Math is kicking my trash! It's funny really, when you don't do something for a long time and then when you are faced with it, it seems even MORE foreign. I thought for sure it would all come rushing back to me and I would be flying through most of it. Clearly I was wrong. When I first got there they made me take this placement test to see what level of math I was on. When I got done I went up to the instructor and as she was going over it she kept chuckling. I thought to myself, well yes, I'm sure it's amusing since I haven't been in school for like 6 years. Then she said, "it's funny because the ones you missed are the easy ones and the ones you got right are the hard ones" So apparently I'm good at long division and bad at subtracting. But she was nice, she let me fix them right there in front of her and I wasn't more than a number off on the ones I got wrong, I was just going to fast I guess. But still, math is so hard for me. It's the one class I never took in college. I guess I was saving it for last. Anyways, I give anyone out there who is good with numbers a huge applause. You're lucky that it comes so natural for you. Call me if you feel like tutoring me :)
