Mid-Term

Halfway through my first term and I am getting A's in both my classes. It feels GREAT!

I was so worried about being successful in school and it's been fairly easy so far. I know it will only get more difficult as I go along, but I'm really looking forward to the challenge.

One thing that has really contributed to my success in school so far is the support of all my family and friends. One friend in particular has been such a help, I couldn't do this without him.

Thank you, B, for everything. Your help with my math and English questions, your support and encouragement, mean the world to me. I won't let you down!

A couple weeks ago, I met with an advisor and I have declared a major. When I decided to go back to school, I didn't have any clear direction, other than wanting to get a basic 2 year degree, but once I was there and started thinking about it, I want a more specialized degree that will help me make more money and have the life I want.

So, I have decided to get an accounting degree. It goes right along with the work I've been doing for the last 6 years, which gives me an advantage, since I have some experience in that field.

I know it won't be easy, but with that degree, I'll have so many options when I'm done with school, I think it's the way to go.

If someone would have told me a year ago, that as of Winter 2012, I'd be a straight A college student going for an accounting degree, I would have laughed my ass off! Now that I'n here though and doing it, I feel like I'm right where I'm supposed to be, to do anything else, that would be the joke.
