At A Crossroads

Welcome to my blog! I created this blog to document my journey back to college at 25. I was at a crossroads all this year about just giving up or really digging in. I chose to dig in and dig deep as Shaun T would say. I've decided to try one more time and really stick to college this time.
I want to be able to give others the motivation I never had and hopefully we all can share this journey together. My entries will cover the daily life of a college student but with all the responsibilities and frustrations of a typical adult. I'll discuss budgeting while in college, scholarships, coping with classmates (the range of maturity levels), real online colleges ( no degree mills), fashion (dressing studious and sassy when you're over 21), finance, family, and of course education.
 If you haven't already read how I ended up starting, college at 25 feel free to click the link above about my History.  I use to want to major in Psychology and become a Clinical Psychologist but after more consideration as an adult I've decided on Business Administration, especially considering the recession and information gathered from yahoo, usatoday, and google searches about stable career areas without the 6+ years I'd have for Psychology. When you have a family things change ya know? I'll either concentrate on Human Resources or Economics. I know it won't be easy, I'm sure it may be fun. It's promised it will be hard but I'm sure it will all be worth it in the long run. 

If you're a student regardless of your age questions and requests are always welcome.
Also this book to the left is a good tool, no I'm in no way calling anyone an idiot lol but if you're an adult going back to college it gives some useful pointers. I'm all about things being reasonably priced and informative. I'm able to review it if anyone would like that.
