Taking on College
When I was in school, I wanted to go to college to become a lawyer, but things do not always work out the way that you want them to. Money is one of the largest reasons that people cannot fulfill their dreams. Another reason is, as the old saying goes, “when you are young and dumb,” and again an old saying that applies is “that hind sight is worth nothing.” I cannot change the past, but maybe, I can change the future. I went to college a few years back.. I took a few classes here and a couple of classes there, then I got a job and stopped taking classes altogether. The company that I worked for moved out of the area. This to me is a minus and a plus. Many jobs were lost, which is the minus. When this door closed on me not having a job, another door opened. I have had the opportunity to beco . . .
At this point, your head is filling with questions. me a full time student, and this is the plus. I do know that all of this has broadened my horizons. I will be able to get back into the work force, and most of all I will be fulfilling part of my dream of becoming a college graduate with a degree and having a world full of all sorts of experiences that I did not have before. I am grateful for the experience of going to college, getting certificates and most of all, I am grateful for being able to graduate in the spring with a degree. I have learned many things because of all this, and I do believe that after I graduate that another door will open and again I will be working, and the education that I have and will have by May will not go to waste. Age difference is a factor of thought that enters the mind. True I am not fulfilling my teenage dream of becoming a lawyer, but I am getting a degree in Administrative Support. The nature of the questions that I was experiencing was how would I do this? How hard will it be to interact at college with teenagers? How am I going to work my school schedule with my daughters, with her functions? How am I going to have the time to have the quality time with my husband, my daughter, and my young son? How am I going to get time to take my responsibility of my home, and my schoolwork? I know that I did all of this when I was working, but I did not have to bring any work home with me, as I do have to bring home work with me as a full time student, trying to get it done on time, and to study for tests, exams, and such. For me to come to college, as a full time student was a bit hard, because when you think of college, one tends to think of teenagers just out of high school. Through all of this, I have overcome all of the questions about becoming a full time student, a wife, mother, and homemaker.
