Item #6- Get My Masters Degree

I noted in an earlier post that I had been accepted to graduate school. So, I officially start this week working on my Masters in Public Relations. [cue applause! lol]

Actually because of the weird schedule I don't actually have class until next week, but I did go to orientation on Monday and met some of my classmates. So far everyone seems nice and they come from a variety of career paths--I think one person works for the NBA, two or three work for various U.S. Congressmen etc. etc. but that's Washington for you.

Anyway, despite the fact that I know this is going to kick my ass...I'm actually more excited about this now than before. I found out some really great caveats come with this program...for one there's a possibility that I may score a trip to London with one of the courses I want to take over the summer. Secondly, as it turns out one of my professors works at one of my favorite places--National Geographic, so depending on how the class goes there may be some opporunities found in that. If all goes right [cross fingers] I will officially knock this goal off my list next year.
