I prefer home-schooling because you can work at your own pace and go towards more what you're interested in, whether it be history or geography or math.

I used to have all these plans and think “Ah, I have my whole life figured out”, but then I realized no matter how much I plan: life happens! So I find myself living day to day trying to do my best, embracing every moment as a learning opportunity and chance to get to know myself a little more.
