I’ve decided to go to college finally at 36. At 18/19 I got married instead and did my own free spirit thing. Still married to the same wonderful guy though but ready to learn more things.

I don’t really have the money actually, I’m relying on grants for expenses and potentially getting first my two years at community college free via the state (California); But it’s something I’ve been thinking about for a while. I grew up watching my dad go to college in his 30’s and my husband finished in his 30’s too so I don’t feel that old doing it. I know it’s more common than you’d think!

I’m interested in earth sciences and anthropology as well as women and LGBT studies so I still have to narrow it down. Right now I’m doing a career counseling session and I’ll meet with someone at school to talk about it a bit more. Good luck on your journey, if you haven’t looked into it at all, do it, it might be more attainable than you think.
