Back to School

Oooh, it's been many many weeks since I've posted....I think with the holidays I got put in a tailspin and haven't stopped! Well, I started this year off with a bang.~ I'd been feeling for the last couple months that I wanted to go back to school. I have always wanted to get my bachelors degree but since I have a 2 year degree from a private college I can't transfer to a university-my only option was University of Phoenix. Not that I am too good for that, but hello, it's like $20K for 2 years and the degrees they offer were not really anything that clicked with me. I love learning and with my sis Amber encouraging me, I enrolled in Community College for 9 credits this semester. I figure this would be something that really was just for my own personal "enrichment" if you will and that I would enjoy the journey and hopefully end up with a degree at the end. I didn't totally have to start over though (I had 15 credits from right after college that are still good) so at the end of summer, if all goes well, I will be a sophmore. Part of me wonders what I was thinking-I am soooo busy as it is, but it just felt like the right time. And, all my classes are online-that makes a big difference too. I'm enjoying it very much right now-I'm taking a Sociology class (Intro to Marriage and Family) and Anthropology. In March I will be done with the marriage class and will pick up Nevada History. I try not to think about the end result because that can be daunting and overwhelming, but again, I'm just trying to enjoy it as I work my way through it.
