So, if you're ready to become a distance learner, review all the relevant issues related to financing, checking credentials of schools, work-life balance, expenses, and what it takes to earn good grades. Here are more details about each point.
Non-traditional methods of earning degrees, primarily via computer-based courses, are fully legitimate. In fact, many of the world's top universities and colleges offer both in-person and distance curricula. However, it is still imperative to check the credentials of any institution before making any payments. Check accreditation status, read reviews from former students, and call the admissions office to inquire about how to apply.
If your educational goals include an advanced degree, it's worth looking into private graduate student loans. Working through a private lender, most prospective pupils can obtain enough money to pay for all degree-related expenses, take advantage of competitive rates, and get access to suitable repayment terms. This is especially helpful for current college grads who want to get their MBA, JD, or other specialty degrees to qualify for high-paying jobs. If you struggle to define balance in your life , this will surely help you.
There's no question about one fact in that e-degrees offer the best work-life balance situation possible. That's primarily because class scheduling is highly flexible, most programs are self-paced, and you can do homework whenever it fits into your work week, assuming you hold a job while you're in school.
Universities and colleges can earn high profit margins on e-courses because a vast majority of the classroom sessions are taped and can be viewed at any time. In short, schools spend much less on e-students than on those who live and matriculate on campus. In general, expect to pay about half the cost of a traditional diploma when you are a remote learner. One thing that's often overlooked when comparing all the differences between traditional and computer-based curricula is the discipline factor.
If you intend to opt for an e-degree, make sure you have the self-control to watch every video lesson, take part in live discussions, study for exams, and write papers.
For some, it's far too easy to give in to the temptations of TV, social media, and other distractions when earning a degree from the comfort of home. I am saying one thing that I am thankful each day for until Thanksgiving. You try it to it will bring you joy. November 1st, I am thankful for God and Jesus. I put my faith in them, they protect and help me through the happy and the sad in life. I could not imagine a world without them.
November 2nd, I am thankful for sweets. I love them. Sweets can make me joyful when I am upset. They make my sweet tooth go at ease. Especially Lava Cakes. November 3rd, I love my family.
They push me to be the best I can be. My family supports me and always cheers me up when I am down. My family cares so much about me and will do anything for me if it is legal. I really couldn't imagine a world without them. November 4th, I am thankful for my teachers. They might give me a lot of hassle and work to do. Yet they come through by trying to help however they can. Teachers can be funny and kind of cool. November 5th, I am thankful for my character traits. My hard-working trait, my try to be amazing at things trait, my sweet trait, my fashion trait, and my smart trait, and my love trait.
But I also am thankful for those who stick around when my bad traits come out like my sassiness, my moody trait, my sensitiveness, my grumpy trait, my angry trait over dumb things, and even my trying to be amazing at things trait because I always try to be perfect.

But it could have been very possible that Wanda would have had a very different name than the one she has today. What name would she have had? Butch Hartman revealed on his Tumblr that he had considered naming Wanda "Venus" to match the "celestial" theme of Cosmo's name. Venus would have been cool, but I personally think Wanda is a good fit because she's a fairy and her name is "wand-a.
Cosmo is considered by most to not be the brightest fairy there is. But what Cosmo makes up for in brains he apparently makes up for it in magic. Cosmo seems to be one the most powerful fairies, if not the most powerful one in the series. He has quite a list of amazing, though destructive, things he has down with his magic wand.
And in the episode Wishology, he was able to wish away Wanda's wand, something that fairies aren't even supposed to be able to do! It's a good thing Cosmo has a good heart. Cosmo and Wanda have to be one of the most liked couples of the show and cartoons in general. Despite having two very different personalities, they work well together. Wanda gives order to the chaos that follows Cosmo around like a lost puppy.
And Cosmo brings out Wanda's more fun side. These two have been married for about 10, years, but it's still very apparent that they love one another. Talk about relationship goals. And fairies live forever, so they are bound to be together for another 10, years!
One of the most memorable things about Wanda is her signature pink swirly hair. We have already talked about the surprising fact that her hair is styled after Wilma Flintstone's, and get ready for another Yes, that is right, in the original pitch of the show, Wanda was going to have a big blue swirl instead of a big pink one. It could be possible that her hair was changed for the same reason Timmy's hat was turned pink instead of blue? The world may never know. How did such a loving couple meet?
There have been a few different versions mentioned on how Wanda and Cosmo first met and fell in love, but one of the sweetest and more often believed scenarios of their first meeting is at the fast food restaurant that Cosmo was working at.
It was love at first sight, with Cosmo proposing to her with a chewed pen cap and the two getting married quickly afterward. Such a sweet first meeting!
It is made even sweeter with the fact that Cosmo was the outcast of Fairy World but Wanda still fell in love with him. Compared to how long Cosmo and Wanda have been alive, they haven't been Timmy's godparents for even half of their lives!
Both Cosmo and Wanda had full and interesting lives, together and separately. Cosmo was even in a band! Cosmo played the electric triangle, which got tomatoes thrown at him. Cosmo is usually the cause behind Timmy's crazy adventures, often misunderstanding circumstances, or agreeing to grant a dumb wish. He will sometimes cause Timmy to realize what has to be done to reverse a wish, but this does not happen often.
He also keeps a diary, which has all of his deepest, darkest secrets, including the fact that he is afraid of the hunt. He is often the subject of magic from Wanda, who usually does something to him to shut him up, including zipping his mouth and then encasing him in vanadium.
There are countless other scenarios. He is often rather careless but loves Wanda, Poof, Timmy Turner and plays as a very loving father as to Poof, and godfather to Timmy and husband.
Cosmo is noted to be one of the most powerful fairies ever, seeing as he blew up all of Fairy World in the first 5 seconds after he was born, sunk Atlantis 9 times, destroyed Fairy World again 5 more times, caused Mt. Vesuvius to erupt and destroy Pompeii, transformed Xanadu into Pittsburg, summoned up a gigantic three-headed hydra, whom he dubbed "Snowball", with one careless wave of his wand, and was able to accidentally wish away Wanda's wand and make wands in Wishology, which is something that it is said that fairies cannot do when they say that magic cannot wish away magic.
These actions would make the Fairies decide not to have any more children until Poof was born ten thousand years later. Cosmo also has had a big crush on the Tooth Fairy in some episodes but yet never had a chance to show it because she is in a relationship with Jorgen. Cosmo is also very ticklish. While pregnant with Poof during Fairly Odd Baby , Cosmo experienced severe mood swings so much so that his temper even scared Wanda and Timmy.
In Lights Out , he even went along with Wanda's plan to get back at Timmy who had scared Poof after reading the young fairy baby a scary story. He seems to have an obsession over most food especially red meat bacon, wieners, ham, etc.
Almost every time he is seen with food it is exaggerated. It has even become a running gag in the series. The first time he was seen to love red meat was in Hard Copy with bacon as he could not resist it when Wanda made it. However, there are a few foods he doesn't like.
This includes beets and sauerkraut. Cosmo's intellect, or lack of thereof, is often a source of many of the disastrous wishes that happen on the show. His head is quite literally empty and has no brain inside to speak of. According to " Fairly Odd Baby ", his head is completely full of jelly. He will either misinterpret a wish completely, ignore a rule or plot point which would prevent the wish from easily being unwished, or outright wish-grant the wrong thing that leads to trouble for Timmy.
In earlier episodes, Cosmo and Wanda usually split some of the blame, being "two halves of a whole idiot", but in later seasons it is usually just Cosmo being irresponsible that leads to chaos.
In some rare cases, especially in a few Season 7 episodes, Cosmo shows brief and uncharacteristic bouts of knowledge when he is able to guess or summarize the plot of an episode without any other character knowing what is going on. It can also be argued that since giving birth to Poof, Cosmo has started to mature little by little as he learns to be a father. Despite his lack of intelligence, he was smart enough to invent a board game by the name of Cosmonopoly , a parody of the non-fictional board game Monopoly.
In the early " Oh Yeah! Cartoons " shorts, Cosmo was considerably more intelligent and Wanda less intelligent than how he would later be in the show. Cosmo has a strange obsession over a Nickel whom he named Philip , which adds more remedial to his character since he stated Philip was a girl nickel. In Season 9's episode I Dream of Cosmo, it is revealed that Cosmo has raisins in his head so he can make raisin brain cereal, according to Wanda. It is also revealed that his brain is actually really, really small.
Ever since the day Cosmo was born, he has been causing chaos. When he got a magical rattle, he accidentally used it to turn Jorgen into a bomb that blew up all of Fairy World.
The second he got old enough to receive his first wand , he turned his father into a fly, never to be seen again. When Cosmo turned five, Mama Cosma put him in art classes.
