@everhopeful I’m doing it for you!!! Jk i’m doing it for MYSELF. But so there was this course I wanted to take in the fall but it’s only for freshman-sophomores. It’s in environmental studies. Remember I wanted to be an environmental studies major??? Well I switched to writing because I didn’t know how to work the email system at that point and couldn’t email the professor to get a waiver for the course, and then the other environmental studies courses were filled up… So now I’m emailing the correct way to get into this class for freshman-sophomores. The class repeats from the fall. it’s a really good course. If I don’t get the waiver to get into the course, then say bye bye to school for me, but if I do get the waiver I will try to pursue my real dream, environmental studies to become an ornithologist and study birds. So wish me luck!!!
Woa! This is good news. I really hope this works out. Getting any qualification is good, and it’s going to be easier if you have an interest in the subject.
Fingers crossed this goes well!
Thanks you are a great support to me (and for us all) @everhopeful
I really hope it works out too. I like animals a lot.
there are other ways to get waivers from professors. but you have to be bold… 
I write about birds sometimes. we should do a co-op poem together about all the different birds. 
Not all of us Jon
Sorry you feel that way @Daze
Btw @everhopeful I decided that even if I don’t get into this class I will take courses at the community college in town in environmental science
Never once got a like or direct comment from @everhopeful
I really hope you get into the class!
And I comment to him all the time
Jon I think he hates women in general but not sure
He makes it clear who gets his attention
Sad
this thread reminds me of:
no pressure. 
i have a friend that did one semester in environmental studies and then he switched to writing as well english major
but i think hes just looking for an easy major cuz he wants to really make it big as a musician
Wow, I didn’t realise that. That’s even better news. Nows the time to do it, while you’re still young.
How’s your reading ability? You seem to be able to read ‘the way of the owl’, so it can’t be too bad.
Good on ya n good that you have goals and passions and interestests etc
I went to agricultural college but cant remember anything.
Darn my brain is as is but im grateful for what i can do still.
I have a horse n love animals too.
Not sure if i can leave my horse or if i wanna… i love riding her twice a week n take that away n baaaaaaa aaaaa aaaaa.
But I have bf interstate i might move in with n would have to leave her cause she is so old now but dont know if i can move plus ive not even visited him yet so see how goes.
Also i want him to “give” me his birds n nature etc as i think thats romantic and a part of relationship with me…
n theres few other things.
hmm
the woman who they said was my mum studied environmental psychology amoung other things and some sustainability thing too.
Hope you get in n enjoy your studies.
Happy for you that you positive about this etc. 
If you want to be an ornithologist why wouldn’t you major in biology?
Too hard. Environmental studies is better.
BTW I found a second class that works for environmental studies. It’s about the north and south pole. So I registered for that. If the professor doesn’t email me back I’m just gonna take this. So I’m staying in school. Thanks guys for all your supports.
I hope you don’t mean bye-bye forever. Because it might not have to be that way. I started at a community college in 1985, 5 years after I was diagnosed. I was 25.
I took a few classes for a year. Then my education was interupted by a nasty crack addiction. I also had a mental health relapse at the end of my addiction. I got clean in 1990 when I was 30 and moved into a board & care home. i started up college again while I was there and took two classes at a time for 5 years. I stopped again until 2010. Sorry about all the confusing numbers but my point is that I had huge gaps in my education. Now I’m 55 years old. I need three more classes for my AA degree.
People may think that at my age a degree is useless. Well, like my dad told me, even if I never use my degree to work in my field of study. my degree will still be valuable when I apply for other new jobs. A diploma shows a prospective employer that I have qualities that make me a valuable employee. A degree proves I have commitment, dedication, persistence, motivation and other things that an employer is looking for in a prospective employee. Anyways, I hope you get something out of this. Good luck.
hope you get it chew
a long history of work experience can do that too, and can do that better, whereas a degree narrows down your skills to a particular field and shows little to no work experience in that field, no? 
I’d rather enroll just to meet college students. 
If you’re taking out student loans consider that you have to repay them someday. I have $70,000 in debt and the interest makes it more each day. Yes I have a degree now but with no experience I’m finding it incredibly hard to find employment. Consider picking a major that will pay the bills. Just my two cents.
