10. READ: I don’t read anything “fun” – interesting, maybe, but not anything I can get lost in. My TBR pile is about to topple – okay, so it was kind of tall BEFORE I started this programme, but it’s even scarier now!
9. SOCIALIZE: I don’t socialize much, and if I do, it’s with
guilt that I should be at the books.
8. COOK: I don’t cook from scratch. I would be fine with PB
& J sandwiches, but the fam would not. I love to cook, and use Saturdays
and Sundays to do it. Retired Guy has weekday duties. However, now we go out on
the weekends because I spend the day hitting the books!
7. EXERCISE: I don’t exercise or work out! I love yoga – had
to give it up because it runs on my class nights. I love walking through the
woods and trails – again, no time to do this. Between this and #8, I’ve gained
8lbs!!!
6. SHOP: I don’t shop for frivolous articles like new shoes,
clothes, things for my soon-to-be grandchildren!!! A bonus here, of course, is
that my bank account looks better – oh wait, no it doesn’t, because I have to
pay tuition!
5. WATCH TV – Okay, I hardly watched TV before, but I did
have some shows that I liked. Now, I have no idea what’s going on. The Rob Ford
fiasco totally cut into my homework time because it was a train wreck from
which I couldn’t look away!
4. RESPOND TO EMAILS OR PHONE CALLS: I’m a terrible friend,
mother, niece, sister. I try not to be rude – I try to respond – but it’s
usually with a “yes or no” and always …”I’m doing homework”.
3. BLOG: Although I should maybe do it as a reflection piece
– I just don’t seem to have the time (except now, when I’m actually
procrastinating doing my final term assignments)
2. CLEAN: My house is a Dee-SASTER! The dust bunnies have
been feasting on the dog hair and look like actual pets themselves! It got so
bad last week that Retired Guy found the vacuum and ran it around the living
areas. I thought he’d removed furniture, there was so much space!
And the #1 thing
you don’t do when you’re taking a Master’s of Ed @UOIT,
FEEL RESTLESS OR BORED! It’s so interesting and my brain is
challenged. I absolutely love what I’m taking and learning! I would recommend
pursuing this higher education journey to everyone!
