Home of Slightly Cracked Dreams

Here we go for round two of my update on my Goals for 2008 - part one can be found here.

Today I’m going to be updating y’all on my University goals *gulp*. Here goes:

University

1. To schedule specific time for study, and use it appropriately.
2. Maintain a minimum of credit average.
3. Transfer to a university closer to (our new) home.

Well, let’s see now. Part one. Umm, no. In my defense, so far this year we haven’t really had a chance to settle into our new home, let alone get any sort of routine happening. I am working on it though. It is hard this year as I LOVE one subject and hate the other. So guess which one I spend all my time on? That’s right, the one I love. I really need to work on that. Over the next few weeks I will be posting more about my routines, and settling into our new house and routines properly. Things have just been all over the place, and I need a quiet few days to settle things down and get it all organised.

Part two, well. I’m not sure how I’m going to go there to be honest. I am confident of at least one credit, but for the other subject, I really will just be happy with a pass. Maybe if I do really well in one subject it will balance out and I’ll still achieve a credit average for the semester.

As for part 3, well.  Having decided that we will be here for at least a year, and thinking about the career’s I’d like to choose post-study, Hubby and I have decided that I will finish my degree off at my current university. That doesn’t stop me studying elsewhere (I can choose subjects from other universities that count towards my degree, so when we are closer to a campus I’ll be able to do them there), but for the type of work I want to do, the current university is probably the best option for me.

Isn’t it exciting how goals can change through the year - our priorities change and we can change direction completely. And as I like to say - it’s hard to change direction when you don’t know where you’re going in the first place .

Come back on Sunday for part 3 of my goals update - I’ll be checking up on my Family goals for 2008.
