Unit 5 blog post- June 10, 2010

Hello everyone, I chose how is school influencing your life at or up to this point. When I first looked into going back to school I was a little query about it, because I did not know what to expect and at my age too. I knew I had to do something though, because I wanted a stable and reliable job that I could call my career. The academic advisor that I talked tohelped me alot and eased all my thoughts and fears of boing back to school, he was very helpful. I never thought that I would enjoy going back to school, because I did not really like school and was not a "A" student, but so far I have really surprised myself and enjoy it now. I have learned so much such as with my writing classes, to be able to sit down and feel confident on having to write a report. Being in school gave me a higher self-esteem because I proved to myself already that I can do this, and that's all that matters is that I am doing this for myself. I have learned so much with my Medical Assisting classes, and I find everything so very interesting, and now when my significant other goes to the doctor I can somewhat read hs lab results and know what they are somewhat talking about. There are many moreobstacles that I will have to face before this is all over and I will hopefully graduate, but I know for myself that I can do it.
