Wk 1 Issues and Trends

New course blues!
So here we are in our fourth course. We're knocking them down like bowling pins, yet it feels so slow. Maybe it feels slow because two of my friends just finished their Master's and I am kicking myself for not starting when they did.
Well, here we are in Issues and Trends right after a two week break. It was so relaxing not to have to worry about deadlines for two weeks. I think I got way too spoiled and relaxed. All this week I had to keep pushing myself to go to MyWalden and get busy. I guess I'm back.
I have almost all new names in my discussion group this time and so, I do feel without friends this time. However, it is also a great opportunity to connect with different people and learn from other people.
I am looking forward to learning some new tricks and meeting more new friends.

  1. Mimi,
    I'll be your friend! We are not in the same discussion group for this class. I see you are in group 2 and I'm in group 1. I am a follower of your blog so we can keep in touch that way. I feel the same as you about knocking out the classes quickly but yet slowly. The classes do move quickly but at the end of one you are so drained and guess what the next one begins that next week. It is non stop!! Keep up the faith and I'll try to do the same.
