I’ve started my final term and I’ve only got 10 weeks left to finish my Associate’s Degree. I won’t be continuing on for my Bachelor’s right now. It’s just too time consuming to be in school and raising an active 3 yr old boy. He’s only little for a short time and school will be there forever. Besides that I’m anxious to put my knowledge to work as I’m knee deep in planning the launch of my tea party hostess business (Lady D. Berry’s Tea Parties…coming November 2008). Think professional chef meets party planner specializing in tea parties and you know what a tea party hostess does. Anyway…back to the books!

How I did it: I acted as if I was a tourist in my town at first by getting information from the Chamber of Commerce. I also checked local bookstores for groups with similar interests and asked everyone I met if there was anything they would recommend I see and do. All of these resources gave me ideas for things I could do at least once every month. Read how I did it…
I’ve got 3 more terms (that tranlates into 6 more courses) and I’ll have my Associate’s Degree in Business Management. I will probably continue on to get my Bachelor’s Degree but I want to take a short break since it will be around the holidays and I’m coordinating a multifamily trip to Disney World (see my goal of Disney World for Christmas). Lots of people are telling me not to take the break but I don’t think I’d be able to concentrate on classes the way I’d need to…even with the flexibility of being online and the fact that we’d be on winter break for at least that week.
But with the state it ts was in after the battle with old Voldy I think I’ll look at attending Beaubaton instead.
