Like Riding A Bike

I’m happy to say that I survived my first week of school!  I admit it… I was totally stressed out.  It’s been almost a decade since I’ve gone to school, and I wasn’t sure how well I would do taking classes online.    All I can really say at this point is… so far, so good!  I like the way the assignments are given, and the way I have to interact with my classmates.   Hopefully GEN200 will provide me with the tools necessary to succeed as a student of the new millennium.   I’m really excited about my future.

In other news, I turned 34 years old yesterday.  The significance of that is that my gift to myself this year was to quit smoking the day after my birthday.  That is today… and I have four cigarettes in my pack.  Once those four cigarettes have been smoked… I am quitting cold turkey.  Stupid?  Maybe!  Necessary?  Heck yeah!   I might as well live to graduate college since I’ve waited this long.
