Have I Lost My Mind – Shock to the System

August 31 2024

As Billy Idol sang, “Shock to the, shock to the, Shock to the system” 💥💥💥

I’ve either lost my mind, or found a long lost section of it. 😱😱😱 Last Monday I began at UNR alongside my wonderful 18-year-old, Thomas.

All week I’ve gone back and forth between, “What the hell have I done?” And “Hell yes! I’m doing it!”

I already have a 2 year degree, an AAS, specified as a Paralegal. My major and Thomas’s minor are the same so we’ll see if we eventually end up in a class together. Not likely, though. Thomas is ahead of me due to the specific classes they took at TMCC. We did meet up last week in between classes. So cool!

I may be absent from here at times as my brain tries to remember how to take notes while reading text books, retaining information, and studying. In addition to continuing my part-time work at NCED as a Family Navigator.

I’m getting a BA in English, with a Writing Specialization. I’m still deciding on my minor, or minors. It’s currently set as Social Justice.

I am Woman. I understand the assignment. I’m not going back. 🔥🖤🖤🖤🔥
