I’ve been in a funk.

A blogging funk. A life funk. A work funk.

I promise I will be back to normal soon. I have no excuse now that I am not taking a single class. Yup, Monica dropped out of her Masters program. Why? Online classes suck, that’s why. I was essentially teaching myself, and that is no fun. Part of the reason I enjoyed my time at the oh-so-freakin-fabulous University of Texas at Austin is because I learned a TON. A LOT. OH MY GOSH SO MUCH! Seriously.

An insane amount.

Not to say that I loved every single class (yeah, I’m talking about you biology of plants class…which was at 8 am!), but I loved that my professors held Ph.D’s in their area and they were amazingly passionate about it. They were. It was CRAZY!

Not so much with online classes. At all. They’re like, “Read/listen to this powerpoint. I sound like I’d rather be picking lint from towels as I narrate it, but it’s what you get kid. Riveting, I know. Make sure to take that quiz by midnight. I’ll be eating twinkies in my Lexus.”

No thanks, I’ll pass. So, until I can go to “normal” classes, I decided to put my Masters dreams on hold. Will I regret this later? Who knows. Everything happens for a reason, and now I can focus my time on my Etsy store, losing weight, and just being a 24-year-old newlywed.

Be back soon. Peace, love, and twinkies.

Notice I have my Longhorn shirt on? HOOK ‘EM HORNS! Who are playing on pay-per-view. What the heck man? Isn’t my student loan debt enough to warrant me watching the game for FREE?!

But that’s another post.
