Made it tough to continue at that point... Good luck with being a physiologist! I assume you like sports? It's never too late to be a wrestler... :-) Yeah, Chemistry kicked me hard as well :-) I wanted to be a teacher when I grew up; then I moved to the US and was not so confident in my English. I didn't want to stand up and teach and the kids go "huh? what?"... My parents wanted me to be an accountant just like my mom, I said OK and majored in Accounting. I finished it and worked in that field for 5 years after college. I survived but never liked it. So I decided to go back to school to change career, and now I'm in IT. Love it! Congrats on not giving up and pursuing your dream! -------------------- Check out my blogs, Friendo! Latin America, US Southwest and Beyond!
