It Isn't Impossible to Work Full-time and Earn a Degree

I decided not to go to college immediately after I graduated high school. After graduation, I found full-time job that paid well enough that I could move out on my own. While those first few years of feeling completely independent felt good, I quickly learned that I was in a "dead-end" job that I just didn't enjoy. I knew I needed to go to college before I could begin a new career, but working full-time and going to college just seemed impossible. I finally decided to register for a couple of online classes just to "test the waters" on how I could juggle work and school, and I realized it was not impossible at all! Now that I have my degree, I decided to create a blog to share my story and tips with others who need help learning how to juggle school and work. You can do it!
