Doesn't most of life enter through the window of irrelevance?

Woo Hoo! I'm FINALLY Done!
Today I forced myself to finally finish my very, very boring Microsoft Office class through Univeral Class. I'm SO glad I'm done. It took me 6 months, but then again, the class had 48 lessons. Then throw in recovering from Meagan's wedding, Thanksgiving, Christmas and all the rest.
I got a 98% on the class, which is pretty amazing considering I didn't learn nearly as much from the class as I had hoped. Also, most of the quizzes had trick questions, which I can't stand. I'll never take another class from that instructor. On the up side, I did really like the PowerPoint part of the class. That's probably why I finished that part of the class in two weeks, rather than two months.
In other news, yesterday Cameron and I went to Mom and Dad's got our missionary haircuts. Really, only Cameron got a missionary haircut. I think for sister missionaries the guidelines are much more lax. Thanks for the haircuts, Dad! And thanks Mom and Dad for the donation to Cameron's Missionary Fund and everything else you do for us.
It was nice to visit with Mom, Dad, Sheri and Spike. We didn't see David, as is usual (sadly).
Tuesday I went to SLCC and took the Accuplacer test and sat through Orientation. The Accuplacer is supposed to take 1 1/2 - 2 hours, it took me 2 1/4 hours. But I did pretty well. I placed into English 2010 and Math 1050. Not that I have to take either of them. Then I got my SLCC acceptance letter in the mail the next day that pretty much told me they had my transcripts and I didn't have to take the Accuplacer after all. I forgot I sent them my transcripts about 5 years ago. I didn't think they'd still have them!
