I just took my most recent math test and I got an A (barely, it was a 90.3 but an A nonetheless)!! It took almost the entire 3 hours to do it, but I did it. I was freaking out, but I guess it turned out OK!!
Thanks, Beth and Tara for your support!!!

GPA is a PITA
Most everything is going well this term. However, there are two classes, Math and Intro to MIS, which may end up being the downfall to my 4.0 GPA. I wish I didn't care, but I can't turn it off. I know that, without a ton of effort, I could just cruise by, pass everything, and be done with it. Not me though, I have to push and push to get that 'A'. I think therapy is in order.

Midterms & News
Wow, 3 weeks since I posted!! I promise not to let THAT happen again.
Here is an update on my courses:
Marketing - A so far - I turned in my portion of the marketing plan (our major group project) yesterday, so I only have tests and discussion questions to do now.
Math - After my lowest section score is dropped, I'll be pulling an 'A' again. That first test was AWFUL and now I'm freaking out about the final. I'm about a week ahead in the work.
Technical Report Writing - Working on my final report, I'm about 2 weeks ahead.
Electronic Culture - This has really turned out to be my favorite class. I'm a week ahead in assignments and doing well so far.
Hardware/Software Integration - I thought this was going to be the most fun, but it stinks. We get very little work and the tests are confused with the previous edition of the book, so you never know what you're actually supposed to learn.
Intro to Relational Databases - Working on Final Project now, should have that done by the weekend, then it's just tests
Intro to MIS - TOUGH class! This class is probably going to be the downfall to my GPA.
The upside is that I'm definitely going to get at least a B in everything and an A in most things, but that/those 'Bs' will bug me.
On the personal side, basketball and cheerleading are in full swing so that basically eats up my Saturdays, but it is a ton of fun to watch the kids. Brandon has two games each Saturday and Kimberly cheers for another.
The BIG NEWS this week is that Kimberly made the finals of the Oregon State Pageant of National American Miss, so now we have to come up with her "sponsor fee" to participate. This is NOT a typical pageant because everything is age appropriate (no make-up or swimsuits). If you would be willing to help with any financial donation, or be willing to donate or loan a formal length gown in a girls size 7 or 8, then we'd really appreciate it.
