    Going back to school at 30 is not the same as going back to school at 20, especially when you’re a single parent with an established career.

So many questions I asked myself; do I have the time, who can help watch my daughter, can I juggle another load, etc. I answered every one of my questions; unfortunately I gave myself excuses instead.

    Three years ago my life drastically changed when my husband of 19 years decided he wanted a divorce. I had always been a wife and a mother and only worked part time through the majority of my marriage. Having married at 19, I never thought too much about going to college.

Trying to go back to school while working full-time and raising two kids on my own is not fun. It’s a struggle to find that right balance of being a good student but also being a good mom.

    My transition to college was successful, but it was nonetheless one of the most stressful times in my life. Unlike many of my peers at Saint Louis University, my rural high school experience did not truly prepare me for the academic rigors of college. Despite extensive preparation, I performed rather poorly on the first round of exams. While I didn’t fail any particular exam, my performance was seriously lacking. I knew that getting C’s on exams would not serve me well in the pursuit of my dream of becoming a physician. I remember feeling, for the first time in my life, that I was unintelligent and incompetent. I was also heavily fatigued from the excessive hours of studying, which I felt were necessary to reconcile the problem. I managed to

    During one of my rides for work at O'SNAP, I passed by a group of students gathered around in a circle on the sidewalk. After dropping off my party, I drove by them to ask if they needed a ride. They accepted, but one of the students was visibly ill. I asked if they needed assistance to get back to their dorm, but they insisted they were fine. Due to the policy of NDSP, student drivers aren't allowed to bring back students who are ill due to insurance policies. The student insisted they were fine, but was unable to maintain balance and felt light headed. There was an unopened water bottle in the vehicle I was operating and offered it to the student. The other students with the student helped me lower the student to sit on the edge of the curb.

  • Essay About Bolivia

    1645 Words  | 4 Pages

    Located in South America, Bolivia is not only a very diverse nation but also a very divided one. Throughout much of its history Bolivia has been home to violence, poverty, and political instability with the constant rise and fall of leaders. Many of the rising governments in its more recent history have contained aspects of totalitarianism, including its current one. The current Morales Government has implemented many policies of totalitarianism into Bolivia, few of which have actually helped the country but rather have led to the rise or increase in many significant issues. Bolivia’s early history was fairly stable but after the Chaco War, which lasted from 1932 to 1935, the governmental stability within the country rapidly deteriorated (Facts on File, Britannica). Bolivia gained independence in 1825, fairly early...
