So my life is somewhat interesting. Not really, but hey, I'm happy. So there. I'm a 26 year old college student who's currently working her way through school doing retail.
26 year old student huh? How'd that happen? Well, I started attending community college right out of high school. I originally wanted to get into medicine and become a doctor or nurse, and then I took a couple of science classes and determined that going into medicine just wasn't for me. So then I started to work full time while I made my decision on what to do with my life. I took a variety of classes before determining that I wanted to go into Human Resources. So now I'm back on the right track so to speak.
I currently work as an assistant manager at a maternity store. My boss, "Andi" is a character and is a pleasure to work for. Before that I was a store manager for a large sun glass chain, a store manager at a shoe company, and have worked in various other retail settings.
My long term goals are to retire at age 50, work in H.R., have a couple of kids, learn to kayak better, launch my own line of jewelry, and pay off my student loans by the time I'm 60.
My interests are- art(which I love), perfumery, horse racing, books, history, computers, yoga, beading, jewelry making, cooking, vintage jewelry, and the outdoors. I 'm also really into living green.
My outlook on life is positive and I look at the world around me with rose colored glasses, as far as I'm concerned, things are never as bad as they appear and there's a positive side to everything.

Kudos for your hard work, Ally! :) Your advantage is within your reach already. Being able to work and study at the same time, could also be an advantage in life. You already have the experience on how to deal with the things in the professional world. Also, having work helps you build your self-esteem, and you’ll be able to feel the sense of dignity and self-worth which you could apply in your academics.
