Is this really Happening????

SO I have wanted to be a college graduate since I graduated High School!! It has been a long journey and in the past stuff has always come up to stop me (typically money). In 2008 I decided that if I wanted to live in the style I wanted to live, (ie travel when I want, visit friends all over the world, have a "cute" place to call home) that I needed to get off my butt and go back to school. The getting started was the easy part! I chose Networking Administration because then I would be working with people still; and that is what I am good at... people! I choose computers because I figured it was a field that would be around for awhile!! I started taking 2 classes while I was working 2 jobs and plugged along. Then life got hard. I don't want to get into details but it wasn't fun!! At the halfway mark of school I wanted to give up - then I just wanted to get done. And the last semester was brutal. I had been told by the financial department that my schooling would cost me nothing then that Changed to $1000 then to $2000 and I was having some issues with my grades, and I thought I was out. I didn't think anything would get me back in. However God used my perseverance to get me back in and a friend provided the $700 it ended up being and the accountability that it would take to keep up!! Now I feel confident that I will graduate!!
