Revised Results

--Okay, I have them in front of me now. They are:
Critical Thinking Skills: Reading and Communications...291
Communication Skills...271
Critical Thinking Skills: Mathmatics...268
Computation Skills...271((what is the difference between math and this one?)) Liberal Studies: Science, Art&Literature, Social Studies...283
Critical Thinking Skills: Writing...240
Scaled Total Test Score...271

Anywho, that is what the paper shows, and they are out of 300.

--I talked to my doctor's office today as well...I have to start ace bandaging my foot as well as the boot...isn't that nice? I can also still not work, I have to keep it elevated and off of it as much as possible..oh well..c'est la vie...:o(

--I finished HPHBP a couple of days ago...I didn't cry cause I expected it to happen after the first meeting in the book...like the second chapter, if that. The only thing that made me really sad and want to cry was the line that talked about Fawkes' cry ending and him leaving never to return to Hogwarts again. That was just way too sad. And my thought, (since you seem to be the only one who reads me, Lynlee, and you've read it already) is that he and Snape set it up together to get Snape in The Dark Lord's good graces and trust him wholly. Cause she mentioned something with Hagrid, him saying that he overheard him and Snape arguing and Snape saying he didn't want to do something he was ordering him to do. Who knows, I could be wrong. :oP I guess we'll just have to wait for the next installment of this now becoming soap operaish book. It's just becoming way too depressing and dark lately...I guess she has it all figured out..::shrugs::

Celebrate!

I'm not sure if I mentioned that I was supposed to take my first teaching test of like four, and I did a couple of months ago. Well...I got the results in, and I got an overall score of 271/300!!!!! OMG!! I passed!! and with a very good score! 240 was the lowest passing score allowed, and I made a 240 on the essay part ((I ran out of time and didn't make the full 4 pages :o( )), I got a 291 on my reading comprehension/English part, a 271 on Math and Computations, a 281 on Geography/History, and something similar on Science, but I can't recall the exact score atm, heh. I will change it to what it's supposed to be when I can, I just can't run downstairs and get the results if you know what I mean.
Anywho, since I passed, I'm now enrolled to get my Bachelor's Degree in Early Childhood Education. Woo hoo! At least it's something to look forward to..It's so late, and I should be in bed. Night.

Yadda Yadda

I have been doing absolutely nothing for the past week, and I'm bored out of my mind! I can't go to my computer, I'm using my dad's lap top at the moment. I have been sitting on my couch with my foot in it's "cast", keeping it elevated, and not walking on it as much as possible. Well, Sunday it popped across where it's broke, and it hurt like hell and has been hurting since. I'm hoping that was a good thing..Anywho, I've not been able to work because of it, and won't be able to I guess until it's healed, because I can't even drive myself, seeing as how it's my right foot. That sucks, but a manager at work is looking into maybe getting me paid while I can't work. We'll see what happens. Until then, happy thoughts out to everyone.

Ha Ha

Thought I'd have just a little "I'm bored" time, since I can do absolutely nothing else and I finally made it up stairs for today. I can't stay up here long though, because I have to keep my foot up, and off of it. I read E's blog and took her "What tree are you?" test and decided to take a few others. I'll post a couple and just report the others.

The Case of the Broken Foot

I was carrying some art portfolios to help out the art department and was going to put them away. I didn't see the box around the corner where I was going and tripped over it. I knew right away something was wrong. Excruciating pain shot up my foot and I just stood there hoping I had just stepped wrong to catch my weight, but I knew better. My foot started swelling almost immediately in my shoe so I had to take it off. I hobbled to the break room to look at my foot, it was swollen and the toes were swelling and turning purple. I hobbled painfully to the lockers to call my mom, she made an appointment to see my doctor. I had to drive with my left foot, which was very strange for me, because I couldn't put any pressure what-so-ever on my right. Guess what?? After some X-rays and many tears...my prognosis? I broke my foot. Excellent. :o( I have to wear a boot for 4 weeks at least. Great. And I am in a standing all day kind of position at work, lovely. And now I feel horrible because I was going to take Lynlee and Pax to the Zoo or Jenks Aquarium when they come on Sunday...that's out of the question now...What is it with me trying to kill myself when I'm supposed to visit Lynlee?! Just not fair, Dammit! ::cries:: well...I've dislocated, fractured, sprained, twisted and now broke the same damn foot...Way to go clumsy! :o(

::Cry::

I really hate my drive to work and can't wait until they move the store closer...I got pulled over this morning, got a $120 speeding ticket, but the cop was nice by putting 75 in a 65 instead of 79. I was going with the flow of traffic and didn't realize how fast I was going. This was after I struggled with my dumb shoe to get it over my swollen foot, and was late for work...ugh..just a bad day...I had to close with a group of people that I don't really know well enough to get along with, so I was pretty much doing my stuff all alone. Usually there is someone closing with me that I can talk to and will help each other out to finish whatever...well, not tonight...::sighs:: I guess we all have those kinds of days..

Happy Holiday!

Happy Independence Day!! Yay! I had a good time, and lots of really good works out here. I had to work today ((boooo!!)) but I got off early enough to eat, visit, watch and play with the works.

Blegh

--I've been sick the last couple of days, and just not feeling well. I came home early from work yesterday vomiting and really nauseous...oh boy for me...

--The fourth is tomorrow and I wanted to wish everyone a happy 4th of July, and hope you have a good holiday. I invited some friends that usually come every year, and haven't heard a word from them. I wonder if everything is okay..? I tried to contact them, but didn't get a reply. I guess that was a no, heh. We'll miss them and their kids..

--I attract the weirdos in an online game, just like I do in real life...it's a long story about meeting a guy in WoW, him being weird, me ignoring him, him finally going away after much persuasion from my saucy little canadian girl, then somehow returning to being my friend (due to my incessent forgiveness factor), and him weirding out again. It just seems to be a never ending cycle for me...but I guess I cause it on myself. ::sighs:: One day I'll get it right, and it will all have been worth it...at least that's what I can keep telling myself, right?
