The purpose of this blog is to document the challenges associated with a 37 year old man with three children and a spouse continuing his education after a 13 year hiatus. Throughout this blog you will notice that some of my grammer and spelling will be let's just say bad, but hopefully you pay attention to the intent and the overall message that I am trying to send. Some days will be better than others but all will be an insight on the daily challenges of college life from an older point of view.
Today is 9-14-2010 I started school on 9-7-2010 the same day my children went back to school. The very first challenge I encountered was getting my kids back into the routine, it wasn't a problem for me because I am a former marine so.......6 o'clock whatever. The morning of 9-7-2010 my 7 year old (hence forth will be known as b-male) "daddy it's too early can I go back to sleep i'm sleepy? My response:" No you should have went to sleep when I told you to got sleep lets get going". My 12 year old (hence-forth known as b-female) "daddy i'm scared about going to 8th grade". My response: "thats normal that means you are ready for a new challenge".
I am taking 3 classes, (1) intro to logic (2) communications-131 and (3) english composition 101, so far introduction to logic is my favorite class because during the first week everything looked like greek (which I have no clue about) now somethings look like spanish (which I have a small clue about). I am currently working on my first essay for eng. comp. which will be 3-5 pages long and I will let you know how that's coming along.
Until next time.....................
