yay statistics...

i'm a student again!

so, if i want to go to the Master of Social Work program at Azusa Pacific University next fall, i need to take a stats class in the very near/current future. *current future?? what is that??* anywho, i live right by East Los Angeles College.... yay statistics... in more ways than one.

i tried to enroll last month, but all of the classes were full... all 15 sections! i didn't realize stats was such a popular class. and this coming from someone with a degree in Political Science who works in the research field... whatever. i made a plan: i was going to go to every single evening class and try to get it. regardless of the time... i needed in!

*for the girls: i'm listening to ABBA*

so went to ELAC after work yesterday, and it occurred to me, "i've never driven myself to school, thus, i've never had to look for parking ." let me just say, looking for parking really sucks. i had to park like 2 blocks from the school, up a random hill. i don't mind the walk... but i'm not a huge fan of having to jaywalk across a super busy *note: they drive fast* street. plus, there's a ton of construction at ELAC. anywho, i made it to the campus alive. i'm just kinda worried about parking far when it gets darker in the next few months.

okay, now i have to look for the class. i find the class. then, i have to sit around and pray that the teacher lets me in. the teacher is nice and funny. he kinda remind me of my Blueprint LSAT instructors, except less vulgar. all he talks about is how America is a great country *true*, and how (the) Bush(s) ruined the country *i remain silent*, and how everyone calls him a terrorist *he's Persian*. it's kinda funny some times... but other times in can be inappropriate.

anywho, being the master of statistics that he is, he had to devise a mathematical plan on how to pick 15 people out of 35 to let into his class. he made some sort of Excel Sheet calculation... and i ended up as #2 on the list of adds... yay!!! i'm way happy because i was able to get into the first class i sat in on!

go tuesday/thursday math 227 from 5:35pm-7:20. the last night class included a hot guy that would walk me to his car and then take me home... i'm pretty sure that will not happen this time. but it's okay... i like my hot man.

oh, and i don't have to buy the book!

*besos*
