When I was about 5 ,I decided what career I would of taken on by this time.
Nurse, Teacher, Chef.
Those were all I ever wanted to be.
By middle school I enrolled on a nursing program , attended 'the trojans' = USC for a few classes.
I wasn't an honor roll kid, but I was determined.
But by then things slowly were taken a toll on me..
I let it get the best of me & kinda left all that on the back burner.
10th grade came around.
I wanted something different from what I had been going through so in chances of me staying as far away from the place we reside in & from all the crap I was doing, I considered basketball.
My friend had been practicing for tryouts.
Mentioned it to me several times.
"C'Mon Edith, let's try out for the team & if we don't make it at least we were there for support. :D"
Once I check out the dates, I knew those chances were gone.
Tryouts were on the same day AND time I had to either be at court or sessions.
But now, NOW I've come to realize I was given the chance to become all three .
Not by corporate but by HIM .
:D
At this point I'm thankful for the delay.
