Graduate School Adventure Begins

After waiting til the end of January for UNM transcripts, I applied for Wayland Baptist Albuquerque and have registered for classes. I have not been officially accepted but they allow you to register while you wait so you can get into the classes you need. Class begins on February 21st so I have one more week before the fun begins. I cannot wait to see what Wayland will bring and look forward to having the routine of school for myself again.

Many people have asked me why I am going to graduate school...well the main reason is because I want to. Yes, it's more time and money spent on education, but in the long run it will be well worth it. I like school and enjoy learning new things. The extra experience and education will help me get a teaching job, and increase my abilities to teach my students in ways that will benefit their education and outlook on school. I am grateful to my family and friends for their support and encouragement in my education endeavors. Let the new education adventure begin!

Lately I have been thinking a lot about how Pop-Pop was always interested in what I was doing and my plans for my teaching career. I know he looks down and sees me working hard and continuing to pursue my dreams. Someday, maybe I will even be a college professor like he was. One never knows where the road will lead. My grandparents, parents and sister have played such a huge role in my education and the dreams that I have chosen to pursue...thank you.

God is good.
