    Red face It's Almost 1 AM EST...

    And I cannot sleep. I've just passed my last exam to be finished with school! I am on my way to being an incredible bridal consultant and event planner! I have plans to claim my company name before the year is over and I will be making a logo soon! So proud of myself because this is something I did for ME. I kept letting everyone persuade me I need to be an architect or engineer to be happy, but it didn't. This will! I'm extremely psyched. I always focus a lot harder and better in the face of hardships!

    WOO HOO !! GOOD FOR YOU !! (caps intended). When life gives you lemons, make lemonade. With all of the lemons that you have received recently, I hope you're drowning in lemonade. If not, you will be soon.

    Congratulations on doing something for you! WE MUST take care of ourselves first or we have nothing to offer anybody else.

    That's awesome!

    Keep moving forward...one step...one hour...one day at a time. As hours become days, days become weeks and weeks become months. It all starts with that first step....

    Good for you!

    Very nice. Following your dreams, doing what makes you happy. You should be very proud.

    Good for you. Being an architect or engineer isn't for everyone, even among those who have the skill set to do good in those fields. And as an engineer, I can say that you have to pay your dues in those fields before you can start making a big difference. Follow your heart as much as you can, but be creative so you can have a good life.
    I have but one lamp by which my feet are guided, and that is the lamp of experience.

    And you ARE going to be incredible!

    Having quit engineering myself I know what's like to find something you really like without having the doubts of "but I could have been an engineer/architect instead -what if-". Now you can do what you want with a guilt-free conscience knowing that you could, but it wasn't for you. Plus, you know it was your own choice, not one affected by others.

    Best of luck
