So....today is a special day because I have come to the end of 1/2 of my journey for my doctorate degree. I looked at obtaining this degree as a series of missions that I would have to accomplishment.
Mission One: Finish my coursework
Status: Accomplished! I turned in my final assignment for my final class last week!
Mission Two: Comprehensive Examinations
Status: Accomplished! Today was the second and final 8 hour long day of comprehensive examinations.
Mission Three: Dissertation
Status: I'm MIA for now. LOL, but the work will start up again soon!
Mission Four: Dissertation Defense
Status: One step at a time Devan Lol
It is totally surreal even now that I am officially half way finished, but the feeling is a good one indeed! I must admit that I have had my doubts, struggles, headaches, tears, and some good days and experiences as well. I cannot take credit for all of this myself though. I have some amazing people who have been in my corner, pushing and encouraging me along the way. To them I must sincerely say thank you.
The journey is not yet complete, but with only two missions left to go, that light at the end of the tunnel is a little more visible to me. Two missions to go :-)
