I'm on my way to getting my Master's degree. I'm enrolled and have the books on order. This is so cool. I'm doing it mostly on-line and have the option to test out many of my courses. This is something I'm doing for myself. Now that I've completed one goal (weight loss) time to work on something else that will also improve my life, or at least swell my head with endless knowledge!

I find lots of comfort in books. Methodical, non-judgemental, and no matter what, extra schooling never hurts! Jobs, boyfriends, friends, money and situations may come and go, but having an education always benefits!

Wow your masters! I'm so impressed. You are so right, everything else can be taken from you, but an education is yours to keep forever.

Way to go!

Mr AOR

I'm very proud of you! I think this is a great follow-up to your first success - the weight loss. I've thought about doing the online thing, too.

Where are you doing the classes through and what kinda courses are you takin'?

What Sawyer would call me on LOST: ladybug

"People will argue with you that getting what you want in life isn’t something you can learn, if you’re destined to be one of the worlds winners as opposed to one of its perpetual whiners, its because you have been born with the right talents and temperament and have a big dose of self-esteem, ambition, and good judgment." Kate White

I'm going through the Excelsior College RN-MSN program. I'm a much beter self-study learner. I never did have much patience to sit in a cold classroom with 30-200 other people. I'm shooting to complete in 3-4 years.
