Literally today, I got called into the guidance office. Guess what? Apparently my math teacher was concerned about me failing Calc 1.

That sweet woman talked to my counsler and asked if maybe I can take Precalc instead of Calculus because she was worried I might fail and have to reinburse the school. Precal and Calc 1 both took place this semester, Calc 1 is first block and Precalc is fourth block. I needed a PE credit this year, and the only PE class in my schdeule was during my fourth block. I liked my culinary class this term too.

I asked my counselor if I technically needed another math credit, to which she said no. I was all good in the math department. I just said I'll keep my fourth block the way it is, and just have me dropped from my Calc 1.

This of course raised the question of what will replace my first block. She described a couple of classes or being a tecaher's assistant, but ulitmately I just asked if there was a class she could just plug me into. And so here I am, taking three social studies classes and a culinary class. A perfect schedule.

I really feel like someone is looking out for me, cuz there is no way I've literally prayed to be dropped from Calc 1 and be put into a social studies class and it actually happened. There is no way my dreams have been answered. I feel great.

Today is a good day.
