So many people on my Tumblr dashboard are back at college this week and it’s making me damn jealous. I really, really miss school. My own students start back on Saturday and I’d much rather be in their place with school starting for me on Saturday.

I wrote a post like this a few months ago and was waxing lyrical about my time as an undergraduate student. The thing is, I didn’t appreciate school at all at the time. I was never as enthusiastic about education then as I am now. I wasn’t a bad student but I wasn’t anywhere near as good a student as I could have been - except in my Government and Politics of the United States from 1945 - 2004. That class was amazing. The lecturer saw something in me and really pushed me to learn and contribute. I coasted in the rest of my classes.

Anyway… This time next year I’ll have a really good idea with what’s going to be happening with my life. Who knows… there might be a chance I’m not so jealous of people going back to school.

What classes are you taking this semester?
