It is an awesome feeling to know that I am already so far in my MA program! The first six months of graduate school have opened my eyes to many interesting ideas.
In my first term I wrote two papers about things that I am very passionate about, and it was great to share my thoughts and receive positive feedback in the form of A's! In my second term I have enjoyed learning more about managing staff and volunteers, there were so many great ideas that I was able to connect to my own experiences as a museum staff member. Now I'm waiting for the grade on my first paper of this term and gearing up to write my second paper. Crossing my fingers for more A's!
I'm also starting to brainstorm ideas for my thesis paper. It is still a long ways away, but I'm trying to get some ideas flowing now...
And perhaps even more exciting than being 1/4 done with the academic part of my degree is that I'm already half finished with paying for it! I've been working hard to avoid taking out any loans for my MA since I am still paying those pesky student loans from my undergraduate degree. But, that is the price you pay for being a lifelong learner!
