It's been four years when I decided not to continue my studies. Well, it was not really easy because it was not my choice nor my family's choice. I had to stop because I had no choice. I worked as Technical clerk, and until now I work as a call center agent. Life is not easy, but now I have to decide again. I am planning to continue my studies this coming school year. I also planned to render my resignation this coming May. I have come in this decision because I feel that I'm missing something because I did not finished my studies. I took up BS Computer Engineering but this school year i will take up a new course Accountancy. I am very excited and I hope my decision is correct.

Goodluck on your studies athoma! As they say, earning a degree is a different achievement. Finishing school would give you more opportunities in the future. It's really nice to know that even if you are already earning your own money from your job, you are still thinking of continuing your studies. Some people who have experienced working and earning money would just set aside their studies for the meantime until they forget it already. To them, it is of no use since they are earning already. The fact remains that the opportunity to those who have finished school and has a earned a degree is much greater than those who do not.

It's not easy giving up your job considering that it`s very hard to find a job nowadays and it isn't easy to retake your studies after a break. But carry on studying is one of the best decisions you can take during your live. There's no age limit to go back to college. So if you have the oportunity to go back to study, you should realize your dreams and exploit this chance.

Hi, I applaud you for your courage to step back into school life. You definitely have made the correct decision. It would be much better for your to decide going back to studying now. Should you give up this chance, you would definitely regret in years to come. To have a good life nowadays, paper qualification is very important. without them, it is difficult to get a good pay with a good pay. Unless we can be satisfied with the kind of pay we will be having, it only make sense to go back to studying to upgrade ourselves.

Good luck with your studies. It is sad that you had no choice but to drop out of school since a good education is vital to any job if you are going to survive today's economy. I think you have made the right choice in going back to school. Once you get your new education, you can get a better job and pay with your new knowledge. You have definitely made the correct decision. Good luck.
