Time Flies

Time flies when you're having fun. It is a cliché, but it is true. Time also flies when you're busy. I can't believe there are four or five weeks left in the fall semester of 2009. In a few weeks, I will be back to my normal work schedule at my full-time job. Instead of working late three nights a week, I will have a nice winter break and then return to the chaos for spring semester. It was a year ago I was sitting in my cubicle after work, studying for the GREs and thinking that grad school at BU was a possible but not likely option. So many essays, tests, and recommendations were before me then, and it seemed like I would never get through the admissions process. But, here I am writing this blog for class and acknowledging this is what I worked hard for back then. This semester has reaffirmed my decision to go to grad school and pursue PR. It is much easier to sit back and let change come to you, instead of choosing to do different things and further your development. It is hard to make choices and hope they work out without knowing what the end result will look like. This semester is only the first of many steps towards my masters, but I'm having so much fun with schoolwork, reliving the college experience, and learning again.
