Yesterday, I've decided to start my own blog about my rough and harrrddd journey as a part time student towards graduation.
I decided to pursue my degree after unsuccessful attempts to change my current job at the time. I was paid below minimum wage, with no benefits, and just didn’t see a future there. At that time I lived in Tortola, British Virgin Islands where, in my opinion, the school system isn't up to par. So I decided to move back to my homeland Trinidad. I found myself with another job as the previous one but worse. My job depresses me everyday, but I keep telling myself there are lots of people out there who wished they had a job so I learned to be content.
I began college in September 2008. So here I am, in my second year of college with one or two more semesters to go. The road so far, has been reallll bumpy. Lots of days I find myself sleeping in the taxi on my way to school because I was overwhelmed with tiredness. I am learning to be disciplined when it comes to studying, and completing assignments. Two semesters ago I did HORRIBLE!! Tears almost came to my eyes when I saw two Fs and one D on my report card. I must say I did a little better last semester, I got one B, D, and two Cs. This semester I am determined to get As and Bs. Because of those dreaded Fs my GPA dropped drastically so my mission is to change my GPA to 3.0
So I will be blogging until VICTORY!!!

I am so happy to see that you started a blog. I remember when you first started and you wanted to give up and return to the BVI. I remember telling your brother Krys, that I am confident that you will complete your program and here you are - almost finished. Marvelous!!!!
