I am currently pursuing my MBA full time and working two part time jobs and with all that in addition to any social activity I want to pursue, I feel like I barely have time to blog!<br /><br />I'm in awe of all of the bloggers that manage to post on a regular basis and keep up in their normal lives. I try to blog 3-5 times a week, but when I miss a few days due to exams or midterms I worry that it seems like an eternity to my readers!<br /><br />My boyfriend (who has been blogging since like, 1999) says not to worry and that your readership is still interested in what you have to say no matter how often or when you say it. I'll still be reading if you keep posting. And yes, it will probably continue to be several days behind everyone else.bonjouritsjinahnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3535333731542839286.post-73044231141913751572010-02-22T20:55:40.000-06:002010-02-22T20:55:40.000-06:00I say blog when you can but don't stress, I wi...I say blog when you can but don't stress, I will miss you too much if you stop! xoxoamber's notebooknoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3535333731542839286.post-30841245656544439912010-02-22T19:21:42.000-06:002010-02-22T19:21:42.000-06:00oh wow, how cool!

I work full time, and more often than not I work a lot of extra hours. But I have found that blogging has been such a relaxing thing for me that I make time to do it. You can always try to keep up with both things, and if blogging seems to be getting in the way, you could always cut back on your number of posts for a while? I think we would all be sad if you quit blogging all together!

They have a very strong program with some great options, like the developmental track that you can add on. Denver is a great city: There is so much to do there, not to mention its proximity to smaller towns like Boulder and Highlands Ranch which offer a little bit of everything. And the shopping... oh let me tell you, you won't be disappointed in the wide range of malls and shops. If you ever have any questions about CO, please feel free to ask. I hope your interview went well and my fingers are crossed that you get admitted there!Meghannoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3535333731542839286.post-10571648634231811562010-02-22T14:26:47.000-06:002010-02-22T14:26:47.000-06:00As you know, I am in my first year as a teacher wh...As you know, I am in my first year as a teacher which is CRAZY HARD and takes up a ton of time. All of my other first-year teacher friends are so confused as to how I find the time and energy for the blog. Honestly, though, it's one of my favorite parts of my life and I am so glad I have a lighthearted outlet with all the horrible things that can happen at my school.
