iphone hp-15c calculators ???? 3 weeks ago

My friend came over and we did a ceremony to get me to start studying my calulus book. I had to use a scientific calculator so I downloaded the iphone hp 15c. Can’t figure out how to find an angle. Big distraction these calculators. Back in the day we used tables.



my friend is a genius 4 weeks ago

My friend rented me a NetFlix DVD of Differential Equations which is the class I need to complete. It was such an awesome presentation that I know I can do it now. they have a Calculus dvd too, so I’m going to get it. I was so inspired that now I want to teach math again.



A possible job 1 month ago

My friend has work for me if I finish this degree. Have to take the test in December. I think I can do it.



reteach myself calculus and differential equations 6 months ago

I have to take one test to finish. After that, I can very easily get the type of job that I’d love to have. I got my reminder email from my former dean today and I’m going to do it this time. I’m going to make a self study program that will allow me and anybody who needs the extra help to learn calculus and differential equations. I have the books and even though I’m many years off from using the math, I know I can do it. My first practice test is July 4 2009. My real test will be in September.



online might be the way 12 months ago

I got materials from an online college today. Maybe I can just take the course I need that way and then test out at my old school in the spring.



working on the math 15 months ago

So this afternoon I’m spending 2 hours in the math book. I love math. It should be fun. I also need a plane ticket to Nevada.



email and bravery 19 months ago

I wrote my old school and the Dean of the math department came up with a couple of suggestions for me to try to get the class done. He said maybe I could do it independent study here, or maybe I could just go there and challenge the test. I didn’t know I could do that! So I am going to try!



the letter 19 months ago

I’m going to write the dean of the math department at my old university and find out if I can take the class online.



encouragement 21 months ago

I got encoureagement to try this again from a new person that we hired for our project. He is pretty darn happy, so I’m going to have to be more like him to be the happiest. What a challenge. I told him my dilemma and he said to just take the class again.



the day came and went 22 months ago

I didn’t retake the class. Today was the first day. I would have to miss the class this Friday and several other Fridays that I know about in the next months, so , not right now.
