QD- life is like hockey, you always do better if you keep your head up. I think its very admirable that you are keeping your promise to your father despite hardship. Play on player, play on.

And travel to where the puck is going, not to where the puck is right now. The puck moves fast and you have to anticipate where it will be.

Wow... that was incredibly profound.

Now that I'm done with my first day of classes, I'm doing much better. Though, I'm still very frustrated by the feeling of seclusion/different-ness caused by my unique situation. It's made worse by the fact that I transferred and, despite my appeal to the dean, I'm being forced to take College Writing (Lit-101) after I already an incredibly similar class as a freshman when I was 18. (My teacher handed out construction paper and markers to make "name plates" in one class... while I understand the need for name plates to help learn names, the colored construction paper and crayolas were a bit elementary).

But - I'm going to plow through this year and - hopefully - it'll just fly by!

Ahhh...hockey euphemisms. The number one hockey and life rule to remember......Chicks dig the glove save. It's worked for me.
 

Funny, my wife told me the same exact thing last week. I just reminded her how important it was to her to get her degree and how she can quit stripping once she does ;)

Think of the rewards at the end. The pride you will have once you accomplish this even though you have all this additional responsibility. I always think back on how much i enjoyed learning in college and how it helped me stay mentally fresh as opposed to the routines and structures of just working.
