Topic: Grad School
Let's see, where to begin?
I guess the best place to start would be that I hated school when I was younger. Lower and middle school were just a pain in the ass. Not because of the work or anything...I never studied or did homework, unless I knew the homewrok would be collected...but because it took away so much of my play time.
When I went into the upper division, I had a little bit of a goal to shoot for, the Air Force Academy. Even this didn't really make me want to study, however.
After graduation I went to the University of Florida for about three semesters, and then moved back to Tampa. After a semester off, I went back to Hillsborough Community College, and moved out of my parents house.
I finished my A.S. at HCC and then went to the University of South Florida until I finished my B.S. in MIS in December of 2003.
I just started Graduate School at Florida State University. It was not an easy decision for me to make to go back to school, especially knowing that I'd be going to FSU! All the way through my school carrer, I've gotten by with doing little to no work or reading. However, my wife is attending the Pharmacy school at FAMU, and I knew that would have to move, hence the reason that I would be forced to get my graduate degree from FSU. Well, it dawned on me one day that she would graduate as a Doctor of Pharmacy...and that we could be introduced as Dr. & Mr. and that just didn't sit right with me.
So I decided that my competitive side wouldn't allow my wife to gain that title over me, and I applied for Grad school. My one biggest fear was that I would actually have to do some work in Grad school. Well, I was right to be fearful! I've written reports before in high school and college, but I've never had to write one every single week!
I'm not sure exactly how this will all play out, but stay tuned and find out...
