Ahhh, the sweet smell of nostalgia.

I found this post in my "drafts bucket" - it's from 2007, obviously when I first started undergraduate, with two kids, a disability (or an A-bility, depending on how you look at it), and apparently a lot of angst. Enjoy!

As if I don't have enough on my plate already... I just made it officially official (at least to me anyways)...I am now a bonafide Cal Poly Dolly. Blech.


Being a re-entry student has its perks (more kudos from the general population, for one, on getting up off my behind and doing something with my life) but it's kinda difficult to be lumped in with a "my-daddy-has-a-credit-card-so-I-can-pay-my-way-out-of-any-trouble-I-ignorantly-throw-society's-way" mentality that seems to encompass so many females at a certain college that shall remain nameless ;-)


However, I would like to take this time to expose myself to the elements of this cross-section of the intellectual set, as it were, and share my experiences with you since I plan on being there for at least two more years. Or more. Depends on how much money my sugar daddy plans on putting onto my credit card. Just kidding.

Seconds, anyone?

As if I don't have enough on my plate already... and I'm having a hard enough time getting this thing called a blog up on the internet for the world to see...
I am now officially official (at least to me) as a Cal Poly Dolly. Blech.

I'm not one for socializing in the first place. Let alone with the "I-have-my-daddy's-credit-card-so-I-can-do-anything-I-ignorantly-flail-at-the-general-public-and-get-away-with-it" mentality. Watching them drive around in shiny cars while mine has two noteworthy dents collectively the size of Pittsburgh is enough. Now I have to deal with those people?!

However, being a re-entry student as it were definitely has its perks. Getting extra kudos from the society at large is one of them. Being able to juggle maintaining a home, being of service to the community, and raising a family is another. It's a skill I didn't possess---or rather, didn't try to hone --- ten-plus years ago.

So, we'll see how it goes. Welcome to my life as a Cal Poly Dolly!
