As much as I am looking forward to the snow, I am not looking forward nor did I look forward to having my brain freeze on the spot when I encountered my algebra test. I know how to do the problems...I KNEW how to do the problems....but I froze. Test Anxiety? Possibly....but I don't get that with my other classes....just algebra.
Bless my darling grandson's heart (Daniel)...he said....Lala....just pray and read your scriptures and it will be okay. He's right...I did pray and have been reading my scriptures and my grades are improving....I'm still failing all the tests and quizzes, but my scores are better than they were when I first started taking the class. So...I remain optimistic and I know that I probably won't pass the class but I am improving and I plan on taking the class again. I am grateful it is a pass-no-pass class therefore it won't affect my GPA, but it does affect my psyche when I fail. But I know as long as I do my part, studying, etc, that the Lord won't let me down, He has helped me quite a bit and believe it or not....this actually has been good for me. The stress at first was about to kill me emotionally, however, as each week goes by, I am less stressful about taking the tests and feeling a bit more confident. I really can't explain it, but it's true.
The winds are blowing like crazy tonight, big storm comin' in and snow expected in the next 24 to 48 hours....and I'm working at Tooele Jr High tomorrow and then on Friday Tooele High. Truly grateful for the jobs, and for the crazy weather, even if it will be tough to drive in.
