So, I haven't posted much about this as I wasn't sure I wanted to go public with it, but I need some outsider advice from people who aren't personally involved in my life.
Last year, I asked for some advice in regards to returning to school. I've mentioned the falling out with my dad on here a few times and last year he offered to pay for my schooling even though we are not on talking terms. Well... one of my greatest fears of taking this deal was met. This semester is the last one funded by the school savings fund that he was supposedly putting money into. I do not know if he is just unaware, if it is purposeful or whatnot, but I'm not comfortable with approaching him about it.
It leaves me with two options: Continue with school and get loans/pay what I can/begrudgingly take what help my mom offers (she needs to save for retirement!!) OR seriously consider taking a different path and really giving my dreamdream a go.
I've got about 4 years left of school to hopefully land in the conservation field. With loosing this funding, I could not afford to finish a double major. I would have to drop Biology down to a minor which could affect my chances at a career in the chosen field. My other option is to seriously explore becoming a cowhorse trainer and living my absolute dream. There are risks and hard work to each, but I just need some advice and guidance. I've gone over it a million times in my head and have pros and cons for each choice. My family really wants to see me stay in school, but maybe this was a sign I need to pursue a different path.
