For me it was continuing school after becoming pregnant with my son. I went all the way home to Cali sad and hurt, took a year and a half off, saved my money and moved back (baby in tow) to Louisiana to finish school despite EVERYONE telling me taking care of a baby and being in school would be impossible without family. Well I am doing Wonderful, graduating with honors In December, serving all mankind and living a great life. I sometimes wonder what I would be doing if I would have just stayed at home and gave up.

Wow! How reflective for me see this thread from last year I started, it made me grateful and proud to see how my "chances" have paid off.
Update: I did graduate with honors from Southern (go jags!)in December and am currently teaching 7th and 8th grade. I am finally engaged after 7 years with the same guy and serving mankind in the local grad chapter, in fact my undergrad chapter honored me as "Neophyte of the Year" for 2000-2001.
More Chances: In keeping with taking chances we are relocating to Houston in August from La. I have no family there, (well I have sorors), and we are just going! I am in grad school here at Southern but plan to pick up my program in Houston, so if there are any soros in the Houston area please email your soror with any helpful info on chapters or Houston in general I have tons of questions.
