I want to go back to college. I have only take 2 college courses, but I made all A's. I would like to go back and study something, but I don't know what. When I went to college before, I studied introduction to specification control, hydrolics and pneumatics. I started a class on blue printing and something else, but I couldn't finish it because of the voices.

I really would like to study something in the working of factories, but I haven't been in a factory since 2000. I really liked specification control, but most factories teach that themselves. Anyway, I don't know if my Dr. will let me go back to factory work considering that's where I had my break down.

Vocational Rehabilitation says I have to get a note from my Dr. saying I am ready for rehabilitation before they can help me. I think going back to college would be good for me. I could study any one of a number of things, but I want something that will  I will be able to do with my arthritis. I'd like to study art, but there is no demand for that where I live. I want to become a productive member of society again.

College


College sounds like a great idea to keep your mind occupied. I wish you all the best with whatever you decide to study.

"If one advances confidently in the direction of one's dreams, and
endeavors to live the life which one has imagined, one will meet with
a success unexpected in common hours."

--Henry David Thoreau

Hello my friend. I found that quote just before I read your post and the comment you made on mine.

I am determined to continue on the path I've chosen. I wish the same for you. College sounds like it would help you greatly.

Take care.

Keep your feet on the ground, the sun on your face and the wind at your back. Live, love, laugh, learn, listen, David
