Week #1 Exercise 2, Lifelong Learning-Motivate Yourself

I have always enjoyed continued education; after getting my BA in Media Communications at Our Lady of the Lake in San Antonio, Texas, I was a full time Mom for several years and then decided to go back to the University and study to be a Chef. Since I love to cook, I got into a One year program at Universidad Anahuac in Mexico City to obtain a Cordon D'Or Diplomate degree. On one side it was very hard managing my youngest daughter who must have been around 2 years old at the time, my two other children who were now in Elementary School, homeworks, studing for tests, and different schedules, but I had my Husbands support and that made it all possible. On the other side, it was a fascinating experience; we had different Chefs come teach us how to cook food from French, to Chinese, to Mexican. I still remember the Italian Chef, it was wonderful seeing her explaining the class, and I loved her Italian accent!
Years later I decided I wanted to be a Realtor, and started taking classes at various Community Colleges in Mc.Allen, Texas and here in Houston at San Jacinto College; until I was ready to take my final test and get my RE License, and so I did.
I enjoy reading Non-Fiction to continue to learn a little more about different topics. And now, I am so excited to be able to take this course, as well as Gadgets and Gizmos; I believe it is fascinating to see everything that is happening with Information across the whole world!!! and how it is making the world smaller and smaller... more as one.
