Happy Hump Day (July 8, 2009)

So this is my first personal blog, which is pretty exciting! Thought it’d be a good way to share my thoughts and have some good discussions….

So what’s going on with me you ask? Right now I am trying to stay afloat as I prepare for the major comprehensive examination I am taking next Friday, while continuing to juggle an internship, a PT job, and something that might resemble a social life.

It seems as if getting an education means you must suffer for 4+ years in order to say you really know something about something. Everything in one’s life gets put on the back burner as you aim towards that one magnificient goal: a diploma. An educational experience that says youa re ready to work. What about balance? What about the rest of life? Must I really choose between an eduaction and having a relationship/family, having a social life, and making a living?

This brings me to a favorite quote: Education is becoming aware of how little we truly know. I think this is a very true statement. The more I learn, the more questions I have…some of which may never be answered. I guess that’s the way life is…

So welcome to my blog and stay tuned for more :-)
