I'm not as smart as I think I am...........

Friday, February 18, 2011: A conversation (per e-mail) with my friend Jessica regarding a computer class that I'm taking on line..........she wanted to know how it was going after my first on-line class............


 Jessica,  My Class?......It's soooooo NOT what I thought it was going to be.  First of all, apparently I was supposed to have taken another computer web-class prior to THIS ONE, so I'm a little lost  (actually…..A LOT LOST…..I haven't a clue what they're even talking about!) .....(......and I'm too much of a 'chicken-shit' to say anything.....because I don't want them to think I'm an idiot..........HEY......these people don't read my blog......so they don't know what an idiot I AM, YET!...)........so I'm basically 'winging it'.   I've got lessons on every Wednesday and Friday and I have 2 weeks to do each of them.  They include quizzes, assignments and lessons.    Nothing is graded.   The only thing that is graded is your final exam at the end of the session sometime in March. (…….hopefully there is a God!) 

Lesson 1 - Chapter 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5 talk about the World Wide Web (WWW) history and the development of design standards and interactivity and mobile content and communication vehicles and webpage statement of purposes and organizational balancing for form and function .....etc….etc….etc  ………(...are you getting any of this?...)………..I'm sure as SH*T not! .............WTFreak!?!       I feel like I’m in school again………I DON'T KNOW anything about this crap…(.....I don't even actually remember signing up to take this class...)....…(...could I have been drunk.....? ...)  …I though I was going to be taking a class about designing pretty little websites and web pages with pretty little fonts and pictures and all the fun 'girly' stuff that comes with designing and making thing pretty……(......can't you see the little butterflies and flying unicorns dancing around my head right now as I'm smiling, sitting in front of my computer screen........ in my own little world....as I'm designing my pretty little web pages.........)………………

…. I SO DON'T want to take this class anymore...........what the FREAK was I even thinking?...............................(.....yeah....pretty sure I must have been drunk)..................hellllooooo………… ………….

 I considered quitting......... (.....only 1/2 hour into my first lesson....)...... (.........yeah, I'm pathetic like that.....) .... BUT it IS only the FIRST DAY............and Hairyman gave me a
'pep-talk' ....so I decided I'm going to tuff it out and try to learn something. (…………….wish me luck……………..on the 'learning something' part………because learning doesn't come easy for a girl like me…..........since I already think I KNOW everything and all........)


I DID spend the time and read my first chapters last night and took the quiz (it took me 3 attempts by the way), but I got a 100 % on it ............so I guess I've already learned something, right?   (Yes, there is a God!)    SO  I’m already impressing myself!   HA!    (....not that it takes a lot to impress me....)   I didn’t do the assignments yet, cause I’m still really confused and and I don't understand them (...........yeah...basically I'm still completely LOST!....)................. but give me time…………it’s only been one day…………..(....hey, don’t get on my shit..........you can't expect too much out of me all at once!.....)    ........(Do you even KNOW me, people?).......

NOTE: 100 % on my first test?!  (Have I told you how awesome I am?)       I’ll keep you posted on the class!   
 OH, and I can't wait to start up OUR new business venture …….'The Web according to Jenny'………….remember……………………wasn’t that what it was going to be?      We’ll be partners and you’ll be in charge   (I’m OK with YOU being in charge..... since you’re a lot smarter than me...and I'm basically lazy and don't really feel like doing anything anyway..............) ………but just so you know ........it will still be ‘All about me’! HA!
