Starting Over

   I am 30 years old now. I have graduated from high school, I tried the college thing right after high school, guess what? It didn't pan out how I had wanted. So I dropped out and got married and had a family. Now I am going back. I start school August 26th. I am heading in the direction of law school. Yeah I am crazy, I know. But believe me, I have had a LOT of time to think about what I wanted to do if I ever got the chance to go back. I am going to do it, I'm in this for the long haul. I worked at a law office for a while when I was living in Roanoke, Virginia. I saw the good, the bad and the extremely ugly. I know how messy it can get and I want to be a part of it all, good, bad and ugly. I'm sure you might be asking yourself how I am going to manage going back to school with twin infants, a third grader, a husband and a household to run while still keeping up on my health and fabulous physique (giggle giggle). Well the short honest answer is "I have no clue". It can be done and I am going to be the one to do it. If you want something bad enough, it really doesn't matter what other people think or what they say. When I want something I go after it. I really wanted the acting thing too, but it just wasn't in the cards for me which is why I am going to make this be "in the cards" for me. I am going after it with all I've got. I know I'll be a lot older than most when I get out of law school, but I don't want to turn 38 and say "Gosh why didn't I just go to law school because I would be out by now!" People are going to doubt me and tell me that I have an unrealistic life goal but ain't nobody got time for that, I've got a law degree to obtain!
