School and vacations...

TAKING A BREAK

Just a thought today.

I hope that all non-traditional students can take at least a short break from school this summer or fall.

You, the reader, too.

I know I've read many studies about vacations and time off. It's just good for people in many ways.

Rest allows everyone to recharge their personal batteries so they can get back to their work or studies with renewed energy and positivity.

I think this means everyone. And non-traditional students know that being in school is just plain hard work. Period.

So if it's at all possible, I hope that each non-traditional student reading this can take at least a small break from school work this summer or fall if he or she can.

A special day, a relaxing evening - - even if it's just for hours instead of days, this rest can be so important.

Spring Break!!

Well. Non-trad students are counting down now. Some are on Spring Break. I remember last year Spring Break was spent WORKING on my teaching assignments. Whew.

When I was first in college, Spring Break meant... well... SPRING BREAK!!!!! Time to do something fun. One year I went out West with some friends on a car trip. I saw the most amazing horse on a cliff in Montana. He was a paint, red, black and orange spots on white - and actually pawing - just like in the movies. He was so proud of himself.

This Spring Break seems like just another week this year, but I know plenty of people are WORKING or going on vacation.
