Chutzpah: Higher Education

ChutzpaChutzpah. This is a word that is used often by myself because sometimes I just can’t believe what people do. I mean really! I thought it would be fun to share our Chutzpah moments. The only rules are no names of stores, people, or events. You may also not use inappropriate language. Leave a comment listing your favorite Chutzpah moment! I mean laughter is the best medicine.

chutzpah Or khutspe. Nerve, extreme arrogance, brazen presumption. In English, chutzpah often connotes courage or confidence, but among Yiddish speakers, it is not a compliment.

It is true.  I am going back to school. I think I have lost my mind. I mean I have three kids and a 24 hour 7 day a week business. I have always wanted to be able to take a really great picture. I have a nice camera that my husband bought using airline miles. I have some really awesome lenses. I bought them using money I won on Superpoints. I thought why not spend that free money (Superpoints cash) on my dream to be a photographer?  I cashed out for Paypal cash so I can go to class.  I do not wish to be a working photographer. I just want to be able to take a good picture. A picture which tells a story. I am currently working on making sure my fingers are not in the way and my pictures are not dark. I have decided to take some time for myself and improve my photos because preserving memories is really important to me. I look forward to starting school and learning something new. I believe knowledge is power and maybe once I am good at photography, I can use my talent to help someone else. I look forward to sharing what I learn with you.

What do you aspire to do?  How are you making it happen?
