Mathematical Miracles

I took a math placement test today, after doing no math for two years.
I didn't study.
My relationship with math is comparable to oil and water. I loathe math. And I suck at it.
Honestly, a lot of my answers were guesses.

I didn't think I'd get into the class I wanted to. I placed into the class at a different college--two years ago. Of course THIS college wouldn't accept those test scores...but that's a different story.

Miracle of all miracles,  I placed into the class I wanted!!
Thank You Jesus.
Even though Christmas isn't a part of my vocabulary this year, no festivities, decorations, or presents, this was one of God's *many* gifts to me this month.

And now I finally feel as though my winter break has really, truly, FINALLY begun!!!!!!!!!

I found two more cool things from weheartit.com and I have to share before I go to bed.



I hope everyone experiences Christmas miracles this week--no matter how big or small they are!

Truth.

 
(we heart it)

Studying? DO NOT READ!!

IMPORTANT:

If you are cramming for finals, the following sites you absolutely must NOT visit, for fear of hours of wasted productive time. They are as follows:

www.cakewrecks.com (being a baking junkie and a fun-country person, I get a kick out of this site)
www.awkwardfamilyphotos.com (never ceases to amaze me how awkward some of these get...)
Anything that ends with blogspot.com. (Bunny-trail galore! Need I say more??)
www.yahoo.com (I can forever click on the newsfeed and read articles/watch videos)
www.youtube.com (sure, good for getting good study songs. but much easier to just, well, watch videos.)
www.craigslist.com (not just for finding jobs or cool junk. it's amazing what you can read on this thing!)
www.twitter.com/ (easy to spend HOURS clicking on tweets,retweets, pics, and twitter accounts)
www.weheartit.com (I think the creativeness intrigues me.)
www.tiffanytreece.tumblr.com (shameless plug! I spent forever looking at this. I just discovered it yesterday, and well, it is bringing me oodles of happiness!!)

* disclaimer * sometimes these sites have some, well, inappropriate content...so I can't take any responsibility stuff that isn't perfectly 100% clean. As always, browse smartly! =)


It sounds like I seriously need to unplug and get a LIFE. Or maybe a less dorky life. At LEAST I'm not spending 95% of my internet time on Facebook. I cannot. stand. facebook.

Okay, Sociology. I HEAR you already!! I must go now.
Toodles! I hope if you have finals this week you are focusing better than me!!
Before I go, I must share this--I found it yesterday and cracked up when I read this. I don't like this cartoon. I've never watched a full episode of Spongebob in my life. But I think this is hilarious. : D Enjoy!!

Four. More. Days.

ahhhhh, blog. What did I ever do to procrastinate before you?? You indeed are a very easy and tempting choice when trying to avoid studying for my final exam. At all costs.
Okay, I want to be random for the moment.
Manafest's " Every Time You Run" is awesome.
And if a boy out there has a crush on me, he'd better serenade me with Shane Harper's "Rocketship" or Jason Derulo's "It Girl". Yeah, I'm kinda being a whacko girl right now. I don't care though. =)

Looks like my family will be moving Thursday, right after my final final. Yay. I hope so, cuz the weather probably won't be cooperating after that!

FOUR more days until sweet, oh so sweet, freedom!! (Funny, I just wrote a definitional paper on freedom, and now this word has a whole new level of meaning to me. I guess I actually DID learn something in college!! What a concept...)
Anyway. Freedom, of any form will be won-der-ful. I am also...

looking forward to some peace.

and quiet.
And, oh God, let's not forget
 normalcy.

I think I've forgotten what that is.

Because I've now wasted oogles of time, I must go now. Here's a picture that I found on weheartit. because I love that site. And Tenth Avenue North. Which is where the lyrics from this song come from.
And it's just good to be reminded of truth sometimes.

3 down. 9 to go.

Hello Cyber world!

Celebrating tonight with a post because... I am DONE with one of my four classes. Absolutely-positutely done. Let the people rejoice!! =)
I am still planning on going and giving the professor a gift on Wednesday for being the wonderful professor that he is. Although the class was controversial, I have to give him props for not being slanted and being that kind of wonderful professor that makes you feel special and important (even though he has, like probably 300 students currently). So, I'll be buying a Chick-fil-A sandwich with no pickles, an order of waffle fries, and in case he can't accept food, a nice book. The book is always a good fall back, no matter what professor you have.

I hate how professors pile on work at the end of the semester, and consequently I have a bunch of stuff to do before I can claim my winter break. It'll come before I know it, and then I'll move my family back home 100% and life will be NORMAL.

Whatever 'normal' is.

Anyway, random Q: has anyone heard of the websites ending in xxx? like, www.buy.xxx? It sounds like a porn site to me, but I saw advertisements for it several times tonight. I'm very curious about that. Surely we have enough .com .org .net sites to do without resorting to .xxx, don't we?? Apparently not.

Happy Monday, almost Tuesday, almost winter break!!!!


Love,
