BACK TO STUDY

I'm going back to finish my degree. Have been thinking about it for ages, but .....well let's just say that I have been procrastinating. I have been looking at doing it through Open University Australia and yesterday I took the plunge.

I decided if I didn't do it then and there I was never going to do it. I was talking to a friend the other night and she was doing some work on an assignment from her foundation studies course at Uni - I was sitting with her, helping her to work with the assignment and suddenly I realised that I really wanted to go back and do my degree. I was enjoying helping her and was enjoying the idea of exercising my mind again. One thing this friend said to me was "you just have to start somewhere, if you start somewhere you'll eventually get where you are going." ...you know what she is so right.

So here I am back on the Uni scene. I am not going to worry about whether I can get there or not and I am not going to worry about how I'll go, but I am going to start and work at what I will be doing.

I have enrolled but now I just have to wait for all the information and bookwork to come in....all the do's and don'ts and all the stuff I need to know so that I do all the right things.

I look forward to it all with excited anticipation. Will keep you updated on my progress through this journey.

There are so many things I would like to do in my life, but I'm not sure I'll ever get around to all of them.

I feel the same way about all the things I want to do, but realise I can't do everything at once. Just most things I think! Congratulations on conquering that procraastination thing!
