"back to school... back to school... to prove to dad that i'm not a fool"
Thursday, February 16, 2006 Filed in: my life
i've become one of
those people i hate. you know the ones. they complain
about school and how they just can't wait to be done
with it. and then they finally finish and what do
they do? they sign up for more! and we think "what
idiots! why would you want more of that?" i know. i
get it. i'm that guy now.
i'm not proud to be that guy. but here i am. and as horribly cheesy as it sounds, i found a program that i'm just interested in. there isn't some great practical application that i'm doing this for. it's just that i found something that i really want to learn more about. sure, it can be used in a lot of areas and will, no doubt, be useful in whatever future (and present) ventures i plunge head-first into... but mostly, i'm just interested. so... what the hell? why not get another masters? do i need two masters degrees? probably not. but i'm doing it anyway!
so... on February 8th... i go back to school to get my Masters in Organizational Leadership (that's leadership for organizations not for getting organized... that would take nothing short of a miracle and direct intervention from God himself) at Azusa Pacific University. the worst part... the classes are from 4.45 in the afternoon until 9.30 at night!!! (um... that's just short of five hours.) i'm gonna die.
