Some people do different things to ease their minds. I am just discovering that one of the things that helps me, is to write. This post may be like a journal entry, I will write what ever is on my mind at that second.
I can 't believe that I am going to be done with school in a few months. I still remember my first semester of Jr. High at Canyon View, thinking that I never wanted to attend college, and that I would be just fine without and education. I did not think I have ever been so wrong about something in my entire life. I fully agree with President Hinckley's council that everyone should get as much eduction as the can. I do not think he was only talking about attending a formal University, I think he was talking about always be learning in your life, and looking for opportunities to learn.
Because of his council and the ultra competitive job market, my formal education will not end at UVU. I am going to pursue an MBA at either Minnesota School of Business, or University of Phoenix. I am very excited, and nervous to take on that challenge. Math is not my thing, luckily there will be minimal math in both of the programs. I am very excited for the other classes besides the Accounting class :( . I also like the way that UOP. Has the MBA program set up. The classes are once a week, for 6 weeks, and you only take one class at a time. I wonder if they let you have the summer off? I doubt it. The best part of all is that I can graduate in 18 months. The program is designed for working professionals. Having to provide for a family, this course would really meet my family and my needs. I do also like a lot of the courses at Minnesota School of Business( classes taught at Utah Career College Campus,) there is not a lot of math involved in that program as well. I am leaning towards UOP, but there is still a lot of things I need to decide before.
This semester in school, I am taking three classes, so far I have attended two of them. Both of those classes are PR related(which is my major,) I love them both. One is a PR writing class, and the other is a general PR class. The instructor is Stephyen Whyte. He is great, he has a ton of experience in the field. Most recently he worked someone named, Martha Stewart. He is a great guy that cares about his students learning, and becoming experts in the field.
I also am talking a PR writing class. It is taught Farrah Chase-Dunn. I really like her a lot. She is also an expert writer, and PR genius. She is an instructor that cares more about her students learning the material and just getting rid of them with a C grade. She has worked in the Fashion industry, and worked for Target. She is a cool person as well that gets involved with her students outside of the class room as well.
In short 6 weeks I will be a father of two boys. I am beyond excited about it. I can not wait for Braxton to have a little buddy to play with. He is very interested in babies right now, I think he has been prepared for Boston to come. Amanda and I were really worried that he would have a difficult time adjusting to the Boston, and stealing his time. Braxton is a big time momma's boy, don't get me wrong he loves to play with me, and have me hold him. BUT when there is a choice to have mom or dad hold him, he picks mom 9/10 times. I think that is all for the time being.
