Yes me...who would of thought?
Sometime last year I applied for funding and today I found out it has been approved and the first semester is completely covered for me, first semester lasts for 6 months and the course can be completed in one semester...thank goodness.
Course I do have to pay the money back, but that won't be a worry until I have completed my studies and completed my course.
I'm going for my Animal Care and Studies certificate, I'm living my childhood dream.
I need a job so why not have the one that is my passion?
Whats the point of a job that I have no heart in? Even if it's the best paying job in the job, what would be the point when I could be doing what I love?
Luckily for me, I live in the town the campus is on and it's a 15 minute drive from my house. So I don't have to worry about living arrangements. I'll go there in the morning and go home in the afternoon so home life will not change one bit...until I feel ready to move out away from my parents that is but..one step at time guys..one step at a time.
I start next Thursday and I'm both excited and scared, whole new world is now opening to me. I've broken away from my parents controlling hold and become the person I want to be.
No idea why I'm posting this here but I guess it's cause this is the best thing to happen to me in years. I've finally stopped living in fear and getting myself out there. Making my life what I want it to be, not what others make it for me.
And I find it irony-my brother thought he would always be better then me.
He works at the supermarket
I'm going to college.
So, HAH to him.
Guess it's official now. I'm a grown woman now and heading to college.
The years go by faster the older you get, I swear they do...I'll be 19 this year. And to me, thats scary. I always thought life would be easier when I was older.
Boy was I wrong, it's way more difficult. But hey, I got my independence and adult rights. Can do anything adults can do..expect smoke. Yep can do everything but that, not that I want to do that anyway..no thank you.
Next Thursday will be the start of what I hope will be a great future and life for myself.
Nahla's newest challenge: Survive college. But I know I can do it. I have to, if I fail this..all my dreams will be shattered then what would I do with my life then.
