My cool stats class!!

In my stats 1040 class we are to the probability section and so we were talking about the chances of getting a six on a six sided dice. And anyways our teacher decided that since dices and flipping coins is so common that we should do something different. So we had to fill out these papers and along with that we tossed Hershey Kisses to see how often they land flat up or on their side. And we had to tos these kisses 100 times, also we had to toss them single 100 times and then two at a time 100 times. The two at a time was basically to see how often they both landed straight up or on their sides at the same time. It was quite entertaining, and I think that's it is quite hilarious that they actually have a college course that discusses stuff like that. And people also major in stuff like that too...!! It was quite fun though and yeah we also go to learn the formula's on how to determine what the chance is that you'll draw a certain card in a card game...fun, fun!!

Life is crazy!!

This fine summer I decided to take this Stats 1040 class, which was an attempt to make the class easier. The class isn't really hard, but I also work alot which makes for no time to do anything at all. And also along the lines of work I seem to always be working overtime now, which is due to the fact that I'm on the supervisors good list since I actually do a good job. So pretty much every single night I find myself doing Stats homework, but then it's hard because people want me to go and do stuff with them. I've pretty much decided that no matter what you do life will always be hard, so it's not really worth it to try and get out of it, because that never works. But other then that I sleep and eat, good plan huh? Or I'd be dead right now, which would be really sad right??

Just a thought!!

I had to go and get finger prints at the Cache County Police Station last weekend, and I don't think that I've ever even been in a police station before. So we drove up and there was this extremely odd mound looking building (with no windows) connected to the police station and there was this fence all around it. So for awhile I was trying to figure out what this building was, and after a few minutes I suddenly realized that it was the Cache County Prison.
I suddenly realized that there are people who stay in those places for years and year and years. And they don't go anywhere, they just sit in those mound looking buildings and that's it. And so it just made me happy that I've never done anything that serious that I would have to be at a place like that for 20 years. It was really sad to me that this type of institution even has to exist...but I guess that is how the world is.
Anyways, this little experience made me grateful that I can do whatever I want, whenever I want and I don't have to be forced to stay somewhere like that forever and ever. The only thing I'm ever forced to do is homework, and I don't even have to do that if I don't want to.

Good things happen!!

I had a rather interesting experience the other day. So I've been rather poor these days because of college expenses and such. And last sathurday I suddenly realized that it was fast sunday the next day and that I was supposed to pay fast offerings...but I didn't really have enough to pay fast offereings. So anyways, I ended up doing it anyways and well I didn't really know what I was going to do about money and what not. Then on monday I remembered that I needed to buy a Stats book for my class that starts next monday. So I went to the book store and found out that the book was eighty plus dollars...and then I really freaked because I really needed to get the book. Well it ended up that later that night I walked into my apartment and sitting on my table was a letter from Coldwell Banker, and I suddenly realized that I would now be paying for carpet cleaning too. (yikes...looking bad) Then I opened the letter and guess what? there was a eighty plus dollar check and no carpet cleaning fees. And then I ended up finding a really cheap stats book on-line. Amazing huh? How when you pay tithing and such things seem to always work out. Bytheway I get a big check in a few days, so don't worry to much about me...I'll be quite fine.
