After learning how to appeal to take college courses while still in High School, and separately excelling in my volleyball career, I tried out for the college volleyball team as a senior in high school. Once making a spot on the team, I had to become a full time college student to be a collegiate athlete- while also being a full time High School student, as I still had courses to meet graduation requirements! Should I also mention I had 2 jobs?? Early morning shift as a coffee "barista" at the local cafe, and a weekend job as a respite worker for families with mentally challenged children. I look back and ask myself, how did I ever pull this off. I was on the go from 4:30am to 10:30pm every weekday (5-10am Barista, 11-12:30pm Berkeley, 1-3 High School, 3:30-7 Volleyball practice, 7:30-10 College classes.) Perhaps this provided the juggling skills needed to be in client service :) Or better yet, prep me for when I will become a mom.
