University in your 30's

Well it is official I am done university!  It has been 2 months since I wrote my last exam and I am  missing it........Ok not the exam part, the idea of going to classes and learning.  What started out to be a terrifying idea of going back to university after years of being out of school now is a desirable location.  If you are reading this blog and have any hesitations, or excuses about going to university because at your age it's not worth it, or too scary don't listen to yourself!  You can do it.  Start at a slow pace!  So many of my classmates were "experienced" Adults and were working their way through school at different paces to get to their end goals.  Some finished their program and decided to study further.

Talking and teaching about Ninjago Getting a ride Singing and playing and more playing and singing. The next day and our last full day in California we went off to explore the Indian Canyons.  Where Oasis meets the desert. After a "long hard" walk through the desert it was time to head back to the pool and get cool... Some pretty excited faces! Also who has this many cushions in there home???  BEST fort building opportunity ever! That was it!  We had one last night before heading off t...
