Fall Break!

Woo hoo, I am on Fall break from community college!  My brain has been getting fried as of lately with tests, quizzes, and other assignments, so my brain is welcoming the break, lol.  Inspite of the craziness I have managed to make good grades on everything....except for my test in Payroll Accounting.  Words cannot describe the looks on the faces of my classmates as we took that test , one of my classmates even looked like she was about to cry , no one felt ready for this test.  Basically we had to figure the payroll for imaginary people with different types of work hours.  It was crazy because we had to really know the formulas for all of this, and that's a lot of stuff to remember.  As we guessed, none of us did very well on the test.  I decided right then and there that I was going to turn in the needed form to get some tutoring for this class.....no sense in risking any further bad grades.

Things continue to go well at Burger King, I am definitely thankful for that.  I came so close to quitting a few weeks ago, but for some reason God still has me here.  It has certainly turned cool at night though, I have had to wear my black sweatshirt under my Burger King uniform shirt......plus it helps to have a heater near the area where I work the drive-thru window.  But I'm not complaining, lol, all this cool weather means the grass is slowing down growing.  Soon, I will not need to bother with grass-cutting or weed-eating.   I don't exactly enjoy cutting grass, but it needs to be done since it is hard on my dad's health to do the work.  

I am currently counting down the days until my 18th birthday, woo hoo!  It is only a little over a month away and I can hardly wait.  Turning 18 means I will be old enough to vote in next year's election, be old enough for jury duty (if I am called up), plus get my regular full-fledged driver's license.  It feels strange, yet exciting, to be taking on more repsonsibilities, expecially when it comes to my civic duty of voting or serving on a jury.  I am mostly looking forward to getting to vote next year.  I have been keeping up with the debates among the Republican candidates, it will be interesting to see how that turns out.  Either way it will be an exciting time for me!
