So why did I decide to pursue a degree at this point in my life?
Why not!
I've been doing pretty well in my life recently, after spending a great deal of time in a rut that I thought that I'd never escape from. I'm grateful now! I've got a job that I finally feel like I have the chance at some longevity. And although it does not pay all that well, it fulfills a big vacancy that was there with all the other jobs I've had up to this point in my life. I'm doing good now, so why not see how far I can travel in this positive direction?
Why pursue a degree online?
Convenience. I work A LOT!!! But fortunately for me I spend good portion of that time sitting around making sure that the people I take care of sleep well. I'm not really into television, and my workout program is still yet to kick-off, so what better to do what my time than try to increase my earning potential and make up for all the money that I'm not getting now?
Plus, I'm a big computer geek, but I hate fixing other people's computers, so there's no way in hell that I was going to make any money with these skills, other than running office applications or clicking on-screen answers to get to the thing that I could say that would persuade somebody on the other side of the telephone to buy something they don't need, or even worse - TECH SUPPORT!
Why University of Phoenix?
Probably because I've heard more about them than other online schools. Sure, they have a good PR department, but even businesses with a good PR department don't stick around if they don't perform well.
Plus, I'm pretty into the mythical figure that they use in their logo...
I'll give you more in-depth information later. Peruse their site for now, if you wish. And if you decide to request information from them, trust me, you will hear from somebody really soon.
Next: Should I really do this?
