I'm starting grad school on Monday and it's just too much for me to be active on here while adjusting to the step up in difficulty and intensity that I'm sure I'll be faced with on top of the commute so I'll be away til at least the end of March if not mid April when I have a two week break

Wise decision... best of luck! (Actually, I hesitate to use the word 'luck' because you're a hard worker and it won't be luck that makes you succeed, but you get the point, lol!)

Come back and visit!
 
We'll miss you!! Good luck with your studies. Val is right, you're a hard worker, so I'm not worried about you. :thumbup:

All the best to you, Jennifer! When the time is right for you to return, we'll be right here! :wub:
 
Good luck with your new program, that's very exciting! Hopefully after you establish your new routine or have breaks you can check in occasionally.
 
Great choice to focus on grad school at the beginning! You are going to do amazing things there!

And you'll know when you're able to add back a little creativity to your work load. We'll all be thinking of you!
 
Go get 'em, Jennifer! We are proud of you and will welcome you back whenever you have the chance to jump back in with us.
 
Thanks everyone! I'm excited and nervous. One of my classes has 27 people in it and the other has 6 so relatively small classes which is good. I only wish I was down there full time to really get into the culture of the program and university but it wasn't worth it for 2 x 3 hour classes.

So first week of classes over with - must say I miss the humserv crew (my undergraduate degree class) especially. Lots to think about that's for sure being the only person with a pure disability focus and experience. All my other classmates have education (early childhood through high school plus special education) experience and are working on education postgrad programs whereas I'm working on a Postgraduate Diploma in Disability & Inclusion Studies (& eventually the Masters of Disability & Inclusion Studies hopefully)

Plenty of printing and reading to do as well as plotting my semester out. I may only have 6 assignments to do but they are way harder than anything at Auckland was bar maybe the Positive Behaviour Assignment in year 2 or any of the assignments from Applied Professional Practice last year.

Good luck! You've got this far so I'm sure you will manage just fine!
 
I'm just in awe of how much work you do and how driven you are. I hope my kids are as dedicated in their post-high school education as you are!
