Hi everyone, Jill Daniels here. I live in Hamilton, NY home of Colgate University. I am currently a wife and stay-at-home mama of three (Hayden a kindergartner and currently wishing Santa had brought him his two front teeth for Christmas, Cameron a 4 year old with some killer dance moves, and Bailey my baby girl who is seconds away from running away with Cirque du Soleil. Oh, and I'm a part-time waitress at Rusch's Bar and Grill in the booming metropolis of downtown Hamilton.
The last experience that I recall involving Statistics was the year 2000 which was the LAST math class I took as an undergrad student. Also upon recalling my grade in that class I would have to state: Statistics = Fear. I am currently holding down a 4.0 GPA (first time I my life!) and it is my fear that statistics will be the demise of that grade point average.
I would have to say my biggest questions or concerns about this course are; (1) do I currently know enough “statistics” to be able to do what will be required of us in this class; it has been a long time since 2000. And (2) Will I be able to juggle my life, job and school work while maintaining my academic goals.
The slogan that best describes me at this phase in my life = “Sometimes you feel like a nut; Sometimes you don’t”. Granted, I know this is asking you to choose between Almond Joy and Mounds chocolate bars (personally I would just take both), but for me it is a direct reflection of where my brain is at. For those of you who have brought children into this world, hopefully you can sympathize with me in that there is truly an internal connection between the placenta and the mother’s brain cells. When the placenta is delivered so is a portion of the mother’s brain. For me it was a triple whammy! I lost 1/3 of my brain is just less than 3 years! Sometimes I feel as if my brain walked out on me and sometimes I don’t, I swear I didn’t used to be this scatterbrained!
