Musings on school... or lack thereof

May 05, 2010 21:38

So it's hard to imagine, but in 18 days, after give or take 20 years of school straight, I will be finished.  Finished.  Right now, I'm super excited.  I'm tired of writing papers and doing readings that may or may not interest me, but I know I'm going to miss it.  I know that a few months out (maybe sooner, maybe later) I'm going to miss it.  Maybe that's why I'm drawn to the field of Christian education.  Because I am a perpetual student.  Maybe that's one of the reasons I fell in love with Justin - because he's a teacher.  Everything about my life has to do with education.  I wonder how long it will be before one or both of us decide we want to go back to school.  Don't get me wrong, at this point I have no intention of going on to get a phd, but you never know.  It could be interesting to get another masters - one in elementary education or something.  Of course the next step is ordination.  It's still about 2-3 years away, but that's the next step for me.  That and get money.  It will be nice to have money.

I still can't believe it's almost through...
