Surprising myself

Returning to school at the age of 36 is probably the hardest thing I have ever done. Going in the classroom the first day, with all the younger kids there was very embarrassing. And I thought everyone was going to treat me differently because I was so much older. But I got there and after a few weeks I made some really good friends. And because I am a parent I was naturally picked to lead teams in theater class, and in English while work shopping.  I surprised myself by how quickly I adjusted to school life and I realized the gap between the ages really doesn’t apply to a group who are all working toward the same goal.
