Always Learning and Working

In the last two days I got to go to a campaign school put on by the Missouri Farm Bureau.  Holmes Osborne and I went together and I learned lots.  I have not been in anything resembling a class since graduation, but I really liked it.  I took enough notes that I am going to be reading and re-reading for days.  
It was really interesting to listen to what the presenter had to say.  She managed to present in a way that was non partisan and could pertain to campaigns of all sizes.  She provided us with information that will help me to be a successful campaign manager.  I felt like such a nerd, but I was so excited learning about all of it and taking notes.  I got home and have gone straight to work, editing many of my ideas that I had put down in writing because her ideas made sense.
While all of my learning was really exciting I found out some very exciting news as well.  I got the results for the FOST test that I took a few weeks ago.  I passed the test, and with this I begin the next step of the process which is writing personal narratives.

  1. I can totally relate to that... I was in a training course for the web application I develop at work about a month ago. It's crazy how much you can learn to appreciate the classroom environment when it's for something you enjoy (and when it's not forced on you).

    On a side note, congrats on passing the FOST, that's really exciting man.
