My boss enrolled me in the Canadian Investment Funds Course to get my license to sell mutual funds…and my course book came in today!
I was going to take a cute picture with my book while ironically wearing my “I ♥ Nerds” T-shirt, but my battery died and I was too lazy to get up.
Anyway, I’m a little worried about how it’s going to go. I haven’t been to school in like 3 years and I was never good at the whole ‘homeschool’ thing.
First, there was homeschool until grade 4…which was basically mom sticking me in a room with my book and telling me to have 5 exercises done by the end of the day. I would work on it for about 5 minutes, get bored, and start playing ‘office’ with my fake phone and notebook. I only made it through half of grade 4 before mom sent me to public school.
Then there was the German fiasco of 2003. I was so hell-bent on not taking french and hating every.other.course offered, that I thought it wise to shell out $200 to take up german…the self taught version. I don’t think I finished the first lesson.
So who knows how this one will turn out…there is the little incentive of getting a raise when I finish to look forward to. Maybe now, all my sleepless nights will pay off.



You can do it!!
I agree, you can do it!
There’s something quite different about studying when you’re older. Firstly, it’s usually your own decision and you get to choose (within reason) what you study. Secondly, there’s that whole maturity thing happening. Self-discipline, motivation, goals and ambitions, ability to concentrate, etc!!
So yeah, you’ll be fine!
right. about that maturity thing….
