College -- for Real!

     So, I'm a bit tardy on this post. Apologies! I probably need to post a warning -- I'm starting online classes tomorrow, and I'm not sure how much time I'll have to blog. Though I'll do my best, it might be a while before I'm able to post again.
     Online classes are a totally new thing for me. Not only do I have to get accustomed to the whole idea of "class", since I'm a homeschooler, I have to get used to the "online" part. I'm taking Music Theory, Music History and Literature, Aural Skills (aka ear training) and Pedagogy (a class where you are taught how to teach).
    It's not all been smooth. Take today, for example. I saw that a quiz on the course guide had been posted in the theory class site (note: there was no date posted with it saying when it should be taken). So, being the over-achieving homeschooler that I am, I thought, "Oh, I have time. I'll go ahead and take it." I printed out the course guide, read over it, and took the quiz. And then I read in another section that the quiz was the assignment for Wednesday. Oops. Does this mean that I lose points for not reading all of the information in the site first, or do I get bonus points for initative?
     Anyways, one verse has become my theme for this school year:

"And he said unto me, 'My grace is suffiecient for thee, for my strength is made perfect in weakness. Most gladly therefore will I rather glory in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me." 2 Cor. 12:9

His grace is sufficient even for my my embarrassing little weaknesses, like taking a quiz too soon, and it is more than enough for the challenges of this coming year. With that grace, I'm ready to tackle college -- for real.

About Me

Welcome to my little perch! I'm Kori, an 18 year old homeschool graduate who is the oldest of five kids. I'm an MMK (minister of music's kid), and I'm very thankful for the family the Lord chose for me! A few of my favorite things are reading, writing , playing piano, and working with kids. Right now, I'm pursuing a degree in music using distance education and CollegePlus! The most important thing in my life is my relationship my Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. In this blog, I want to sing His praises and encourage others to praise Him as well. Enjoy the music!

Luke 12:6-7 (KJV)

Are not five sparrows sold for two farthings, and not one of them is forgotten before God?

But even the very hairs of your head are all numbered. Fear not therefore: ye are of more value than many sparrows.
