Thank you Angel and Debbie for your support!

This class has been an eye opener. After being in Kansas for 10-1/2 years evidently I have adjusted to people's self-effacing ways here. I have wondered what's wrong with these people many times. It is like pulling teeth trying to get any of the natives to talk about any of their accomplishments.

I thought I was going to be with other Kansans in my class, and was shocked to have all these students from other places. I was also shocked they were bragging about their accomplishments and even about getting up early in the morning.

God must have been laughing at my reaction. I was feeling like what's wrong with these people -- they are bragging.

This course feels a bit like a three-week interview. I like everything I am learning about this new university, and am having a hard time not to jump up and down, and say "Pick me! Pick me!"

Oh well I need to go read over the posting guidelines again.

Thanks everyone for your support!
