After several attempts I finally graduated with my bachelor's degree from a top 100 university in the US, Northeastern Univesity in Boston, MA. I waited for the day for a very long time, and it was definetely worth the wait and I would not change the path I took to get there for anything.
While I always imagined the day, I never imagined the profound impact a college degree would have on my life. That piece of paper has not increased my salary and I wasn't offer any sort of promotion. But what it has done is made me re-evalute what is important and what it is that I want from life.
I have worked for some many years doing the same type of job, never really getting ahead. I always blamed moving on that, I left a job I loved to find a not single one I even like.
My husband and I have decided to make some big changes this fall by moving to Charleston, SC. I think it is the change that I need to take steps towards finding my passion, finding what makes me want to get up everyday and go to work.
Maybe this is what people go through when they graduate at 22, I know I am eight years past that but it's never too late to make positive meaningful changes.

No longer a Housewife (still a wife)
So after months of staying home with my dog child, I found a job! I have been working for over two months now and I think maybe I was crazy to go back to work! I decided to take a job at a start-up while finishing my last semester of school, let's see how this goes!
