Right before the beginning of each semester, I get so nervous and question myself. I worry that I am too old to go back to school and will not be accepted. I would like to thank everyone for making feel like a student and accepting me for who I am. Ms. Swan, your creative spirit and progressive style have dusted off the wheels in my mind and made me think again. What a great gift you have and give so freely. I did enjoy ALL of the speakers, some more than others, and I learned something from each of them. I can say the same for each of my fellow classmates. I felt a sense of sadness each time our learning community lost one of our own; sadness because they were missing out on getting to know a great group of people, thinkers, athletes, musicians, and artists. I would like to think that our class had a special and unique dynamic. However, with Ms. Swan at the helm, I have a feeling that all of her classes are pretty special. So like Johnny, I will be a little corny, my life is changed for the better having shared every Tuesday and Thursday morning as part of this group. I will miss "this"...........immensely.
p.s. I felt a little sense of accomplishment Thursday, Robert stayed awake for my presentation!!!!!
