Here I am in my second semester of college. I just turned...ahem...just a minute, I'm not used to it yet...Woosah...30. I turned 30 on January 17th. Like I said, I am in my second semester of college, and oh, the things I have learned! I will list said things for your reading pleasure.
In college, I have learned:
1. If I leave early, I do not encounter obstacles.
2. If I leave barely in time to get to class, it is possible on a 15 mile trip - to encounter road work twice, to get behind an old man who only goes 45 unless there are curves, in which case he goes 20, and to get behind a garbage truck.
3. One should never, NEVER, use an eyelash curler while driving, unless one's plan is to thin her eyelashes.
4. I can put on lipstick/lipgloss with no mirror.
5. Slimming tank tops and spanks are wonderful things for the self esteem of a mother of 4, until she has sat in class for almost 2 hours and urgently needs to pee.
6. I like to learn.
7. I wish I could get paid to learn.
8. I should not take online classes.
9. I do not want to go into a Science field.
10. I do not want to go into a Computer field.
11. I may want to go into a History field.
12. More than likely, I will go into an English field.
13. I love to write as much as I love to read, and that, folks, is a whole lot.
13. I can be on time consistently. (This was a very new concept to me.)
14. I can get homework done on time consistently. (Also a new concept to me.)
15. There are 18-20 year olds who are great, artsy, fun, wonderful people to hang out with.
16. There are 18-20 year olds who are less mature and more obnoxious than my 8 year old.
17. I want my kids to go to college and love it as much as I do.
