I'm just over halfway finished with my Master's degree. Grades were posted this week and.....drum roll please.........I'm still a 4.0 graduate student! Did you ever doubt me? haha I'm taking classes this Spring and then I'll take comps this summer! I should finish up the end of June! Hooray! I'm ready to finish it AND get my pay raise! I'm beginning to get burned out with school- I'm ready for a break. But, true to form, I'm not letting myself relax, stop and smell the roses, and enjoy the fruits of my labor. Instead, I've applied for admission into the Educational Specialist program- which I will start on in August. Admission is a guarantee, I'm just waiting on my letter to arrive so I can stop fretting over it. I'll finish up my Ed. Specialist in a year- so, July of 2010. Yay me! Then it's off to school somewhere else for my doctorate (by then I'll only lack 60 hours)- not sure where yet, but I'm leaning towards University of Alabama.I wish I could stay with Mississippi State - but I want to work there. (They prefer to hire employees who completed their doctorate elsewhere- they want a 'diverse' faculty. Most universities are that way. Crazy, right!) I talked with one of my professors last week about applying to become an 'adjunct' teacher at MSU. I will only be able to teach undergrad, but hey, it's a way to get my foot in the door in case something more permanent opens up. Plus, I'd make a nice little stash of money on the side. Who knows where this road will lead me! Okay, enough bragging!
