I am at the end of my second semester of college but the first set of classes working towards my degree. 20 years out of highschool, I needed a couple of prep courses first. The first semester was kind of easy and I was excited to be on the right path. Little did I know what that path would be. The second semester hit a little harder, most of my days are spent studying or working on assignments. I love it! I love learning new things, even if it means correcting what I thought I knew. I am among the oldest in my classes but that doesn't stop me from feeling like a college kid. I put my all into my classes. My boyfriend would say I put too much into it but I don't think so.
This semester has been a real eye opening experience for me. My Freshman comp 1 required 3 major essays. I had to retake my prep algebra course because I failed the first attempt online. American Government is something...well I will keep my views on the government to myself so its just been another course I have to tread lightly on. And my business course is my favorite. That is what I am going to school for.
This coming up week is final exams. I should be studying. But last Friday I received an email that I never expected. It was an invisition to join the Phi Theta Kappa Honor Society. Me, an honor student? I can not believe it. And a couple of days before that I received an email to tryout for Cheerleading. Do these people have me confused with someone else? I am 44 years old.
So I responded to the PTK and joined the Honor Society.
