Hello my dear readers! It has been awhile since we last chatted...or interacted in any way. I realize I have the habit retention of a nine year old sometimes and never pay attention to this poor blog, and for that I apologize. But, so many things have happened since January!
Of course a lot has happened...it's been like what? Five months? Ok, maybe only four, but still.....
The school semester has ended, and the library is once again completely empty. Oh, don't worry, it will pick up again once summer session starts. I am happy to say that I am finally entering my Senior year of college! Exciting stuff right there....
And it only took 13 years to get here!
Oh, don't get me wrong, I haven't been going to college for thirteen years. I took classes here and there without really committing myself to finish. This time I started in 2010 and changed my major last year, so to actually hit Senior status is epic. I will be graduating with a Bachelor's degree in English.
WHAT are you going to do with a degree in English? Or, What ARE you going to do? Or even. What are you going to DO as an English major??? As a phenomenal professor once said, I am going to critically explore the human experience with my English degree. I realize it doesn't pay well, believe me.
I don't recall if I have mentioned my love of libraries, or books, or words, or language. If I haven't, I should have long ago! Yeah, I am going into Library Science.
OH! I also have signed up for my very first 5k run! I have nineteen weeks to train...and boy am I out of shape. But, I am determined to do this and get myself where I need to be physically. It is amazing how extra weight in my middle age can slow me down. I am sick and tired of my joints hurting and being..well, tired, all the time.
I know I was going somewhere....This post jumps around more than a flea with an attention disorder.
I really didn't come here to just talk about me, but I want to be an encouragement to all of you. No matter your age, your fitness level, or your status in life, you can do whatever you put your mind to!
It is easy to quit when things get hard, but more rewarding to follow through.
(I never got around to that clock, but I still would love to!)
Don't give up my friends, there is so much world out there! We can only see, not experience, from behind the computer screen.
