Being an online student.

Let me start off my explaining my work life. I am a interior/kitchen designer. I work usually about 50-60 hours a week to start with. I end up having to bring work home all the time. My job is stressful because I work different shifts all the time. So some days I will work a normal morning shift which would be an 8-5. Then the next day it seems to switch to a 2-10pm. So my schedule is hectic and all over the place. Second, I am a mother to a 4 year old. So in my off time from work I am running all over the place for him. So I do not have the ability to be able to go to a college where its sitting in a class because I would never have the time to be able to do so. With online classes I can do them while my son is in bed. I can work on school work during the day from work when I have free time. I feel like it is really set more around my schedule. I love being able to learn at my own pace and be able to interact with so many people from so many different areas. Everyone has something to bring to the table which is great!!

I am a mother to a great 4 year old. He was a premature baby which actually got me interested in the medical feild so I owe this all to him!!
