Barrett's Honor College

I was notified yesterday that i have been accepted into Barrett's Honor College at Arizona State University. So we will be picking up and moving to the Phoenix area soon.


Update: So we moved to the Phoenix metro area in June. Really love it here. I was not able to attend Barrett's. I was unaware of all the extra costs associated with being an on-camps student, as well as my degree is not eligible for the western undergrad exchange. My first tuition bill was over $17,000. so I went back to being an online student. Plus with the new job and all the kids new activities I wouldn't have had the time to commit to it.

School Shooting

So my son texted me 10 minutes after i dropped him off at school, because  someone called in threatening to shoot up the school today. He was safe and had left with a friend, and the friends parents. Police are all over school grounds, and there is definitely a heighten thence of security.
Most likely this threat was called in by some kid hoping for a three day weekend. Many parents took there kids home, so the bad guy won. He used fear to prevent people from doing there normal routine. However, if we send our kid's and they get shot or killed, the NRA, and Republicans win. The world officially sucks.

First class at ASU

Cruising through my first course at ASU. Sociology 352 has been interesting, and much easier than I had hoped. If I am paying this much per credit, I want to earn those grades. I applied for the Barret's honors program, and am impatiently waiting on the results. If I get in, we will have to move to Phoenix.
