Geri Ferrell:  

ful, getting my degree in less than the normal 4 years. But had I been smart, I would have gone straight through until I earned my masters, since trying to do it now is a struggle. Workplace When I first started out I was much too naive and shy. It wasn't easy. Had I been more assertive at work + home, I'd be far more successful+ self-assured today. Most of my job choices were BIG, BIG mistakes - I would have been better off looking more before accepting a position where I hated to get up in the morning to go to work. But I feel blessed with my current job, and pray it goes on until I can't do it anymore. Military I wish I was still active duty. What I did, and why I was I doing it actually made a difference, and for the first and only time in my life, I felt accepted and acceptable. I miss it terribly. But just as in the days of high school, I was too hard-headed and stupid to realize at the time that those were the best days of my life.
