I set out to become a science fiction and fantasy book cover illustrator, but I decided to party for a year, got pregnant, went into debt, and now I'm trying to recover financially in order to move out to the area the college I'm interested in is located. Someday, someday, I'll get the education I need...

I wanted to be an engineer, building "green" power plants wherever needed.
But I got married and sucked down onto debt trying to realize the "American dream" (house, car, life, etc).
Now I can't get my WORKER"S COMP case settled due to abuse of my "citizenry" as one born in the USA who has seen non-enforcement of worker's rights!

1. to maintain favorable standing at work so as to be able to move sideways or upwards in 'rank' to gain experience.
2. to maintain school attendance and grades so as to graduate with a bachelors in my field, to allow for access to further job specifications, and also to open the doorway to a masters so as to be able to increase prospects in #1
3. to curve consumption by lower ratios over time so as to allow for more money to: save into a diversified option and begin to build wealth
4. to continue self education to maintain certifications and obtain new certifications on fields I'm half-interested in but do not want to pursue as much as my main line of study
- still in the process of accomplishing, problems arising?
1. waiting on school or certifications
2. worry about money for school, debt, loan repayment, worry about finals next week
3. not enough money to start saving in everything I want to save *right now* so getting a lot of flak from myself, fears, lack of energy to create what I want
4. worry because the only one that has a deadline is actually related to being able to maintain #1... -_-....
5. spreading self too thin b/c I still have daily 'chores' such as family, house keeping, and lack of time to do the things I want.
............
Oh, and when I was a little kid I wanted to fly airplanes. I haven't given up on that yet, but I figured it's something I'll do mid to late 30s - when I have a bit of cash to spare and not so busy with school (after masters?) - I'll treat myself to some flying lessons.

I set out to actually turn in my homework in time.
Problem was that I got the flu the next day, so that stopped my dream...
