A Class for Outlook?
My mouth is slowly healing. I think by Thursday I should be pretty good. Too bad Thursday is when I get a root canal. So after one side heals the other side is going to start hurting. Thankfully though after Thursday it should be quite a while before I have to go back. Which will be really nice. 
So, I just realized that I have homework in every subject right now. Thankfully only 2 subjects are due Wednesday. O and I took the final for Microsoft Outlook and passed the class. I didn’t want to have to deal with that. It’s a stupid class in my opinion. I didn’t make anywhere near as good of a grade as I would have if I had taken the class, but I’m fine with what I got.
Very short blog post…but oh well. Longer one next time.

When I was in college, I remember taking quite a few classes that were SO STUPID. Like, I had to take one class that was probably pretty similar- it was called “using microsoft office” or something like that. Didn’t learn much from that!
I also remember, when I switched my degree to education, having to take another dumb math class. When I was a freshman (before I had declared a major), I took “College Algebra” just to get the math credit out of the way. Now college algebra is not exactly a difficult math class, though I suppose it does take a little bit of intelligence. There was another math class which would also qualify for the math credit, which I think was called “How To Balance Your Checkbook For Stupid Kids”. When I switched my major to education two years later, I was told that I was required to take “How To Balance Your Checkbook For Stupid Kids”. Though they didn’t require the “College Algebra” class, I think they assumed that the majority of education majors are Stupid Kids. Unfortunately after spending a couple of years in class with those kids, I’m afraid they were largely correct!
(oh- and I tested out of “How To Balance Your Checkbook For Stupid Kids”. I took a test proving that I already knew everything they were teaching in that class… and passed with flying colors…)

Hrm… I think you should research root canals before you get it done… doctors ALWAYS tells you that ‘it’s ok” but that’s what they’re programmed to say, and that’s how they make money on ya. Leaving a dead tooth (that’s what a root canal does) in your body is not good, and over time could leak toxins and bacteria into your blood stream. I’m against it but it’s your choice in the end ^_^
A class for outlook is always good, it educates you!! It does a lot for your resume later on depending on what field you get into. Hope you will heal well!! ^-^

Microsoft Office is total bullshit, IMO.
Root canals - OUCH. Good luck.

Root canal too? Boy oh boy, you’re just full of luck right now, haha. Pointless classes are flowing everywhere.. I have a gen-ed this semester, so I have to choose the class I want to take, they give me a bunch of options.. Of course I chose Transportation History and It’s Effects on the North American culture. WFT? Random. Hahaha.
At least I didn’t take food and wine..

I see what you mean now by going to the dentist quite a bit. Hope your mouth heals soon! I’ve never had a root canal done before, but have heard that it isn’t pleasant.
