Normal or Crazy life?

Hm, surprised I never replied to this topic.
At this point my life is finally on the up-and-up after being pretty stagnant for the last few years. So, as of right now I'm more interested in seeing what my immediate future is like. It won't be glamorous like I had hoped - I wanted to be an Economist, but I'm not attending college and I work at Walmart - but I can still manage to make something of my life, yet.
I guess I could be worse off, and there would theoretically be that chance in your scenario. I've spent too many years in that somewhat "worse case scenario" so I think I'd rather take my chances as I have them now. It can only get better at this point. I guess I should answer this question again in a few months time.

do you think you might go back to school? i've had friends and family that have taken time off and finished it at a different pace than others, but sometimes that's for the best.

At this point I don't think I want to. I'd have to save up so much money because it would be very difficult for me to get scholarships and grants this late in the game, and even if they went by previous records I slacked off so bad my Senior year that my GPA was tarnished, or at least down to an average of only about 2.7 where I was maintaining closer to a 3.6~3.7 my Freshman and Sophomore years. According to my school, since there is surprisingly no universal GPA scale, was about a B- my Senior year and mostly As in first two years.
Besides that, as unglamorous as it sounds, there is actual good potential to have a decent career at Wal-Mart. At least, it is an option I should give serious consideration towards.
I won't rule out going back to school at this point in my life, but I'm not expecting I ever will.

Honestly I love my way of life as it is now and I wouldn't want it any other way. But if I had to choose one crazy thing I'd love to do it would probably to become a sharpshooter for the Marines (I already own several military issued sniper rifles so thats one of the reasons why)
