Car Flooded

The other day their was a massive rain storm that hit south Texas, and I just so happened to be driving in it. I was going through an underpass when my car got flooded with water. The flooded water reached levels to my seat cushions after just a few minutes. I was stuck no longer than 5-10 minutes before I got pushed out by some good Samaritans. My cars engine is flooded and who knows if I will be able to salvage my car. I have already started looking at new cars because they said it looks as though my car might be totaled. So now I have no car, and will have to some how get to and from work the next few days, until I hear word about my car or I buy a new one. To make matters worse my phone was in my pocket at the time of the flood and was submerged in water as well. My phone finally turns on, but only works for a few minutes without a charger. Tonight I will be at the Verizon store looking to buy a new phone as well. Overall a hard day, though I am making it through it OK.

Moving Soon!!

Come October I will be moving to Cocoa Beach, FL. I requested the move, because I have been in Texas for the last 5 years and it's time for a change. I will be working as part of the space command which I am excited for because I have been working for a training command for the 5 years I have been in Texas. The move will be quite stressful because it is so soon and I haven't started packing yet, but hopefully within the next month I get the ball rolling. I am excited for the new chapter in my life and excited to hit the beaches.

Starting off simple: The life of an distant learner

Distant learning has grown more popular over the years, mainly because it allows for flexibility and availability. All you need is your text book and an Internet connection to start classes. The main reason I chose distant learning over traditional classrooms is because I am active duty military and I change locations constantly, as well as a full time worker. Distant learning works with my schedule because I know I have one week to finish up each course criteria and my only scheduled event is the seminar, which can made up through a seminar 2 option. I am offered a great deal of flexibility and work at my own pace and on my own schedule. As long as you can communicate well, have an Internet connection and possess time management skills anyone can be a distant learner.
