Hi everyone, I think I have figured this blogging thing out finally. I love being an online student. I have 3 girls one who is 7 months and one that is 3 and I get to spend time with them all day. I am not working, but online classes are great because by the time they get big enough I will have a degree and hopefully a good job. I love everything about the classes. I can do my work while they sleep or play, when I want to. I am kind of a shy person, and not being in a classroom where people are looking at you is really more comfortable for me. And I can say what I want and feel comfortable saying it. I really think the blogging thing is a really good way to communicate with other classmates, outside the discussion board. Here you can really talk about what you really want to talk about. The discussion board is a good form of communication, but this is a way to really express yourself.
I really enjoy it and hope to get to know everyone else a little better! :)
Kimberly your girls are sooooooooooo cute!!! Was this their Easter picture? I am so glad you get to be with your three daughters and receive your education at the same time. Like you I love this virtual education. I was talking to a professor from the University of Washington and he said he has a class that has around 740 students. I cannot even imagine being in that classroom can you? I would run away in tears and go home as fast as my feet can carry me!!!
ReplyDeleteOH MY GOD,YOUR DAUGHTERS ARE TOO CUTE!
ReplyDeleteKimberly,
ReplyDeleteI love online college for the same reasons! I too am lucky enough not to have to work, so I can be home with my daughter (21 months) and my newborn son all the time. I love school, but without the opportunity to do it online I can't imagine how I would have been able to continue my education without sacrificing family.
Hi Marie thank you. Yes this was their easter picture. 740 students is much to much for me. I passed school, and I enjoyed High School, but I can't even imagine being in a class again. This is the best thing they ever came up with. :) I think I would run as fast as I could too Marie. lol
ReplyDeleteHi Janine thank you for the complement, they are tooooo fun too.
ReplyDeletehi atinychaos, I know exactly how you feel. You miss so much time with your kids if you had to go sit in a class. this is the best thing they have come up with. Family is so important and to be there for your kids while you can is important I feel. Bye the way I like your blog name, it's cute.
ReplyDeleteHi Kim,
ReplyDeleteI wish they had online classes when I was a student because I would have preferred working online for all the same reasons. This is why I like teaching online. I love seeing your photographs of your beautiful family, and I do not mind others seeing my photographs, but that is okay. Having to dress for class every day and being physically in front of a room full of students is not my preference. I have been there and done that. I much prefer sitting here at Panera drinking coffee and typing in your blog!
Have you ever been to the hot springs in Truth or Consequences? I went last summer while my daughter and I were visiting Socorro. I do not know where Lovington is, but the hot springs are really worth visiting.
