Dear innernets;
I apologize for my last crappy post. I thought it was really funny at the time. I mean, I was cracking myself up while typing it. Looking at it now, though… hoo boy, yeah, I laid an egg. But, I mean, won’t the internet please just shut up about Twitter for a little bit? Seriously.
I’ve got a more interesting post (to me, anyway, but hey, that’s what blogging’s all about) about a third of the way done and saved in a text file to finish tomorrow (maybe). Before that, I’d like to do a little lazywebbing and ask if anyone out there has ever gone back to college. Now that I’ve got my debts from the first go-round almost paid off, I’m considering heading back to get a degree in something less worthless than friggin’ English Literature. Possibly a CS one; I feel I have a good amount of practical knowledge about development at this point, but I know I’m still lacking a lot of the theoretical stuff they teach in classrooms. I wouldn’t mind taking my Japanese studies beyond the just-for-fun level either.
Anyway, trying to search for info about going back to school seems to return a lot of spammy-looking sites for study-at-home programs and chain trade schools like University of Phoenix… not what I’m looking for at all. I’m talking about going to an actual university campus and taking classes for four hours a day or so. Not quite sure how a job will factor into that just yet, but I think I can find a way somehow.
So please, if you have done this and can share your story, please post in the comments - and then come back, because I’ll likely have some follow-up questions for ya. If you can just link to some sites with more info about the process which aren’t trying to sell me anything, that’d be appreciated too.
