step by step.

Winter quarter has finally come to an end.  I submitted my paper for my online course, took my exam and did pretty well, and I'm just waiting on grades for my other class and last two assignments.  This past week has been a little stressful, with work, school, and travel plans. 

My boyfriend and I went to Ash wednesday mass last night, and as I sat there listening to the priest, I kept thinking about how thankful I am to be alive.  To be able to work, go to school, and be around people that are loving and caring...This thursday we should all be thankful for the things we may take for granted.  Today one of the little things I'm thankful for:  water.  My phone fell into my water today, but I'm so thankful to have clean water to drink, everyday! it's those little things.  I may have to buy a new phone, but at least I have clean fresh water to drink =)

Going back to school has been one (of several) of the best decisions I've made so far.  It's been a challenge, and it will continue to be...but the best parts of life are the challenges we face.  Without challenges we would be unable to learn through experience.  Now that school is over, I'll have more time to sleep and watch some silly shows like The Bachelor, Jersey Shore, Grey's, and The Walking Dead.  I'll continue to read and study until I start Summer quarter, but until then, I'll be enjoying some much needed sleep!!

What decisions have been the best for you?  Have you decided to back to school?
