How I did it: I got kicked out of my mom's house when I was 18, and I moved in with an abusive boyfriend.  I got away from the abusive boyfriend, and I needed to get my life on track, and get back in school.  To get to and from school I needed a car.  I worked my butt off, sometimes working 2 jobs, and I got a car of my own.  Then I got my massage license, so I can survive financially while I'm in school. 

This semester I finally started classes full time!  I'm still working full time so it's kind of hard, but it's a huge weight off my shoulders to know that I'm back on the road to success. 

Lessons & tips: Even if it takes you a few years, it's worth it!  Your education is priceless.  Keep working towards your goal.
