As I mentioned in my last post, I am
up to two classes again. In one accounting class I am required to used
QuickBooks online. The other feels like
a refresher course - though I think I'd get more out of it if I had the same
instructor that I had for 101 and 102.
My payroll instructor wasn't exactly
monotone, but his voice did seem unenthusiastic for the most part - as though
he'd rather be sitting in a dentist chair getting his teeth drilled than having
to teach a class. One instructor that I
have is at the other extreme - trying to compensate for the less-than-exciting
material by being "overly" enthusiastic. I almost feels like I am taking a class taught
by my brother-in-law.
The instructor I like listening to the most is the one I have for
QuickBooks. He's not boring. He's not overly enthusiastic (like it's
forced) When I am listening to his lecture, it feels like we are one on one and
he is showing me what icons to click on and is great as explaining why. I think his voice is easy to follow. I like his class better of the two.
Before the class even started, I had received
an email from my dean to set up an
account in QuickBooks. In the event that
my information was put on a permanent junk-mail file, I chose to open the
account on hotmail - which I keep open to use as a unwanted email account. Unfortunately, when I had created the final
step I used my hotmail user name but with a yahoo attachment - thus making my
user name at hotmail invalid.
The problem I had been created by me,
and couldn't seem to be corrected - at least not in the time frame I was
looking for. Much of the communication
from their end was being sent to a non-existing account - at least for me. Thus I created a brand new account from my
yahoo but with a different user name. I
didn't figure I'd be able to do anything with that class until sometime today. Boy, was I ever surprised to have my account
activated the following day.
And so I worked on that. But I seemed to be missing some steps or
couldn't take screenshots with the appropriate information as it was not being
displayed. It took me three days to
complete my assignment (good thing I was able to start it earlier than I had
believed)
Meanwhile I seemed to be neglecting my
other class. I managed to struggle
through that and turned in both assignments yesterday. I probably should have saved my assessments
for today, but decided to do them yesterday.
Unfortunately I didn't do well at either one. Let's hope I receive a better grade on the
assignments. That has actually been the
case thus far.
Meanwhile I've been neglecting my blog
- not to mention other blogs I've been reading.
Jenna was home from school yesterday and I had attempted to spend
quality time with her so she didn't feel neglected. I skimmed over my primary lesson but will
need to go over it again. In addition
I've been attempting to clean the house - or tidy it up a bit.
After over three months of not having full
time missionaries in our ward, they have returned and so we will be feeding
them tonight. I wonder if they have A Voice from the Dust in their collection.
It was suggested to show to my primary class about the three
witnesses. I suppose I can ask.
