Melaleuca, School and Job

Well, last night after passing my placement test after 3 tries!!!! I started my college algebra class, only to realize right away that I was in WAY over my head and I have to drop it! What a waste of time...and kind of embarrassing too I guess. Though, the good news is as long as I drop it by Monday, I don't have to pay for it. Another good thing is it turns out...it wasn't even nessessary! (Gee thanks academic couselor for letting me know sooner *sarcasm). Anyway, the only reason I was taking it here on campus was because it is cheapter than GCU and I thought I would do better in a classroom setting for math. Well, the class I signed up for was MA 103 and my couselor told me yesterday that anything over a MA100 is good enough. So I will just take MA 102 next semester and transfer it ove and it will be fine. But like I said before...what a waste of time! I had an interview with the kids principal yesterday also and it looks like I've got a job! Yay! Well, it isn't much. They have all the staff members they need but they are putting me on the list as a sub. Not a subsitute teacher but like a substitute assistant. They have teachers in the young classes and in the special ed classes. Then helping those teachers are Educational Assistants who work full time. I am a substitute for them. Wow, the more I explain it the worse it sounds lol. But anyway, I am excited to be getting anything! Also I have high hopes for a full time summer job at the Youth Center on Hickam. I really, REALLY hope and pray I get it. Sydnee and Collin will be able to go with me everyday and participate in the programs for free. The do all kinds of cool stuff!! Its like camp! I really hope I get the job. The interview went well and I called to check on my status and they said that the people have been chosen but they weren't allowed to say anything, someone will contact me if I got the job. Does that sound good or bad??? I'm qualified and like I said, I really thought the interview went well. So now I am just waiting for that phone call. Something else I am excited about is I have been a member of Melaleuca Wellness Company for about a month now. I just placed my second order and so far I like all the products. Mike "allowed" me to do it on a trial basis just to see how it goes, if its worth it and so on. So I have until around September to convince him that this stuff is great! :) He isn't easy to convince. Well, lots have been going on here so I better get going to it. Did I mention my A/C is out in the van? Oh well, that is for another blog post. Praise the Lord we have a jeep. Hey, who needs A/C when you can drive around with no doors or walls?
