Day 1118 - Day 023
On January 7th 2011 I blogged my University progress. At the time I was 52% through my education and had a 4.0 GPA… now I am 72% through and still have my 4.0. THAT is worth celebrating on its own…
This last course was a difficult challenge- not the course work, but getting on the same page with the facilitator in only 5 weeks. It’s nice to have a break for the holidays, but in the middle of a class it throws everything off.
There is good news on the horizon: I am currently on a 5 week break because I brought so many course credits into the program. I am off until the middle of February. I only have 6 courses to take this year, and when I complete the last one I will then have the entire month of December and part of January 2013 off! That means a Christmas break will really feel like a Christmas break. Then in 2013 I have 5 courses and then I graduate… score.
Graduating will be a lifetime dream… number 31 on my list. But it does not end there, I will continue with my Master’s Degree which is actually dream number 32 on my list. This instructor had run-ins with everyone in the class. Literally, I think the entire class complained about her, but she parted with very kind words to me.
As frustrating as the class was, I respected the teacher because of her resume and abilities in her field. She told me she could see why the company was fast tracking my education, and she really wanted to see me go after my Masters. She knew I could more than handle it. What a great way to end a course and look ahead to the future!
