The Best Christmas Present Arrived Today!

[Feralpeg]

We received notice today that Kendall has been accepted to the masters program at Leeds University in England. She will be working on her masters in Medieval Studies. This is the best Christmas present she could have received. She is so excited. She lives and breaths history and can't wait.

I am very happy for her, but sad at the idea of her being so far away. But, I can't complain. I've always told her to follow her dreams. She has always dreamed big!

That is so exciting! What a great opportunity.

DD15 absolutely loves history and especially the medieval period. Going to school in England for that sounds like her dream. If you don't mind me asking, what does one do with a Masters in Medieval Studies? What was her undergraduate degree in?

Her undergrad degree is in social science education. In other words, she is a history teacher. She has taught this year at the middle school level, but her dream has always been to teach college level. Since she absolutely loves English history, she decided to apply for this program. Eventually, she'd like to go for her doctorate in history and either teach at the college level or be a researcher.

The good news, from my point of view, is having a reason to visit England myself. I've been researching our ancestors for some time. Most of them came from England. There are so many places I want to see. This gives me the perfect excuse!
