Three new things

Today's blog asks about three new things I learned this week. One thing I learned is that getting started, is probably the hardest part of the year in school, your trying to get organized, getting a routine started, and your not used to working so much. For students and teachers this goes for, students because they are used to not working all summer, and teachers work hard to get all the things organized for the students, but it's not the same during the summer.

Another thing I learned is that if you don't have your textbook for an online math class that uses that text book EVERY DAY, you're going to fall behind, and it's going to be very difficult to follow along with what shes saying, falling further and further behind. Same thing goes for our graphic calculators, this weekends homework is practicing our skills with the graphic calculator, and Tuesday is a review, we're only getting the textbooks Monday, which gives us one day to "study" everything properly.

Also I guess another thing is that you should probably check with the company if you're ordering something from the same city and it hasn't arrived in a week, but at least we're actually getting them on Monday. I learned that trying to acquire proper, readable scanned pages online and have them printed properly, is a very hard task, and takes up a lot of time. It also increases the amount of time you spend on a subject by at least 50%. The first while in school is always the hardest I find.
