Things are about to change

Well, it's officially almost time for school. College classes start on Monday, and it's already Thursday! I have been busy the past few weeks trying to get everything squared away. I have all of my books, and I was even able to purchase some software that I needed at the campus bookstore, how great is that?! I am so thankful for financial aid, because without it I would not be able to attend classes at all. My sister is 17 and she just went off to college last week...and here I am 10 years older, following right in her footsteps! Of course I did attend college right after high school myself, I just didn't put as much effort into it as I should have and therefore didn't manage to learn much or get very far. My textbooks might as well be written in a totally different language, because the information looks so foreign to me! But I have decided that this is something that I really need to do, so I'm putting my all into it! The only other thing that I could ask for right now is a better work schedule, I only work part-time but I have to work 2 different shifts. It's not very fun to have to work during the day and at night without a class schedule, let alone when you add a more strict daily schedule on top of that. I am fairly confident that everything will work out just fine, as long as I can put my nerves behind me!
