Feeling overwhelmed!

I'm in college for the second time.  I just changed my major to biology in secondary education.  (I was elementary edu. before that, but hadn't taken any specific classes for it.  The first time I went to college, I was an agricultural education major and DID take a bunch of ag. classes).  Anyway, I was looking at the requirements for my new major tonight and kind of plotting out a game plan.  I don't want to go back to work full-time until my kid(s) are in school, so it's going to work out perfectly, but still.  I'm looking at 5+ years of school ahead of me.  I put in 3 1/2 years my first go.  Ack!  Plus, I'll be attending a private college once I enter the teacher education program.  $$$$ !  They have a lot of scholarships available, so it may end up being less than what I was planning in the first place, but sheesh.  Oh, how I wish I'd done it right the first time around.  Older and wiser, right?

    :( at least you're sure that is what you want to do. I don't even know if I want to continue teaching!

    I am always impressed with anyone who goes back to college while raising kiddos.  Honestly I think you will appreciate it so much more and have such a feeling of accomplishment.  When I was in college, it was study...study... party....study....party some more- you get the picture.  But you have to study while taking care of a child & being a wife.  Good for you- it will all be worth it in the end!!
