Five years after graduating from high school, I decided to go back to school for nursing. However, the administration personnel discouraged me by stating that the entrance exam was very difficult and had limited seating. I was talked into choosing a second major, and I chose Business Administration.

After enrolling and attending classes, I realized I had made a mistake and should have looked at my options. However, after careful consideration, I realized I needed to earn my degree, or I would be left paying for my school loans without a degree. Therefore, I earned my degree, but did not attend the graduation ceremony.
