It’s soooooooooo worth your time. If you can pull yourself away from the world for two seconds and look at your own life from the outside, you’ll see just how vain it is to give a shit about what anyone thinks of you. Just be yourself. It’s the most gratifying thing you could ever ask for.
Besides, when you stop worrying, you have more fun… and, in turn, everyone ends up thinking more highly of you anyway. Funny how that works, isn’t it?
So, the meeting with U of Phoenix campus in Las Colinas was great. So great, in fact, that not only am I enrolled, but I start classes next month. I gotta go to the campus every Wednesday night, but I certainly don’t mind sacrificing one night a week.
Until I have nine credit hours under my belt, I can only take one class at a time. So, I’m starting with what EVERYONE starts with—it’s basically Business 101. After that, I’ll take anything else that’s required, and CLEP out of some courses as well. Then, I dive head-first into the rest of the required stuff. I’ve gotta have 60 hours before I can start any of the business-based courses, so I figure the more I CLEP out of, the sooner I can get my BSB/Mkt degree.
As far as how this impacts Seattle… Phoenix has five campuses in the Seattle/Tacoma area. I can move whenever I want, and it won’t slow me down as far as school’s concerned at all.
I’m not in a hurry to leave though, so don’t get me wrong.
