First Time For Everything, Schoolin' Life

First semester non-traditional college student… Piece of cake?

Hell NO!!!  How many times have I wanted to quit?

I had so many friends offering me advice, there are 2 that stands out the most:

1.  Getting enrolled is the hardest part – That damn near killed me.

2.  Since you’re taking math your first semester, maybe only take one class until you’re back in the swing of things – Why didn’t I listen?

First couple weeks into the semester I had to travel for a business meeting.  I had meetings from 6am and worked until 7-8 pm.  I still don’t know how I managed.  I couldn’t sleep, couldn’t think and doubted my abilities.  BUT I survived.

With just a few weeks in this first semester left, my English grade is a strong A,  Social Science is an A and my Math grade just isn’t adding up.  I still have time to try to pull together the grade that I know I’m capable of getting so pray with me!

This journey is a reminder that you should really NEVER put off until tomorrow, something that you can do today.  I thought because I’m older it would be easier to balance and the information would come naturally. I can’t tell you how wrong I was.  I’m no smarter than my 14 year old…
