I Start School Again

[Introverted1293]

So, I start school again on Monday.

I was told that I have more then 90 credits, which is enough to get my AA degree. But I did not have all the classes I needed. So, they made me do an educational plan. Please pray that I succeed. I have 8 more classes until I graduate, and then it is on to University, which scares me.

I feel so old. I am almost 40. When I go to a University, I am going to be older then everyone there. My adopted sister is already working as a high school teacher, and she was 31 when she graduated.

Pray for me.​

Your life experiences will help greatly. In my experience these exactly compensate for the slowing that comes with age. You will be able to APPLY what is being taught much better than younglings who have no clue what they are learning. You will not get one low grade, like you would have blown off studying as the kids do.

You will be staring at the teacher and your classmates all looking at their phones.

Congrats on almost being done! As long as you work hard, there is nothing wrong with getting your degree later in life.
