This Fall both Erik and I are again attending School. This is Erik's last year before Dental School. He has a pretty packed schedule just trying to get all his credits in before next spring. And since life doesn't always work out the way you planned it i have decided to go back to school to do what i now call the "super mom" major. lol. I decided that i missed school and wanted to still learn and develop new skills. I am taking the following classes:
Photography
Into to Interior Design
Aerobics
Sewing
7 Habits of Highly Effective people
Although these may all look like a lot of cop out classes can i just tell you how much i am learning things that i love and can use in my day to day life. I love going to school now. I feel like all the skills i am attaining from these classes i can use as a wife and a mother, and as a fall back if i ever need or want to work. I have already learned so much and most of all i enjoy it. This has been so good for me. Along with my Aerobics class at school i am also taking one on the other days of the week at night with some friends at BYU. It's so awesome to work out and feel in shape and have fun. The one class does some Zumba which is apparently like the newest hottest thing in aerobics. I LOVE IT! It's like Latin/African tribal dancing and man it's a work out! My sewing class is amazing i have already learned a ton and have cut my fingers twice within 5 min. of each other with the cutting wheels. My interior design class is where my passion is and if nothing else will help me know what to look for when buying a home. As i grow old and have many children i hope to always find time for myself to learn and discover and develop talents. I think it's a really good thing for any person to do at any stage of life to keep them sane and just growing in so many ways.

I love your class schedule! That's what I would love to do right now, but I guess it'll have to wait until my kid's in school. :)
I think all your classes sound awesome! I would totally take those if I were in your shoes. :)
i'm so glad you are liking it! there's something wonderful about saying "i'm a student." it was nice to go back to school myself. hey, come to think of it, we are BOTH going back to school and studying interior design!
great classes. I'm glad you are doing this for yourself (and your family). To get the updates on your blogroll you go into the customize on your settings and just pick the gadget that says blog roll. You can pick different preferences as to what is and isn't displayed. Then just paste in all the people you already have. Call if this doesn't make sense and I'll walk you through it.
I always said that I wish I'd taken more fun classes in college. I was so busy getting my degree that I took very few fun classes, just Volleyball and Art I think, the rest were required. So someday I plan to take many more classes and photography is one of them. I'd LOVE to take your "major"! Way to go on keeping your mind active and learning new skills!
If I got to go back to school and take any classes I wanted I would pick these same ones. Go you!
