In my last post I talked about returning to college to finish my undergrad…well, there’s been an interesting turn of events… All the things were going along swimmingly.

All joking aside…
I thought about waiting until Monday to make this update to the blog, mostly because it's April 1st, and what I am about to write is no joke...I'm about to embark on a long-standing dream of mine. Finishing my undergrad. Back in high school, I knew very little about college. In fact, when I first …
The Talk…
