Change of Plans

I wrote this on July 8.

Class started on July 14.

I submitted a withdrawal request on July 28.

Today I am doing only what it is that I want to do...be a wife and mommy.

I was terribly excited to start back to school but that excitement soon turned to fear as discovered the real requirements for the class and the rest of the classes for that matter. A job and experience. Could I finish without the two? Yes. Would it take extra work on my part? Yes. After hearing my choices, I went with the decision in my heart and quit. My family is my number one priority. That being said, I wasn't willing to put that aside to do what would have been required of me to finish my Bachelor's degree. That weight that was lifted off my shoulders when I finished my Associate's, it has since been lifted again.

I know I'm not finished with school. I want to finish it. Just not now.
