College Bound


Mike and I have been talking a lot lately about our future career wise. I recently requested some info for online colleges and now my phone keeps ringing and its sooo annoying. So finally yesterday, I answered the phone and it was Kaplan University. After on the phone with them an hour I am in the process of getting enrolled into their Health Sciences program where I will be completing my Bachelors degree in about 3 1/2 years. I am so excited. At first I was thinking about nursing but sticking needles in other people just horrifies me so I asked the guy on the phone what other programs in the health field are offered. After reviewing all of them I decided that health sciences would be the best choice for me because I can do a lot of things with that kind of degree. Everything is strictly online so I don't have to leave the house and find a babysitter for the kids. I will be taking 2 classes at a time so I should be able to manage it along with my business and my family. If my mom can do it, anyone can. She used to attend college and work full time, take care of all of us plus still have time for a social life. She is one unique lady. Mike is thinking about completing his degree before getting out of the Army. I am really excited and hope everything goes right. If I am not accepted for financial aide, I may not get to attend so please pray for me and hope that I am eligible!

That is funny that you said when you checked on online colleges you suddenly kept getting calls. I had done the same too because I was looking into getting something in court Reporting and I think Kaplan College is one of them! I told them right now I was going to hold off, but it is still lingering in my mind. It would be great to take courses online, but there is no way for me to do it with these two rugrats right now. I decided to wait till they are in school full time. We'll see...
Good luck!!
