My Passionate Pursuit...

To have finally found what I have dreamed about only to watch it get snatched away by a time schedule conflict. It's hard to sit through one class to only find that it might not be. Anyone who knows me can attest to the fact that I love all things criminal justice and all things law enforcement. Even more so, I am known for my passionate pursuit of a career in Homeland Security and counterterrorism. I happened upon the Fall 2009 criminal justice classes through a community college and have found my Cinderella perfect fit. There are few things in this life that fit me better to a T than Homeland Security related courses.
My elation however has been short lived by a serious time related conflict. It is with great sadness I find that I may have to drop a particular class now that I have found it. Issues in Homeland Security, could there be a better course for someone such as myself?! The Intro to Terrorism class on Thursdays, there seems to be no time conflict for that class but I really was hoping to take both courses. It's hard to find something so perfect and so right only to watch it slowly slip out of my grasp over something so fixable.
At least both classes are taught by the same professor. The Issues in Homeland Security is on the Marine base too which is just so cool. It really couldn't be more of my thing if it had my name on the course title. If there was an admission in the dictionary, my picture would be next to it.
God knows how much this truly is the desire of my heart. However much it pains me, I know that this will work itself out and I will be able to finish my educational pursuit in this degree field. Still sad though, very sad...
