Re: Like Renda, I'm Feeling The Pressure Too ...
Good luck with this Tim. as I get older, I find it much easier to experience the journey rather than becoming so focused on the destination. I think the same can be said about education.
Enjoy the journey, and love to learn... Good Luck!

Tim, I'm SO proud of you for what you're going to do! You would have loved Eddie's sermon this morning - it was all about pursuing your passion. He talked about Caleb taking the mountain, and you're a LONG way from 80! You can do it!!!!

Re: Like Renda, I'm Feeling The Pressure Too ...
I went back to school two years ago at age 57 to keep my teaching credentials current. It has been over 10 years since I took a class. I choose to go to a Jr. College as it made no difference to the state if I took undergraduate courses or graduate courses to renew my teaching credentials. Since a Jr. College is cheeper and nearer that is where I went. I felt strange at first as the students were so young and I remember when I was young at the Uni I admired the older few women that went back to school. Now I was the "older" woman. One of the courses was just as challenging as when I went to graduate school. I really got deep into the subject areas. It was wonderful. Now I am back into teaching as I am subbing in the public schools. I took a 12 year leave of absence to homeschool my daughter and my sister's grandchildren. After the death of her daughter 3 years ago Oct. I had to make many changes. I am glad I went back to school and reentered into an area I love doing, that is teaching.
So go for your dream!

I think that is fantastic! It's never too late, and I think you can appreciate knowledge and the learning process a lot more when you're older.
My sister went back to school when her oldest son started college, and earned a degree in psychology. I think she was 52 or 53 when she graduated.

Re: Like Renda, I'm Feeling The Pressure Too ...
Timlan, you have the right attitude for the adventure before you. May God bless you and open many doors for you.
Have you checked into their music department for some extracurricular activites?
