As many of you know I've been studying for my GED. I think I've gotten myself on a pretty good program. But, let me tell you holy crow has it been a LONG time since I've done this! I just finished up the Language and Writing Skills preperation and wow I had no idea that the English language had so many rules lol.
I never really had a problem with English in school. I always managed to pass it. Where I really struggled was with math. I was having a discussion with a friend earlier this evening and he had said if I needed any help to let him know. So, we got talking about math. He made a comment that really made me giggle. He said "They lost me at x=ab squared....WTF?" Why do we add letters? Seriously.
But, if I want to better my life, I have to pass it. I took the GED test years ago, while Lana was still small and I passed everything but the math. I was told once I have a 3rd grade math level. I'll be so happy once this test is done and over with and I can move on to the fun stuff....career training!
I wish I had never left school. When I left, I had 4 months to go til graduation and I was passing all my classes for a change. I had even been accepted to my dream college. I was going to be a Kindergarten teacher. Of course that was before I had kids lol. I love my kids but I honestly don't think I could handle 20 of them every day.
I think when I finish this, I'd like to train to be a photographer or graphic designer. I love playing with pictures and transforming them into something beautiful. I've even started doing my kids own school pictures. The way I see it is, if you have the know how to do it, why pay someone and get a limit as to what you can have done? Every 6 months, I dress my kids up and take several snapshots. Then, I take them into photoshop and "work my magic" as my friend Tiffany likes to say. Stay tuned for a future blog post on how to do a simple, yet beautiful effect on a picture.
Short one tonight guys. I have no clue what I wanna write about LOL. Until next time...KEEP SMILING!
