I would have never imagined the semester flying by so quickly. I feel like it was only yesterday that I was stepping into the classroom for my first graduate school class and look at where I am now. For one thing, I would not have imagined how busy I was going to be my first semester. I think one aspect I noticed most, was the amount of reading that was needed to be done. To be completely honest, I did not complete some of the reading, it was to over whelming and I just could not find enough time to complete it all. The work load was also more intense, but than again this is graduate school. But I do feel like I have traveled distances from the beginning of the semester, till now. I have enjoyed classes for the most part and it has been a definite change from Northern Arizona University. I feel like I worked more hard this semester in school than I ever have, and hopefully I will see the payoff. I am looking forward to three more semesters like the one I just had. I have not had a whole lot of time for myself, but than at the same time I think that it was worth every minute missed. I am really happy with the effort and production of work that I put out and only hope to continue to do well. Overall, it has been a good first semester of graduate school at New Mexico State University.
