Storytime #29: Journey to another shot to return to college.

This story is very interesting to me especially in this usual time of pandemic, this year (2020). I used to go to Chattahoochee Technical College for almost 10 years. And for a while as a student there, my goal was to finish there with a diploma of study and still stay home afterwards. Well... after one or two failed classes with a struggling financial aid to continue, I decided to not return to college again for a while after my last term in 2018 into 2019. When the COVID-19 hit in 2020, I was like, “I hope I can do this again, - return to my dream of getting into to film/television industry one day.” While also working of my business blog and connect with other people of a different way like Zoom as example. With my worship with Northwest Unitarian Universalist Congregation in Sandy Springs, GA. it’s unique until we can worship together in person, one day. Even though I love to connect with others, I was unsure what to do for my education. Greatly, inspiration of hope appeared on television about Southern New Hampshire University; my mother suggested me to try them. So, I did apply with them - taking Bachelors of Science degree in Business Administration: Entrepreneurship (online classes), all myself. In within a couple of weeks, my financial aid was approved. And not too long from now, I will be prepared for online classes for the first time. It will be another challenge for me as with my knowledge and skills, next year, January 2021. (My new journey of education continues).
