It would be hard for me because I know I spent a lot time to study and it costs me a lot too. But I personally believe that we all need money, but I would also want to pick the major that I would enjoy in and which would make me proud. For instance, I like to help others…

She also mentioned that these classes were offered free by Golden Living Centers.…
Murphy’s Law states that “in any field of endeavor, anything that can go wrong will go wrong.” Yes, this is a bit of a morose thought. But, it is true nonetheless. This “happy” theory most often shows itself in my life within my writing career. Not so much in things “going wrong.”…
