The Laptop

So, I ended up getting a laptop. My first ever. I have desktop, three in fact: one my daughter has in her room, one I use and the one Rick uses. The one I use is about 8 yrs old. And VERY slow. We updated it, added memory and yet, it still lags. Old. Worn out. I use the other two but when Rick and Kirsten are both home and I have homework, well you can see the predicament.

Part of the decision to get a laptop was so that I can use it for Zumba. The music will be on here and I will play it from here tied into the stereo system at the place I do zumba. Plus of course for my school work!

Now, to get used to it. It's really not that bad. I like that I can take it with me anywhere.. I got an HP d7...It's a 17.3 size. Love it!!

Well, I had two tests this week and I did HORRIBLE on them. I got a 63 on one and a 65 on the other...I felt SO bad!! I studied my butt off for them and for some reason just did horrible. I really felt confident with both of them too. One was for my Physical Science 2 class. We had been doing the Periodical Table and of course learning about Binary Compounds and how to write the formulas and then write formulas into the symbols. And I screwed up!! I don't even know how I did. Just that I did. That has made me feel so bad. I'll have to just do better next time!

I'll tell you though, this semester has been difficult. I am exhausted and just plain tired of going to school. I feel like I've lost sight of my goal. I have been in school for 6 semesters now and will still have 2 more years after I get in the Radiology Program. I am BUMMED!

On the upside, I was officially asked to become a part of the "Phi Theta Kappa Honor Society"!!! Talk about excitement!!!! And Yes, I am official!! That says something about my hard work and yet, I AM SO EXHAUSTED! Ok, done ranting...

Til Later All!!!
