Yes, it's true....I am done with school!! My class doesn't actually end until next Monday and since I've turned in my last assignment as of yesterday I'm calling it done! Here's what I learned over the past 3+ years, besides a bunch of information from my classes...if it's important to you find a way. It was important to me to get this degree and over the course of the past 3+ years I've gone through a divorce, two job changes (one to a new department and one to manager of my department), the death of my grandfather and the death of my mother. Any one of those could have derailed me and thanks to many of you and others that supported me, I persevered and can now say I have a bachelor's degree. WOW....I have a bachelor's degree!! I can't really even explain the feeling that I have right now other than I believe it is the most proud I've ever been of myself.
So....what to do with my time now? I've signed up to be a mentor for the University of Phoenix. I really want to help other people realize their educational dreams and support them through what may feel like overwhelming life changes. I've also set a goal of competing in the Danskin women's triathalon next August. Yes...I said it...a TRIATHALON! I've got a year to train and that's plenty of time. I've got the support of a bunch of people around me and I'm very excited. As we all know I'm not exactly in shape so it will be a challenge. And, it's a challenge I can make a success. Other than that...I have no idea how my time will fill up and I'm excited to see what happens.
Peace and love to you all. If you've got a dream...do what you need to do to fulfill that dream. YOU are worth it and your dreams are worth it!
