A new Chapter

Who says you can't change your life's direction at 28? That's exactly what I am doing. It's a little scary I must admit but also so exciting! Lots of work to be done, lots of study and having to give up a lot of things over the next 4 years but in the end I will be where I want to be. In a job I enjoy!
When I finished high school back in 99 and it came to point where we had to decide what we wanted to do in terms of Uni or tafe courses, the last thing I wanted to do was go back to school. I also had no idea what I wanted to do, why waste my money on a course that I just wasn't in too? I think it is ridiculous to ask a 17 or 18 year old what they want to do with the rest of their life. Here is Australia at the age of 18 we are legally allowed to drink so most people that age just want to go out and party at that age. I know I did.
It took me 10 years and the loss of 30kgs and reading the book Anti Cancer to realise Nutrition was what really interested me and something I enjoyed talking about and reading up on. So I took the plunge found a course in Nutritional Medicine and am now doing it by correspondence which is pretty exciting and scary all at the same time.
I feel a relief, one of the things I have been searching for, for the last 10 years has finally been found. It feels like I have purpose again and a path to travel, I no longer wander around aimlessly bumping into brick wall after brick wall.
I'm really looking forward to the new chapter of my life. The next stage, all I need now is to find the man of my dreams (lol) and everything will be where it needs to be.
