CSET

I passed!

I passed Mathematics Subtest II: Geometry, Probability and Statistics! This is the 3 or 4th time I've taken this test. I have studied for it since the beginning of the year. I told God I'd take this whole year to study and take the 2 tests for Mathematics.

One down one to go!

My next test, I signed up for today, is November 1.

Pray for me to pass subtest I:Algebra and Number Theory.

Facebook

I now have a Facebook account!

Since MySpace is so last season I decided to open a Facebook account. Friends, a few, said I needed to have one and they also invited me to join. I added a few friends and "decorated" my page with pieces of flair. I even made a piece of flair!

Sorry to those I didn't ask to be my friend. I still like you.

So true for me

Dodging Cars

I almost got hit today! And I was walking across the cross walk! no joke

OK, here is the whole story..

I decided to walk to work this morning. (Two perks: I was saving gas and getting exercise, since I didn't set me alarm for swim this morning) I crossed at Normandale, instead of crossing at El Toro and Portola, thinking I'd have a better chance of NOT getting hit by crossing earlier in my whole walking experience. I push the cross button, wait, then see the green walk "person" come on so I look in all directions before my foot hits the pavement.
Now the cars turning left, into my direction, have to wait for me, or at least acknowledge that I am crossing, and slowly turn until I am clear out of their driving path. The first car doesn't see me til he is turning in front of me. "OK," I'm thinking, "close call". The second car, a truck driven by a young 20-something girl, doesn't even see me and I have to stop IN the middle of the crosswalk so she can keep driving and make her left turn! I thought, "Am I dead?! Why the heck didn't she see me?! Did anyone else see this or am I dreaming?"

People, the light stays on until the red stop hand stops flashing so you shouldn't be freaked out about not making the light and if you are in the middle of the intersection drivers will let you turn even if the red light comes on because you are in their way.

Bottom line was, they were not paying attention. No cell phones, that I saw, were involved. I'm alive.

Wedding

I did cry at the last part of Father of the Bride. When George Banks sits down in the pew and says he'll never see Anne when he comes home and "something inside of me started to hurt" then he squeezes his wife's hand...so sad....

Its fun to talk about weddings and the future.

I'm talking about with my girlfriends (who have significant others), coworkers and mom. Yes they are all in on it. They give ideas, what works, what was the worst they saw, and they love to ask when is the big day!

I'm not even engaged. But when I am EVERYONE will know.

Marriage is a great responsibility. Its exciting. Its also scary. Living with someone you think you know yet learning so much more....
I can't wait!
