i went back to truman to deal with placement exam waivers and takings (have college english comp credit; have no math credit == sadly, must take the math exam) and register for class. i shocked the hell out of myself by remembering enough weird and useless algebra junk to actually test into for-credit math courses (!!), and then suffered through truman’s incredibly archaic registration process (it involves lots of paper and no fewer than FOUR waitings-in-line — yuk — including “payment due at time of registration,” which sucks). but! i am now officially registered for the class i have been referring to as Auto Shop 101 (which is really Automotive Technology 101). i’m really excited. plus i can’t wait until i get to take fuel systems class and transmission class. transmission class is going to be really cool. gear ratios, baby!

I ARE A GREASE MONKEY!
