    Hheath, you better duck and RUN!

    Kitty, just be there for her. Believe me when I was in Uni, I was stressed to the max. The realization of the amount of money and time I was spending had me in mega turm oil. I second guessed everything I did. I would panic late at night while I was laying in bed.

    I would think, I am spending all this time and money what if I don't like what I am going to school for? I ended up dropping the most important classes. I would now do ANYTHING to turn back the clock and continue on with those classes.

    I also had this impending feeling of doom in my stomach. I felt like, what if I can't do this? And then my negative thoughts took over, and I lost all confidence in myself. My grades in those classes started slipping, and I took the easy way out and dropped those classes.


    Any education in my opinion is better than no education.

    Bella did someone hurt your feelings ? They're just jealous... :) No tonight she cried and she never lets me know when she crys.. she knows I worry so much... Thanks Bella you're a gem.. I may go up there tomorrow. You think it could be just nerves and she'll be all right after she graduates?

    Aww thanks Classy T! That's really nice. I guess when I left HS I thought I was leaving shallow people and their opinions behind. But I guess your right, just because we all aren't gathered in one common area, they are still going to talk!

She's beautiful and has many friends but I just wonder do you ar anyone else who is young and in college have these doubts? She works two jobs one on campus and one as a waitress. We got her an apartment off campus and she lives with three other girls. She pays her part of the rent and now she's having second thoughts about her career. Your really smart Heath..how can I help her.
    It's a natural and common fear.

    Does she have a job lined up that'll use her degree? The only way to conquer the fear, is to face it. Once she gets a job that uses her degree, she'll either learn her fears were unfounded or decide that she was right. There's really nothing else to do.

    I'm an art major. Even though it's been more than a year since I attended classes, I still think of myself as an art major. I KNOW my chosen career path will be bumpy. Artists do not usually make a lot of money. I also know that there will be times when I wonder why I ever went to college in the first place. But, I love creating things. Even if I end up not always being happy with whatever job I end up with, I know that there's nothing else I could've majored in that I would love more.

    Bella.. You are a friend! Thank you for your advice about my daughter. I panic when it comes to my children or my grandchildren.. I've also learned this, everyone on here doesn't have to like me. It use to bother me , until I realized that's just how it is. I have lots of friends in my life . I came on this site and made a lot more. There a lot who don't like me, but it doesn't bother me anymore. :):) Thanks for your advice about my daughter. Bella... Hugs

    Stringer... You always know when I need you... My baby called and she's in a mood. She never crys.. strongest , most independent young lady.
    Dry sense of humor sort of like Fr.Chuck (I love Fr. Chuck) he cracks me up. She throws tantrums some times. She said "mommy i miss you and daddy"... I was ready to drive up . She's fine now. Thanks Stringer.. like I said you're just a big old softie with a heart of gold.:)

    Well, they are magnatized so they spin around the metal track without falling off. Its not really that fun of a toy but it is interesting to watch. I used to love them growing up because as a kid I had no clue how they worked lol.

    It spins. This video kind of sucks, but it's the best one I could find. The wheel is supposed to go all the way around the bend and back. I think her's is broken.

    I knew how they worked when I was little. I still loved them. I can sit and play with one for hours, if I don't get distracted by something else.
