feeling optimistic

i'm having a good day today. i think it's because my house is clean. it puts me in a better frame of mind.

i'm halfway through my mutivariate cramming and it's going pretty well. i might be able to ace this exam if i can remember everything.

about 5 more people dropped out of my linear algebra class. we're now down to 10 from the original 25+. the learning center tutor is willing to give me the first 30 minutes of his slotted time (free) if i can arrange for my dad to pick up dorafan#1 from school on mondays. and if that doesn't work, he'll come in an hour earlier and tutor me for $30/hr which i'm seriously willing to pay once a week at this point. it's a good deal considering he sits in on every one of my lectures so he will teach me exactly what i need to know.

so yeah i'm feeling good. still slightly defeated, but how can i get too depressed knowing i can see my bedroom floor for the first time in months?

and more on the wonderful cleaning lady, she's so cute, like she's personally invested in the cleanliness and organization of my apartment. she told me next time she's going to help sort through all my clothes and organize my closet, something my husband has been bothering me to do for five years! and it was totally her own idea. and another great thing, she asked me if she should move on when it was taking too long to clean all the burnt stuff off the stove because "it wastes time." now i've heard plenty of people complain about cleaning ladies taking all the time in the world since they're getting paid by the hour, but this is unheard of. she was worried about wasting time! she's so awesome! i'm gushing, i'm in love!

i'm so excited for next week. i already have a list of things to be done. she inspires me to want to be more organize and lord help me, i really need it!
