My name is Jackie. I actually live in Cooksville, Illinois (about 20 miles east of Bloomington). However, I was born and raised in Bloomington. I am returning to college after many years and maybe this time I will make it all the way through. I’m not sure what my focus will be, but I’ll get there. I love photography and am currently taking a digital photography class. I must say that I wasn’t looking for an easy class, but I sure thought it would be a lot easier since I was coming in with some experience under my belt. And English 101 at this point in my life, is just crazy. Talk about making someone feel old! Holy cow, I’m surrounded by children in that class!!! LOL At the same time, I know that I am doing so much better than I would have had I done this when everyone tells you you should! I have two wonderful boys, Andrew and Alexander. They are my world. They are the reason I am back in school. I want to better myself, better my pay and better our way of life. I can’t wait to take them to Disney World! It will be so much fun…the funnest place on earth, they say….whoever “they” are.
