My first day of school
So I returned to yet another attempt at finishing school. Yeppers...today was my first day of class. I only have about 3 more semesters left then I will finally be done. It has only taken me 16 years. In class today the professor decided she wanted everyone to go around the room and introduce themselves. Okay fine...i'll introduce myself....then she puts up a power point of a list of questions everyone is required to answer after introducing themselves. Why are you taking a maymester, what do you want to do when you graduate, family life...yada yada yada..... All this is all good excpet for the fact that I HATE talking in front of people I do not know. This stems a problem. Maybe she will start on the other side of the room, in the front row and will not manage to get to me because these 18 year olds out of high school recently will be so consumed with talking about themselves taht we will run out of time. UMMMM plan did not work...I was first. Sitting in the back of the room is not advisable when you have such a bubbly 20 year old profe
ssor who thinks it will be cute to pick on you. My face turned 80 shades of red and I as calmly as I could began the quest. When I got to the family part and mentioned taht I have children the room turned to me. Then when I preceded to tell them the ages of my children (14 and 11) jaws fell. I'm not quite sure how to take the jaws falling. I am going to chalk it up to I am so extremely young for my 33 years...haha...yep that's what i'm telling myself. Anyhoo...the rest of the kids (seriously kids) went on to talk about their club scenes and they are head starting their careers at the ripe old age of 12...I FELT SO ANCIENT!!!! I keep asking myself what I am doing here. My oldest will be in college in 4 years. This is so backwards. This is my last go. It will be victory over education once and for all. Unless my precious little Akai doesnt let me study. It used to be babies that held my attention...now I have puppies.
