{I'm officially a college student}

After I graduated from high school I got married and had a baby.  Just like that.  That quickly.  While I would never ever change that because it gave me my sweet Bailey, it is one of my biggest regrets in life.  I have always wished that I somehow was able to go to college too.  I didn't realize how important college was until it was too late.

But you know what it's never too late....

And I'm a college student.  Whoop whoop!

So, I'm officially a college student.  I'm all registered for classes at a local community college.  I start on Monday.  What?????  I always knew that I would go back to school someday.  I've never really knew what I wanted to do though.  I still don't.  Ha!

Lisa's mom suggested I try medical coding and billing.  Alot of what it entails is interesting to me so I said, why not?  It's just a certificate program to start.  29 credits.  I've got this.  Right??

I had orientation earlier this week and that was, well, useless.  lol.  But Lisa and I went down to the school today and I got the books I need for this semester and a backpack.  A backpack!  It felt so official walking around campus with a backpack.

This is one of the most terrifying things I've done in life but I know it will also be one of the most rewarding.
