To New Beginnings

Hello everyone,

This is the first post on my journey! I would like to post at least once a week, if not more; however I am employed full-time and a mother of a two year old. I am also taking courses through MOOC – Massive Open Online Courses. In addition to the free course offerings through MOOC, I am also applying to graduate school. I am going for a Master’s in Library and Information Science. I think I decided to see how much stress I could place on myself before I went crazy. The other alternative is that I am already crazy, but even if I am, the pieces of my life seem to have started falling in place the minute I decided to go back to school. So, I have at least made some right decisions in the past few weeks. It makes me feel at peace with the world around me, so I think that I am taking steps in the right direction by going back to school.

Hence the blog. I want to use my blog as an outlet, a way to track my progress through this journey of going back to school and starting a whole new career all while taking care of a toddler.

Oh, and none of this would be possible without the loving support of my wonderful husband.  I love my family more than words can describe and I couldn’t make this journey without them. So a big THANK YOU to my husband, Dan, for believing in me even when I didn’t and all of the instructors that I’ve contacted that are going to write letters of recommendation for me. Thank you all for believing in me when I didn’t and giving me the confidence to move forward with my life.

To new beginnings….
