Back To School - Ten Years After

Some days ago, while visiting Entrecard blogs, I came across a blog called "10 Years After". I read a couple posts and soon I found that this blogger is someone who returned to school ten years after, just like me.
When I read a post about feeling insecure to go back to school, ten years later and older than colleagues, I thought to myself: I´ve been there!
I can say I felt exactly the same but, nowadays, I think it was the best choice I did. I don´t regret anything. I know that when I finish my course, I´ll miss the good times I had and my school mates.
Probably I won´t have a job waiting for me, I invested much and don´t know if I´ll be able to get any return but I did what I always wanted to do. You see, it was my mom´s dream too. She´s 68 now and I wanted her to be proud of me. My parents didn´t have the chance to go to University so it was kind of a duty I had. I´m glad I managed to enter the course I´ve always wanted, otherwise it would be frustrating.
It wasn´t an easy decision, specially because my daughter was only one year old.
Now that I´m in the last year, I look back and I feel enriched with this experience. Reading this blog made me feel I´m not alone in this adventure.

Thanks for asking when you didn't understand. I was asking if in your post above you would link to my blog to give it credit. Thanks again for the post!

Hi.
Now I´m confused...Benjamin, Kristine...
I don´t mind adding the link, I didn´t do it right away because I´m doing sponsored posts in this blog. Are you sure about this, or you don´t mind?
