Grad school

I started my class for the semester last week. I a, taking a marriage and family class. Should be interesting and I really liked the professor. Since recently (in June) being married I think this class will be helpful. We are to read two books and share them with the class. I have picked out my books and dates. Now to get reading and take notes for my paper. Each paper has to be 5 to 7 pages to read or present to the class. S I will be starting that soon. I got both books on amazon kindle app for the IPad which is great. So that is what I will be working on this next month or so. Once I finish one book I will start the other.  So that is my update on school. I will post more about my class as time goes on.

papers, papers and more papers

In grad school I have learned a few things. First you write A LOT and when you think you are finished you are not. You must go back and re-do it. Second, there is never a finished paper and it is all about the current draft to turn in. Third, everything takes time, a lot of time at that. It is important to take breaks and hang out with friends and family and it is impossible to study and write all of the time. Here is to half way through the semester. Presently working on one research paper while preparing to do another one. That is what I have learned in grad school so far.
