no deep thoughts today :-), just ramblin'

it's almost time...time to hit the books, read the syllabi/syllabuses (sp?), write the papers, communicate with profs & new colleagues, read, read, read, take tests, watch the lectures, etc. ...wow!

it's almost time to be a student, again. me? a student? a bit overwhelming to think about but Lord willing, it's gonna happen!

The BIG day is actually monday, oct. 23 -- that's my first official day of class. i'll be earning a masters degree in education counseling. MEdCounseling --sounds cool huh? i'll sorta be "attending" Liberty U in VA. i'll check in each day (through Liberty Blackboard on-line.) i'll have assignments, quizzes, tests, grades, an advisor & all that good stuff.

God is good! He's allowing me to do something i've dreamed of...i love kids (double duh, huh?) & i love to help the ones who need extra encouragement, extra guidance, extra prodding to stay the right course and i think as a counselor i'll have opportunity to just that & i can teach group lessons on character & teamwork, etc.

i'm jumping ahead of myself a little, but i think that i'll like being a counselor when i grow up! :-)
