I almost missed the opportunity because I didn't get my registration mailed in on time. When I realized I had missed the walk-in and mail-in deadlines, I called the Continuing Ed office and asked what I could do. The lady told me there were only a couple spots available but that I could actually register in the class on the first day. I am usually Queen Tardy, but I got to class more than 30 minutes early and waited on the instructor to arrive. Two more people came in that needed to register and I started to get nervous. When we approached the instructor he informed us that the class was full, and that he cut it off at 12 because it's so hands-on. I wanted to cry! He asked us a few questions and asked the others in the class a few questions, and then... he decided to let us all register! I could have kissed the man right there!
I have had my Canon Rebel XT for 3 years now and only started learning how to shoot Manual in the past month and a half. I have been reading everything I can get my eyeballs on and learning a lot from ILP and Clickin' Moms, but there's nothing like hands-on instruction to really make that lightbulb go off in my head. I haven't been this excited about something for a long time, especially something that's just for ME, not for my kids.
Yeah Becky, I am so proud of you for taking the step and doing it, you will love it and we do need to take time for us, we get lost in mommyhood and I know at times it is like I dont even know what I like anymore. And you will also have great photos of your quickly growing kids. Most of all you have the outlet you need and wanted to do for awhile. Kiss the man is right, see, it all works out the way it is meant to be!
