I have met my goal of getting in to Sigma Tau Delta. I am pretty proud. I made myself a new goal – turn in a piece of writing and get it accepted to their annual Writer’s Conference next year. I hope I can achieve this one. It is like I scratch a goal off the list and add one (or several) to it.
I now belong to 3 honor societies. Yay!! More than I ever thought I would. I am secretary for the UM-Flint chapter of Psi Chi. I was invited to join Golden Key in 2009 – blew them off (these damn things cost money) for a couple of years but finally decided to join when I got another invitation this year. I almost got forgotten about by Sigma Tau Delta because of a registrar or English department error – they didn’t realize I am an English major too. But I got in. I hope being a part of all these honor societies pays off. Sometimes I think they are a big rip off, though it is nice to be recognized and that will show up on my transcript. Plus, they all offer scholarships so I am going to get on the ball and start applying. I think they offer research grant money too.
Now on to my other goals and deciding which advance degree(s) to pursue. Ugh. I know what my ultimate goal is, I just don’t know the best way to get there. What I do know is, it is going to take lots of hard work.
