I am thankful to say that school has had a positive influence in my life. The challenge that school has offered has allowed my thinking to move in many different directions, yet still stay within a field of choice - medical issues. Along with expanding my intelect, attending school has helped to build my confidence, which has been a challenge to me for many years following a very abusive marriage. This marriage ended 20 plus years ago, but the scars it left behind are still very noticable in my life. The experience of attending school has given me the opportunity to show (if to no other but myself) that I can succeed, I can excell, I can be agressive in pursuing what I want out of life.

The online atmosphere of our classes has allowed me to be vocal, where I probably would not be in a traditional classroom experience. This has helped in and of itself to boost my self perception.

The best addition to my life that the school experience has added is the benefit of being able to speak to people about what I'm doing, and my reasons for returning to school. I am focused in completing this endeavor to further my ministry field for the Lord. I am a motorcycle missionary who travels extensively to rallies all over the United States. My education will allow me to contribute to the income of my family, allowing for more ministry opportunities, and the field I've chosen of medical transcription can be taken on the road with me via access to the internet that is available most anywhere.

I'm very thankful for the opportunity I have been given, and plan to make the best of this opportunity by continuing with high scores and keeping up my GPA (this overachiever wants to hold onto her 4.0 to graduation)!
