So, remember that "Big Announcement" I talked about a few weeks ago?
Well, I'm finally ready to show you what it is!!
And then I got this crazy idea.
As I've mentioned before, I've been job hunting for a few months now with no luck. I applied at three places and got turned down by all three. So, I went back to researching; checking out places or stores where I typically like to shop or cater to my interests. Well, there were a lot of jobs that I was interested in, but I didn't meet the criteria to even be considered; they all required that interviewees had a 4-year degree and some experience in the field.
So that's when this crazy idea of going back to school started picking up steam.
I've been wanting to get out of Minnesota since forever, so I started looking at schools out West and in the South, but being that I would be a transfer student, scholarship opportunities are pretty limited and I really didn't want to go the financial aid route, so I had to rethink things a bit. I had read that Whitewater was a good school for people with disabilities, and after checking it out, I discovered that a former Wheelchair basketball teammate of mine attended the school and played on the school wheelchair basketball team.
Being the sports freak I am, I was sold from that point on that this school was perfect for me. :)
So I applied and my family and I toured the campus and fell in love, though my parents don't like that it's 5 hours from home, but I say "YES!"
I plan to look at a couple of other schools too, but I'm pretty sure I'll be moving to Wisconsin for the Fall term.
:) Celebrate!
Til next time.
