I'm going back to school this fall. I will be 31.

But, I have to. I don't have much of a choice anymore. I hate my job and don't see opportunities to move anywhere else forward without it. Frankly, it's rather astonishing I make as much as I do without a degree now.



That's awesome girl. You seem like you would flourish in some kind of creative employment. I see you in art or fashion.

I think you will be suprized at just how much fun it is. And I enjoyed the learning and found it all very easy. What are you going for?

oh, I love school. I know I'll have a blast. (Though I'm hoping I can test out of a bunch of stuff... giggle ) It's the money thing I'm worried about. And I'm either going to just do a 2 year degree in Apparel Technologies or I'm going to get a nice, general, 4 year liberal arts degree. Probably Englsh or communications or something like that.

Either is very possible. I'm narrowing it down now.

ok so my job wants to send me away to school to further the field i've kinda fallen into. it's a great oppurtunity to have been presented with but at the age of 32, i'm like, gee i did not intend on going back to school.

anyone here going back to or in school now and you're not the typical student age?


I tried being an adult student. Couldn't hang. Everyone their was clueless to the real world and the fact I had to work and pay rent and bills

I moved to one of the poorest towns in Tennesse, and there I atteneded State college.

I was renting a house there for under 500 a month.

it's funny, i just graduated like a year ago and now everybody assumes that I'm trying to go back now to get my master's in Business Administration/Mgmt where I already have a bachelor's in. Maybe it's me, but i think that i'd just get stuck in a boring "high" position if i got a master's in what I already have. Thats why I want to go in the Information Technology direction to get an associates in Multimedia...
I will forever love and miss you...my sweet Prince.

I combined IT with broadcasting classes to focus on the future of the internet as a regular media outlet. wink

Hey Milty!!

I'm actually thinking of going back. I'm 39. I really need to get my B.A. I only have my A.A. I'm just lazy. I should do it this year.

Same here.
Though the downside is the thought of three years with no money
(and a bunch of school leavers)
