just like you knew you would

I am 50% sure that I am going to go back to school in the winter. and 100% sure that I'll go back by next fall. and by "go back" I really mean start over. as of right now, the plan is to enroll in the local community college this winter and get all the gen ed requirements out of the way before transferring. right now, I'm seriously looking at NAU because 1) it has a few different programs I'm interested in, 2) I love Flagstaff and 3) my company has an office there and if need be, I could maybe still work for them. (ideally of course, I would not be working for them anymore and would be doing something more part-timey while finishing up school.) the transfer school is all subject to change and is at least two years in the future, so I'm going to just concentrate on getting back into school and taking general classes. I should be able to test out of some... math I know I can test out of no problem... although I'm a dork and will probably want to take the math courses anyway because I have fun in them, and possibly the language requirement, but I would definitely have to do some serious studying for that.

so yeah. an actual plan. and I feel pretty damn good about it.

Yay for plans! That sounds awesome. (apart from the math. I doubt I could even pass a math class at this point, never mind test out of one)

oh man. math has always been a strong subject for me. I kind of love it. (although not enough to major in it or anything)

but yes! plans! I has them! ♥

hooray for plans. i'm glad to hear you're happy with the path you're laying out. ♥

(also, i owe you an email reply... soon!)

I've been trying to figure out how to do this for YEARS and I think I finally just thought 'fuck it.' like it's always been a 'oh when I'm more settled or oh when I have more money or oh when I'm living somewhere else' and just. that day is never going to get here. so I'm taking charge! WOOT! GO ME!

and awwwwwww that icon ♥

OMG THAT IS SO COOL!!! You can be the older student who everone will be like "oh god, she'll know NOTHING about computers or pop culture and she'll ask a thousand oldperson questions that pertain to nothing"

AND THEN YOU WILL BLOW THEIR MINDS AWAY WITH YOUR AWESOME. By the end of the semester, people will be coming up to you to asking where to find the latest notes on the class's bizarre online messageboard and what you opinion is on music's infuence in this world.

There, I just created a semester for you. ENJOY IT YAYES.

(unless this NAU place is a school for working/older students in which case...naw you'll still be the coolest one there. :D)

hahahha. I WILL SCHOOL THEIR ASSES! ♥

(also randomly, I have decided that my 'YOU GOT IT' moment is actually a few scenes earlier with "I got your gun" because I honest to god punched the air while watching the other day. JIM KIRK. ILU.)

Congratulations to you! *cheers you on* Still come to OK if you're interested in history or theology at any point.

[loveflyfree.livejournal.com]

I definitely am. I'm looking at NAU's religious studies program and then would really like to continue on to graduate school with either history or theology or some crazy mix of the two. like I said the transfer school isn't set in stone (it will really depend on what kind of financial aid I can get) so who knows! I could totally end up in OK. :)

Congrats! It really is fantastic that you know what you want to do, and have it all planned out. Best of luck!

sorry I'm terribly late on this, it's one of the 50+ tabs opened on Firefox that I'd get to later...and usually when it's this late after the fact I just close the tab after reading, but this post I really want to comment on.

[loveflyfree.livejournal.com]

Thanks! I'm pretty excited about it.

and dude, no worries. I do that allllll the time! :)
