finish my masters degree

This week I finished my twelfth class, which was the portfolio building class necessary for graduating. My portfolio is now complete!!!

Compared to that hurdle, the coursework I have left in my last two classes is cake. Bring on December 8 when it’s all done!

This makes me wonder, “What on earth was I thinking?!” ...But I know I’ll pull through.

Just wish me luck on both the written assignment and the group presentation that must be completed in the next 24 hours!

I usually only write when I finish a class, but this term has been so overwhelming that I am simply proud of my high marks in it so far!

In roughly five weeks my big final project is due. So far so good with it. After it’s done, the final two classes will be cake in comparison.

Everything will be done on December 8. I cannot wait!

It’s really amazing! I’m almost at the halfway mark! Yesterday was the deadline for my graduate diploma application…I turned it in…I am very grateful…a little while longer and this part will be over…I am very grateful that this time around has actually been a relatively easy going experience. Thank you Jesus!

Started one class. I’ve got five courses left plus a mini-thesis. With any luck I’ll be able to finish that in two years so I’ll be done in May of 2011 (tbc). I’d love to get this thing tucked away.

Start the count-down…!

I’m still working on my Bachelors but I’ll like to do this right afterwards.

I am halfway through a class now and trying to stay focused on homework intead of daydreaming. After this, I have one more class left and then I will start on my final project for graduation in January. The way it looks right now, I will finish during the first week of March 2010. :) I am excited to be so close to completion and geting my life back.

I have one more semester of courses left – one academic course, and one reflective practice course in the fall. Then in the spring, I will be working on my research and writing my Capstone paper. I aim to present at the May seminar, but if I don’t make it, I can present in the summer of 2010 with no penalty. If I’m later than that, I’ll have to pay enrollment maintenance fees, so I want to avoid that – and besides I want this degree! If I can pass my language requirement by the time I Capstone, that would be so great… but if not, at least I found out that I don’t have to pay – and have another 3 years to complete it. I would be willing to accept that extension on my degree if I don’t have to pay for it, and I could easily do a brief language study abroad in French and pass the oral exam, I imagine. So for example, if I Capstone in May, I could probably complete my language study in the summer and pass the exam by the end of August.

I will complete my masters on December 12, 2009! Yay!

Today I turned in my final assignment for my second summer class. I finished my other class with a perfect score(!!), and think I fared OK with this course too, although I have some fear that I’ll end up with an A- rather than an A. Not the end of the world, though!
I have a couple of weeks off before my FINAL term begins. And exactly four months from today I will be done with this master’s!
