Yesterday I received my letter from BYU that said I was "provisionally accepted" into the Bachelors of General Studies program! Yeah, me! To be formally accepted, I have to complete a Student Development course, which is basically a class to help prepare me for the drastic changes I am going to have to make to balance school work and my "normal life". I had just finished a class like this in the LPN program, so I don't expect it to be too difficult. It will cover things like study habits, time management and stuff like that. Anyway, just wanted to document that I am on my way to finishing my bachelors! I'm actually a lot closer than I had thought. Psychology will be challenging, but I feel that right now it is the right path for me. It has been an up and down journey to get to this place, but isn't that what life is all about? I'm excited to get started on this next phase of my life. I don't suppose I thought I'd be a BYU student again at 44, but learning should be a life-long endeavor and what better place to do it than at the "Y"? Hey, I'm gonna need a couple of BYU t-shirts now, huh? Guess I'd better get to the bookstore!
