It's a great journey and personally I've learned so much about things not necessarily linked to the degree I just didTiggerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06908185142445780713noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6800439330539427214.post-25112725230278875382010-08-03T23:21:32.084-05:002010-08-03T23:21:32.084-05:00That's is quite a trip of a lifetime.

I think a lot of people are motivated by the fact that they will have more money once they graduate from college and not on learning like you are.

I recently went on a "mother's weekend", where another mum asked me why on earth I was at uni! I was mortified - so I replied, "Because I can"! Many people have told me not to worry about where it was going to get me, because you just never know. Ecuador would be so exciting - it sounds like such an adventure. Make it happen, girl!Cazhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07753476927607441162noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6800439330539427214.post-26739170454354120572010-07-17T14:45:27.283-05:002010-07-17T14:45:27.283-05:00Th trip sounds great - hope you can make it happen...Th trip sounds great - hope you can make it happen.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
