I am very ready for July 19th to arrive. While I work too much and class will take up even more of my free time, I do not (usually) get depressed at work or school. I enjoy teaching, almost as much as I enjoy learning. I only wish that I had a stronger will to do the things I want with my free time, namely working on my magazine and trying to find someone.
I think it is best that I continue to work all of my jobs. I may still look for an excellent opportunity that could replace my two main jobs, but that is unlikely to happen without my graduate degree. As such, I am going to graduate as quickly as possible – preferably by the end of next year.
By the end of the summer, I will have seven credits. Six more in the fall, followed by six in the spring will put me up to 19. If I can take about 11 next summer, obviously leaving my weekend job, that will put me at 30. I will, then, need only six more credits to graduate in December of next year. Realistically, I am probably looking at May 2011 for graudation. Eleven credits in a summer might be impossible, due to schedules and finances.
Nevertheless, it is a goal worth targeting.
