I passed Elementary Algebra

The last week. Mr Boehm sat me down and said,you can not get out of elementary algebra with out learning how to factor a quadric equation.I had one week to go, my grades were down. I needed to ace the final,to pass.I hired a tutor and explained what his responsibilities where. We met all day before the final, at about 4 pm, I got it. I showed up at the final exam cool.calm.and collected. I had my lucky #2 pencils, and my old fashion simply calculator. I was rested. My crib notes prepared. I am completely backed in to a corner,with my points, I had to ace the final exam, in order to pass the course. The Teacher Professor Boehm,handed me my paper first, and there it was the answers shooting out of the paper at me.I completed the exam and handed it in and Mr Boehm wished me a merry Christmas. So, I Had to wait for the final posting of the grade. This afternoon, I called and talked to the Professor.
He awarded me a " C " for the over all class. and he looks forward to teaching me Intermediate algebra, next semester. Thank You Mr Boehm, and thank you to everyone that helped me with homework and encouraged me.I am a University Level Elementary Algebra course completer.

one more class left, next Wednesday,algebra finals


The review class was today and another quiz. I have strategically place my self in a potion that I have to ace the final exam, in order to Pass. Ha Ha I got em right where I want them. My head says: "run for your live ; your a failure". The other me says:'hold her steady"" you've been in tough positions before". I went around the class and helped the other students with their quiz. I was the last student out the door. I met early with the instructor( I was the first student in the building) and he helped explained some stuff for me. All the other students were struggling with the quiz, quiz=10 points,very important points.
Is it time to run? hide? listen to those people(teacher) that beat me growing up. My report card from first grade to eight grade was all d's and F's with comments, Timmy would do better if he stopped being the class clown; (Timmy would do well if you stopped projecting your miserable life on me and stop hitting me, it hurt). I never went to kindergarten. I started school in first grade. Adults suck. So, where do I go from here. I didn't have a dream to go to the University,but I am here at Maryville University St. Louis, Missouri. The goal was to avoid War,survive drug abuse,survive NYC, fall in love, have children,successful at my profession,live long enough to hold my Granddaughter (Lillian Jade Harper), due 12/14/2010, Blessed are those that heal the sick and injured.So,what do I do? What would you do? I have been in this position before. I keep swinging till the fight is over, It's not over ,yet.I have a trick up my sleeve.If you want trouble back me into the corner. If you want me to succeed tell me I can't do it.
