So this will probably been the last entry before I go on my mini vacation with my best friend. She is flying in from Maryland on Saturday and we are driving straight to Key West from the airport. A grueling drive, but good times ahead :)
The meeting with my math tutor this afternoon went well by the way. He was very attentive, very helpful, he spoke slowly and clearly and wasn't bothered by repeating certain things at times. I think we have ourselves a keeper. One of the pointers he gave me was that I shouldn't really focus on taking too many notes during class or I wont be able to really pay attention to what the prof is saying. Its true though, the minute I start writing, I dont really hear what the prof is talking about. I zone out.
To remedy this, (thankfully I"m able to take advantage of the Disability Resource Center), amongst other things, I can utilize a note-taker if I need one. For this class, I'm pretty sure I will need one. but all that paper work I would turn in during the beginning of the week. The other accommodations that I am allowed to take advantage of are "unlimited" time on tests as well as the use of a private room. I quote unlimited time because obviously I cant sit there and take the test forever, but I'm certainly allowed to sit there until the center closes, - five hours later. That's happened before. I remember taking six hours to finish my physics test. :(
I'm guessing that I wont hear from this lady regarding the shadowing anytime tomorrow. Fridays are always a slim chance to get anything done. I'll prob email her and politely ask her what on Earth is taking so long.
Other than that, no new news! I'm planning on going to the lab early tomorrow so I have to get my rest! Bedtime for me.
