I have to get my CDA that's Child Development Associate.
I just finished my first class called ECED 103 (Early Childhood Education). I cried after the first Saturday Oct. 13th class it was too overwhelming to me. I cried for an hour when I got home, I was thinking how am I going to get through this in six weeks, I haven't been to school for 24 years.
Anyway I have 3 more classes to take we (there are 4 of us having to take this class where I work) we are already signed up for the next class in January. That's going to be every Monday night for 18 weeks (no spring break for us).
We had to sign a paper saying that we have to stay at our jobs for 3 years after taking all these classes or pay the school I work for back. For each class it's $300 that's $12oo altogether. So I guess I'm staying there at least until 2012-2013 year then I can quit my job if I want. I will be 46-47 years old by then.
Well I wanted to show everyone what I got in this first class.
I'm proud of myself getting this done
but it was a _i_c_ getting there.
