After a 5 month hiatus I am officially a student again, for what will be my last semester at school (probably ever, unless I decide to do some drastic career change in the long-term future). I finally started my final semester, I started this journey back in January 2008 which now feels like a lifetime ago. Back then I was dating Mike and we were sharing an apartment in Westchester (not really living together, we really had separate bedrooms and a roommate). Since then we've bought a house, moved to New Jersey, gotten engaged and married all since I started graduate school!
For the past 3 1/2 years at least once I week I would make the hour drive each way down to Piscataway, NJ to go to school, usually taking two classes back to back and getting out of school at 10pm before I started my journey back home. Most nights my mom would keep me company on the phone (unless she was too tired to stay awake), it got me through many late night drives home from school.
Just two classes stand between me now and my Masters Degrees, Organizational Learning and HR Strategy IV. And in less than 15 weeks from now that journey will be complete, and the wall space that I saved above my Bachelor's Degree since we moved into the house will finally be filled. Also in less than 15 weeks from now - I'll also be a new aunt three times over! Pretty exciting things going on this semester - maybe we can even add a puppy to that list, if Mike will finally let me!
