School-ARAMA

I'm not talking "Rock Appreciation and Theory!"


This Monday Jake and I are about to embark on a educational roller coaster. Since Jake was laid off we have been planning for him to take 4 classes at a time (6 week classes) so that he could graduate in August 2009. This means that he is going to have to eat, breath, and sleep school work over the next 6 months. However, it will allow him to enter the work force with a Bachelors of Business Administration. I am so proud of what he has done so far, this last quarter he did very well in his classes with an "A" and a "B". He is a natural for business and management.


I also am going to continue on with my education pursuits. Since graduating with my Bachelors of Business I have had the bug to keep going on to the Masters. However, the thought of doing an MBA did not sound enticing. I like business but don't want to research about it extensively. I originally wanted to go back and get my RN license, however, with the work situation it would be impossible at this time. In the meantime I am going to earn my Masters of Health care Administration. I think it is going to be interesting with the changes that are going to happen over the next few years with the new president. I want to be able to help to overcome these challenges and bring about positive social change in the health care sector. Wish us luck!

Way to go with the classes! I'm struggling to finish my bachelor's too. I've just decided to go to University of Phoenix. Wish you both the best! - Kim :)
