I didn't know what to expect when I started back to school in September, but I am really enjoying my classes! It requires a bit more time sacrifice that I had been accustom to, but doing well in all three subjects makes the payoff quite sweet.
The pace of community college is much more pleasant than it was at BYU, but I also realize the student body isn't as competitive either. I shake my head seeing people who don't turn in assignments by their due date (or at all), or don't come to class, and then I remember when I was at BYU and did the same thing. School can be such a waste of money if you aren't ready to commit to it, and this time around I've got my priorities straight... even if it means staying up until after midnight to finish an assignment. (My theory is that my mind is nocturnal.)
We are now in the final weeks of Fall 2010 classes, and I just registered for Winter 2011 classes this afternoon! Time sure does fly.
I will say this: if anyone else is "considering" doing something, seize the opportunity. Before you know it, you are years down the road and no further along. And that is a waste too.
