Further My Education

I’ve just started a course in child development, business management and personal growth (you know, being assertive and making decisions and stuff). It’s not exactly what I want to be doing right now but it’s a stepping stone that’ll get me to the adult community college in time for September, where I can take the GCSEs I need.

And then onto bigger and better things! I’ll mark this off my list once I’ve completed the course and earned the qualification. Shouldn’t take too long, so far it’s been a breeze.

I want to further my knowledge on marketing, film, romance, be a zen master in learning how to romance the pants off of that special princess, spirtual and always keep improving in some little way.

How is everyone this Saturday.. :)

Kicks my Tia gal pal in the pants.. Wake up Tia and blog on here. :D

..Everyone dont forget to see Watchers in March. :)

IT WILL HELP ME TO LEARN HARD,RESEARCH MORE AND BE UPDATE WITH MODERN CHANGES.

I really need this to further my education and to prove to everyone that i can do this

Art in Theory: Western Civilization.

Really very nervous now! I haven’t studied for such a long time and I was never that great at essay writing when I was in high school.

What I hope to achieve with this course is simply this:

I would like to:-

to improve my writing skills
see the course through to the end-no matter what.
build my self confidence.

I hope I can go the distance this time and not give up at the half way mark – like I am so often inclined to do.

wish me luck!

Some people are born with the eager to learn and think and succeed. Not only can you land a better paying job but you can feed the monster in you. You know? The one that askes, who, why, where and when? I wasn’t born with the silver spoon nor did I get to start off on the right foot in life but the passion to get a higher education is in me!
I want to learn.

I kinda just left highschool without a plan, then somehow got a job, then got married and had kids all while still working and never really decided what I like to study, and I do want to study, but the question is what??

I went to University for a year straight. Then during my 4th semester my anxiety got so bad I couldn’t go to classes. I could work, hang out with (select)friends, actually get to class, just not inside. I ended up losing the semester and never went back. I can’t blame my anxiety on it alone though. While I was completely happy with how my new life was, and a few of the courses in general, overall I hated they had absolutely nothing to do with my degree. Looking back and speaking with friends who are still in the program I’m glad I dropped out.

I ended up going through a nearby college for certificate online. This turned out to be a great decision, I loved the courses and it showed in my marks. I completed it within 8 months and can now start working…

But is this what I want to do? Its the complete opposite of my first choice and while I don’t think its a negative thing, I have a lot of ppl around me saying different things.
The whole point of the certificate was that it would get me working faster and then if I liked it, I could further my education or quit and find something else without much time lost. But hearing I should use my creativity for something I’m passionate about.. like hair dressing/cosmetology, I wonder is this not a better choice for me? With both I have some great options in the future if I apply myself. Though hair dressing could open up even more… I could train around the world once I finish the basics!

So now what….

I received the results from my final class, simultaneous interpretation, and passed! So that’s the final course. Wow. My education has been furthered.

I passed Consecutive Interpreting, took the final exam for Simultaneous (which means that I have finished THE PROGRAM!!!!!!!!!!), and got the results from the written portion of the state certification exam which I took in April. One needs a passing score of 70 for both the English and Spanish sections.

My Result: English-80, Spanish-82!!!!!!!!!!!! oh my.

There remains only one step to my becoming a Certified Court Interpreter; the oral portion on the state exam, to be taken in July. oh, oh my.
