Education. It's Change You Choose.

Some change in life is unexpected and unwanted. Other change in life is desirable. Often, the difference lies in whether or not you choose to make the change. If the change feels like your choice, you embrace it and are excited by it. Education is one change that you do choose for yourself, and that you should find exciting.
