Hmmmmm.........it's very dark in here.
Wait.
Is that a tiny little speck of light that I see at the end of this really looooooooooooooooong tunnel that I have been in for the last 4 1/2 years???
Yep. It sure is.
I have been going to college for my Business Management degree for so long that I can hardly remember a time when I WASN'T going to school on top of working on top of having a family on top of everything else that life brings on a daily basis.
I think I must be nuts to be doing this at this point in my life, but I just couldn't see myself getting anywhere without that all-important piece of paper in my hand to prove whatever it is that a degree proves to people.
I think it proves that I am a raging IDIOT for taking on so much at once.........or the fact that I can start a project and still be doing it 4 1/2 years later, so I must have persistence........or that I must be really good at multi-tasking. Or something.
So, at the beginning of it all I had like 700 classes I had to take (actually, it was closer to 40 but it has FELT like 700). I always thought, "Man will it be cool when I get into the single digits".
Well........not including the class that I am currently taking which is over in 4 short weeks I officially have 9 classes left.
I have made it into the single digits.
Yes, I am happy about that, it is for sure a great milestone in my schooling........but these last 9 classes will take a year and a half to complete. So I am not exactly THERE yet......but I can see the end.
And thank goodness because I was beginning to get that itch......you know......the one where money and a career really don't matter and I could learn to be happy working at the Burger King.
Yep..................thank goodness for that little tiny light. I don't think I would look good in a paper hat.

popping in to say HI!!!!!!
Good for you doing all of that with school......I'm sure you will breath a sign of relief when its over.
VERY VERY happy for you. I've told you many times that I don't think I could do what you're doing. You should feel very proud... and we'll all be cheering you on when you count down the remaining 9... not matter how long it takes. YAY YOU!
Wow! I am so impressed with you! I dont know how you have two kids, a job, husband, a home and manage to balance going to school. It really is impressive. Those last classes will fly by, you know how fast a year goes!
