On Exploring Uncharted Waters

As a student, we are often asked to try things which we may not have experienced before. This can be setting up a blog, or trying a new critical approach to literature, or maybe even just opening our minds to the opinions of others. I think that these experiences are what makes school truly worthwhile and enjoyable. We are going to school to learn, so why would we attempt to handicap this learning process by being unwilling to try things that we have not done before?

I am currently neck deep in uncharted waters. I am trying to get my information together for an application to graduate school. I call this uncharted because, though I know many who have gone to graduate school, I am the first in my family to even attempt it. At this time, I have people to lean on for support, and I greatly appreciate them.
