More than a year ago, I swore, scoffed, and vehemently insisted that I would never do what I’ve signed myself up to do, that is, to return to school to get a second degree. And yet here I am registered for 16 credits this Fall. I’ve also signed a lease on a little 2-bedroom house for the academic year, I have a faculty advisor, and have made wild claims to two other professors, claiming I can handle their classes without my pre-requisites in place.
It’ll be time soon enough to put my money where my mouth is – both literally and figuratively.
But until that time, my goals for this summer are simple:
1. take care of myself
2. take care of myself
3. try not to contract plague, tularemia, hantavirus (i.e. take care of myself)
