you can take classes just for fun.

before i decided to go for a degree i would take figure drawing at the community college so i could have access to a model and a teacher.

I, uh, urgh. I'm extremely creeped out by the prospect of having a kid. That is...really not for me, and I think my mom is slowly starting to get it. I've also been dropping mad hints that I'm more or less ace, so.

-snort-

Been trying to get a degree for the past five years. Hasn't happened yet. Thanks, mental health issues. Gonna try again at a different college starting next semester, probably, but boy do I not want to spend another three years struggling for a bachelor's in engineering.

i went to college right after high school, and was on the "five-year plan" - i have a degree in journalism.... but my main job falls into the financial sector. i graduated when i was still 22, that was in May (1993). by july (1993), hubby and i were engaged and we got married when i was 24 - the following october (1994) which was two weeks before hubby was 24.

(oops, i should mention i met him his freshman year in college (i was a sophomore in 1989).

wow, now i feel old.

also: older daughter was born in august 1997, which was about 5 weeks before our 3-year anniversary.

i couldn't sleep again last night ;-;

Glitch... will I have to go to the midwest and whoop some ass???

bah, that's not good, Glitch :(

i had a hard time with college because of my mental health, too.

i started at the college i'm at now as a sophomore, i had like a year and a half of credits. i only took 12 credit hours at a time and it took four years to get to where i am today.

all i have left is putting on my BFA art show and i'm taking an extra semester to do it with no classes.

school is hard and i had to go at a much slower pace than everyone else because i get depressed and anxiety. i thnk college was one of the best and worst things to happen to my mental health. i've had a lot of set backs, but i've also grown a lot in this process.

gliiiitch, you're in the midwest? are we neighbors?? i'm living in downstate illinois right now, but I'm from Joliet.

Noooo she is technically with me in the pacific northwest.
but on the edge to the midwest XD
Don't take her away from me .-.

lol ;-; i wont steal, i was just hoping we was neighbors lol.

Have you considered giving your kid Nyquil? (I am kidding, this is apparently child abuse and I was swatted for laughing while typing it.)

-snort- That' *barely* the midwest, mate.

I had a really bad anxiety attack this morning (started and worsened by THANKS MOM and the prospect of phone calls), but I'm a little better now and just finished a call to schedule an appointment with my (new?) academic advisor.

I dunno if it would help you at all, but sometimes when my anxiety is really giving me hell I will run my wrists under cool water for a little while. It helps lower your body temperature just a bit which helps signal to your brain that everything is okay.

goooo Espy!
also my therapist likes to say moms are 50% a blessing and 50% a curse xDDD

...mhh. I ended up going into the bathroom and curling up in ball on the bathrug.

It's ok. You're no longer there now.
I guess. Are you using your phone in the bathroom?
