So, if you read my latest reading wrap-up, you might have noticed I read a book on studying for the College Math Placement Test (by the way, I did great). Well, that was my hint that I am indeed going back to college.
If you read my post on the Pointlessness of a Creative Writing Degree, you could guess I had a rather negative view of college after getting a two-year degree. Since then, I’ve been figuring what exactly I want to do with my life.
Finally, since my family moved, I’ve decided to go back to college to get a Bachelor’s in History. It’s exciting, but it also means I will be incredibly busy coming at the end of August when classes start. I’ll also have to get a part-time job, meaning I will be attending school full-time and working hopefully 20 hours a week.
Yes, I know I’m a masochist.
Anyway, why am I telling you this? Well, I’m hoping to continue writing three posts a week on my blog (where I’ll find the time, I’m not completely sure, but I’m determined to continue). If that changes and I find myself too overwhelmed, I may move down to two or one post a week, but I hope I won’t have to.
It does mean that I will be less active on my blog. As it is now, I work hard to make sure I answer all comments quickly and keep up with all the other blogs I follow. But coming August, I’ll be online less, meaning I may not answer comments quickly, and take longer to read the blogs I follow.
I am super excited (and terrified) about going back to school, especially for history, because I do love history but it will be hard. Please be understanding if I’m slightly less active on my blog coming in August.
As always,
Best wishes in your life full of adventure,
Madame Writer
Thank. You. For everything

Wonderful subject! Congratulations on taking the plunge. I think all learning is valuable learning even if I didn’t recognise that at the time 😉 (PS. I post about every four days and it works for me)

Thank you! Every four days is a really manageable schedule, actually. More manageable then my every two to three days. But I guess every blogger has to see what works into their busy schedule.

All the best of luck to you, my friend! I know what it feels like to lose social life and time when you start college. I pretty much stopped doing creative writing throughout college and graduate school if that says anything.
I would just tell you to manage your time the best you can and judge for yourself if you can make a blog post or not. People will understand if you can’t.
Best of luck to you again!

Thank you! Yes, I remember during my first degree, I stopped writing stories for fun, just because I was writing so many things for classes. Luckily, college doesn’t last forever, right? And yes, I’m working my best to manage my time, because there seems to be so much to do and so little time!
