So I found out I was pregnant a few weeks before graduating high school. I worked as a co op student as a nursing assistant at the hospital around us. After graduation I got hired into the hospital, but the position I'm in doesn't get any kind of benefits. I planned on going to the community college by me this fall to get at least a couple classes out of the way, but I missed deadlines and didn't get to register for my classes. My baby is due in January so I won't be going back to school until next fall. I have so many people telling me a) it's gonna be even harder when I go back because I'll have the baby and I'll have gone a year without any kind of schooling and/or b) I'm not even gonna end up going back because I took a gap year and that what usually happens. (My moms the one that said I wasn't gonna end up going back)

I know it's gonna be harder, I know it's gonna take a hell of a lot longer. I know that shit I don't need everyone telling me. I just can't wait to get my degree and tell everyone they were wrong and can fuck off because I did it on my own and don't need anyone else's opinion🖕🏻
