanish 2 class together and he always sat right behind me. He was a VERY nice guy. We kept in touch once he graduated in 2005. I cannot believe how crazy it is to think he's in the NFL now playing as a WR for the Buffalo Bills and now recording a track with a famous rapper. Some of you may or may not know who The Game is but that is who Steve is recording with. I remember when Steve rapped in High School. Boy, does time fly. Here's the video:
