My new To-Do

So after doing a little more review of and reflection of these past years one thing has become clear...I need to start setting goals again. I remember doing this all the time in college and feeling a sense of accomplishment when I was able to check them off a list.

Call me sick, call me twisted..but I really do enjoy "to-do" lists. They help me focus, they help me to not get distracted by the "shiny objects" in life.

One of the reasons I took the job at this college was because I was able to go back to school tuition-free and in the past 28 months I have only completed 1 class. Not 1 degree...just 1 class and that was with a "D" because I didn't do anything the last few weeks because I got wrapped up in work. Ugh!

Ok, well, that was then...this is now. I have decided to go back and start taking some classes to prepare for another go at the Masters program. I would REALLY like to earn my Masters degree and frankly getting to do it for free is just another MAJOR incentive. But I know I'm not prepared to just jump back in and do it, so I've decided to take 2 classes that I'm hoping will help me prepare for the MBA program: Human Resource Management & Accounting Principle 1.

This week marked my 1st week back at class and honestly I didn't do any homework throughout the week :S  But this weekend I got it all done! And I was done before 6pm on Sunday! Sooo proud of myself! So wish me luck while I try to keep this up and get good grades...and this is what my weekends will be filled with from now til Christmas...

But it's not so bad...I have some company...
