I'm done with Grad School - I finished up my last class this past Thursday.
When I started school, I wanted to finish, but I wasn't sure I could do it. I am not the type of person that just willingly does homework. I always enjoyed the learning process but homework - ugh...
Fortunately, most of the courses I took utilized my work experience, so they came easy to me. This semester was the toughest by far, research methods was torture with a 5 page paper due each week and a 20 page paper due at the end of the semester.
Directed Readings was an independent study - not to hard, but actually doing the reading, writing a summary on each of 6 books, then a final paper was not something I was looking forward to.
I got the Research class done and took an Incomplete in Readings. My wonderful prof for readings gave me two months to finish it all up - I did and now I get the diploma :)
In the meantime, I walked at graduation and I have never felt more proud. I bought a class ring and my wonderful husband, along with my mom, threw a surprise party for me.
I must say, I really never thought I would see the day I would have done this. I was so scared that I would fail a class and have to go back - that fear has subsided - yeah...
I know this was a boring post - more exciting stuff to come later :)
