First and final

Today i took my only exam of the semester. It was a bit more stressful than usual because i really want an A and i know i've been hovering around A- land. Normally i don't care about that stuff but i got a 4.0 last semester and it would be cool to have a perfect record at GVSU. I mean how hard can it be only taking 1-2 classes a semester anyway? There were a few questions i blanked on. I just went right on past and by the time i finished everything else and came back to them, i at least had some ideas to play with.

Our proof portfolios were due at the time of the exam today as well. We only learned how to do some of the problems a week ago so there was a lot of work to finish up. Again i hope it's at least 93% good. If you want, you can see what i've been up to all semester.

I'm all signed up for classes starting in January. I'll be taking modern algebra and comp sci 1. Before you ask, i can tell you i honestly don't know what makes algebra "modern" but i'm sure i'll have a good idea at the end of the semester. Over the holiday break i have to teach my self some linear algebra because that's one of the prerequisites that i didn't have. Apparently, if i learn how to multiply matrices i'll be good to go.

Why are you taking these classes again? I'm sure you told me at some point, but my poor old mind is failing me. :)

I guess i'm just one of those people that actually enjoy school. I like to learn new things and i think these classes might teach me something useful. And someday i'd like a degree so everything else knows that i know what i'm talking about.
