Most of my family and friends are supportive in my education goals. Some are not. These are the ones who ask all of the questions.

I have made it clear that I am getting my degree for bragging rights. I do not plan on changing jobs. I do not want to feel pushed into getting a different job, just because I will have the degree.

One not so supportive friend asked me what I want to be when I grow up. He was stunned when I answered “educated.” Education is never wasted. I hope I’ll finish up this year, though.

School starts again tomorrow.
