School Daze by grammyn

School Daze

Part of the reason for my lack of involvement on 365 recently. After 50 years I decided to go back to school and get a college diploma. Yesterday was my first official day of class if you don't count the on line class that started on Monday. It is going to be an experience for sure!
what a brilliant undertaking. i salute you for doing this. if you need help, although i know you'll do very well by yourself, i 'm here to lend a helping hand or what's left if my brain. 😊 yay you!

Good for you. You will be a great student.

What a challenge. That looks like an awful lot of reading, but I'm sure you are up to the task.
August 24th, 2018  
Best of luck on your new endeavor....
August 24th, 2018  
Wishing you the best 💐👍💟

Good for you! I think you are going to do very well. What are you studying?
August 24th, 2018  
Great motivation and courage! I believe it will be over before you know it! Remember, the journey is also part of the eduction and it all builds knowledge! I'm a firm believer of "life long learning".

That is wonderful Katy, I am sure you will excel and have a great time. My brain would not be able to cope anymore ;-)
August 24th, 2018  
Good oh you Katy , I do hope you enjoy
August 24th, 2018  
Oh do enjoy!! What's the diploma in!!
August 24th, 2018  
Oh my that is amazing and terrifying ....
August 24th, 2018  
Oh my Katy! I’m very proud of you, you have amazing courage to tackle college courses now!

A great challenge, Katy. What are you studying?

@summerfield @tunia @henrir @amyk @joemuli @olivetreeann @mikegifford @ludwigsdiana @Dawn @30pics4jackiesdiamond @lesip @louannwarren @gijsje @sangwann I am totally blown away by the positive supprtive comments from all of you. Challenging and , terrifying are great words you used to describe how I feel. I'm not sure if it is courage or stupidity either!

My grandmother graduated from college in 1911, My mother in the 50's My daughters in the 90's and My granddaughters will in the 20's. I am the only one in that succession without a degree so when I registered I told them whatever is the easiest and fastest degree possible. I want my granddaughters to be able to say " my mother, my grandmother, my great grandmother and my great great grandmother ALL graduated from college." I am too old to want a career ...I just want the diploma so l will study whatever I am told for now.

Thank you again from the bottom of my heart because I know you will be there cheering me on until I finish! ♥

But.... you could be different? Do not need a diploma to succeed in life!
August 25th, 2018  
Wow! You are really brave. I know I couldn’t go back to school at this point and succeed. Go you!
August 25th, 2018  
@grammyn Can you get a photography degree or a minor in photography?
August 25th, 2018  
You have at leasst a Masters, if not a PhD, from the University of Life!! however, learning is fun, I think that you'r magnificent to do it. Have you chosen which subject- as I do not believe any are easy, it just has to reflect your aptitudes and interests. BSc in Photography perhaps!!
August 25th, 2018  
Wow! I obviously hadn’t seen this when I commented on yesterday’s shot. I encourage you to have fun and come out on the other end of the journey invigorated by the experience. I am really impressed by you.
August 25th, 2018  
Katy, you're a constant inspiration! I know there will be cheering from many sources as you work to achieve this goal! Good for you!!
August 25th, 2018  
@maggiemae You are right. I don't feel the need for it to define me as successful. I just want it to be an inspiration and legacy for my granddaughters.
@mcsiegle thanks Mary. So far I have only gone back to school Time will tell if I succeed! ;~}
@mikegifford probably but for now I am just taking courses they tell me I need. I had considered that though
@30pics4jackiesdiamond what a wonderful thing to say Jackie! I might be able to work photography in there somewhere
@sarasotab don't be impressed Robert but l certainly thank you for your encouragement and support
@wyomingsis Thank you so much for your constant support in all my life adventures. It is going to take lots of time from me but I think it will be worth it in the end♥
August 27th, 2018  
Katy, I really admire you for going back to school! Good luck!
August 29th, 2018  
@eudoraThanks for the well wishes Diane but there is really nothing to admire.
August 30th, 2018  
Wooohooo I love this! Well done you, I am sure that you are going to really enjoy yourself, and I am very proud of you!
