It would intrigue people to stop when they saw the signs in the stations. Now, isn't that a hoot. (Before the railways the name was only the first 20 letters.)

For all of my long time friends and for the new ones as well... I am a proclaimed people observer. This world and the people in it amaze me and I love to learn why people and places are what they are. I have been doing a lot of soul searching this past year, as far as where I want to go with school. I have gone back and forth and sideways...
Sociology is where I thought I would go first. Then it was off to nursing (midwife, still a possibility, just a lay midwife). Then there was Elementary Ed., hmmm, not a good choice for me right now. I have fallen in love with Geography again, So, am I any closer to making a decision? You bet, Secondary Ed. Social Sciences with a minor in Geography. There you have it!! I only need 3 more classes to receive my AS in Geography and 2 more years for my seconday Ed. teaching. I am on the top of the Mountain looking at my future... WWWWooooohhhhoooo!!! I have never been more sure of what to do and oh am I excited.
Who would have thunk taking one class could do it for, but this class has. Truth be told, I should always go with my gut instinct and go with my first choice, which was Secondary Ed. Social Sciences (that is what I declared my major to be when I started to school.). Looking at it though, I am glad I have done my exploring now and have made my decision.
A P.S. to this... Culture Diversity Class, well after this semester, let's just say, I wont be the same. :) I know that is what college is suppose to do for you, change you, make you more aware, and boy had it done that! (Like you all needed to know that...) :)

Yea! Now we know what you will do with all that education! Good for you, I know it is a relief to know exactly where you are going. I know also, that it will take a lot of hard work on your part to get there, having done the same thing when I was young with 3 kids. Is it worth it? You bet!
p.s. how is the graphic pen? Any time to fool with it?
The graphic pen was played with a bit last night. I have a new setup and have to load some programs that I had on my laptop. My husband is a flat screen fanatic and has recently purchased a 32 inch flat screen monitor for our home computer. Can you say... overkill. :) Actually, I love it and it is so awesome for graphic or working with photos. So maybe this weekend I will have something to share. :)
School, It is so worth it and I just found out about an opportunity to be an office assistant at the school and get paid for answering phones while studying. ;) Say a pray and cross those fingers. :) Thank you for thinking of me and missing our posts, Hannah will be excited to here that when she gets home today.
