I am always extra excited about school.
At 23, I am the "oldest" in my class (and yes, 'tis my second course - no, not nursing/caregiver) and for some reason I felt that while I am responsible for all my actions, I had to be extra careful with my decisions because my classmates (aged 19 and 20) look at me and my life well magnified.
Ever since I've decided to go back to school and take up another course - which is almost the east of what I took the first time, I am often bombarded with questions ranging from how's to why's - I am guessing, out of sheer curiosity.
I look at school now differently the way I did years ago (I graduated when I was 19). I don't go there just because I need to get a degree, I am done with that. I've seen and is now part of the corporate world that it sometimes no longer amuses me , after all life is not always about what you get but what you become.
Classes resume today after a good 2 month hiatus. In my white top and jeans, I geared myself with all the intangibles. I know, I am bound to learn again - always something to look forward to, especially on the first day.
