Hi all,
I had my 1st day of math class today and I am starting to get excited about the class. The other students seem nice, the instructor is nice, and I was able to pretty much focus on what was being said with my mind only wandering some. A lot of what was said today though was introductions and such. A lot will be covered in the class and some of the students are taking the class for the 2nd time. It's like I have forgot most of my mutiplication table which is where we are starting out at. I learned today what an exponet is and the difference between an alegebra equation and an expression. _________________

That's fantastic. Keep going and learning. Where I used to work there were signs everywhere that said, "When you're done learning, you're done ." Just a little reminder that learning is an important part of our lives. _________________

Thank you Rusty. I'm working on intergers since yesterday. It's been hard to grasp how to use them in different eqauations. I"ve got all day today to work on learning it though. _________________

from all this homework I've been doing. It would not be so bad if I could remember all the rules but I can not. I'm up to my eye balls in trying to figure out my homework to even do it. I've been working on the same 14 problems for hours today and still can not get them all correct. I have a total of about 100 problems to do altogether. Each group of about 10 to 15 problems progress to a different level. _________________
