Everywhere

I was talking with my Biology professor the other day and he said, just wait. You will be sitting waiting for a table at a restaurant and then you will start talking Biology with someone next to you. I said oh no, maybe you will but not me. Well I am finding it creeping in everywhere. I was watching Body of Proof last week and they found 2 types of blood at a crime scene and thought the roommate did it. Well He didn't. He had actually given his bone marrow to the roommate so the dead guy had his blood and the roommates in him. Hmmmm, Then totally unrelated, I am watching the Ranger playoff game and the pitcher for Detroit has one brown eye and one blue eye too. Wow I know it happens but haven't seen it up close like that. Then I start thinking Biology. We are studying DNA and I am thinking there is a mutation somewhere in the gene line. Hahaha. He was right. It is everywhere and here I am talking about it.
In English I am writing a paper on the short story "A Good Man is Hard to Find". Then I am watching Person of Interest the other night, and he is telling this guy on there he might be a good man you never know. A Good Man is Hard to Find. Hahahaha. Its everywhere.
So then I think should I just stop watching so much TV? Then I am thinking Social Work. One of our extra credit assignments is to go for 2 weeks without watching TV. ARGGGGG Make it stop.
So then I am thinking this isn't such a bad thing. That is why I am in school to learn right? So I guess I am getting my money's worth. Cause I am remembering. Also I did answer a History question on Jeopardy yesterday from some thing I learned in my History class. It is useful stuff, right?
Ya'll have a great week. I know I will. Watch out what you watch, and hear it could be useful.

Just a quick note

I made an 82 on my Biology Exam from last week. Yeah 10 points higher than my last test. Now I have to study for my History Test tomorrow. It counts 25 percent of my semester grade. More later. Skipping Social Work class. Not liking it much. I won't miss a lot though. Just discussion about children leaving homes in Honduras and other Central American countries to come to the US to either find relatives here or opportunities that they do not have in their country. Saw the first half yesterday. Will find out what I missed because Josette is in my History and SW class. She can let me know. Talk to ya'll soon.

Happy Columbus Day

Today is Columbus Day. Reminds me of Tx History. I studied where Columbus got the whole thing started in exploring the US. Anyway. Things are progressing really well. I received another A on my next English paper. Now I have a third one to turn in today. I am waiting for the grade on my Biology test. That was last Thursday and I will get the grade tomorrow when I go to class. I really hope I made at least a B on it. I have been trying to get some volunteer things done but it seems every time I am about to go in somewhere something happens and I can't. I was all set to volunteer today at my apt complex and they are closed for Columbus Day. Maybe it isn't meant to be. I do have some time in at Coalition For Life. Also will have some time in for the youth mission project next Sat. We shall see. I figured even if I don't get a grade for the volunteer time but I do everything else I will receive a B for the class. That's ok I guess. I really have to spend a lot more time studying than most people I think. I just found out last week that I am now in Complete Remission. I am so excited about that. NO more cancer in my body. I want to keep it that way. So now I have to work even harder and faster to reach my goals, so I can work and sustain us after disability ends. I am concentrating on Spring registration now. I have to prepare to go in and take a math equivalency test. It will tell if I am ready for college math or if I need a remedial course first. I hope I don't. But it has been a long while since I have done math at all. Closest thing I guess was listening in on Joshua while he was being tutored in Algebra yesterday. So we shall see. I need to get that done this next week. Then get the rest of my classes set up. I have to take a class for my degree either in Art, Film or Music. So I think it will be music appreciation. It will have a lot to do with ancient composers like Bach and Mozart. Well I had better go and get to studying on History. I have a Tx History test on Thursday and I want to do much better that a 75 I did on the last test. More later about that Biology test. Have a great wek, I know I will.
