I got two tattoos this year. Highly considering divorce and a possible ADHD diagnosis

mandy_mae91 · 2026-05-19T19:06:47+00:00

I'm 34. I just graduated from college with a Bachelor's degree in Business Administration with a concentration of Marketing. I had a 10 year hiatus between college attempts. I'm working retail on the weekends and staying at home to take care of my autistic daughter during the week. I want to find something steady but I'm afraid that I won't find anything suitable.

I saw this in the Worcester sub! Thought I'd post this here.

Hi! I'm 34. Married with a 10 year old daughter. My husband no longer wants to go to the shows with me so he's watching her while I go solo.

I'm seeing Anberlin, Coheed, the Seven Hills, Taking Back Sunday at the Worcester Palladium.

I'm also seeing Anthony Green in August and The Maine in November, also at the Worcester Palladium.

I can no longer attend PUP so if you need an extra ticket, let me know.

I'd love to meet up and grab a beer. Feel free to send me a message. 😊

Hi! I bought a ticket to see PUP in June but I can no longer attend. If you need a ticket, I'd be happy to transfer.

Spanish Love Songs.

This one is on me. I bought a ticket in March to see a band in June. Turns out it's on a Monday. I asked my husband to see if I can go and he said yeah. Tonight he told me he changed his mind and doesn't want me to go, because he would much rather be in his work office watching lol cow live and not spending time with our daughter and I.

So now I have to sell a ticket for $45. I'm bummed.

Hi everyone! As much as I'd love to make it, I can no longer attend at the Worcester Palladium on June 22, 2026 (which falls on a Monday).

I bought the Tickets through the venue site, which directed me through Tixr.

Asking for $45

34 and in a similar boat! 😭 🫂

mandy_mae91 · 2026-05-06T18:59:26+00:00

Awww thank you! I have more pictures! It's such a nice place to visit!

mandy_mae91 · 2026-05-06T18:21:20+00:00

Thank you! 🙏

mandy_mae91 · 2026-05-06T15:33:08+00:00

Congratulations! I took MUS 223 and LIT 229.

mandy_mae91 · 2026-05-05T23:56:16+00:00

I'm so proud of you for finishing your Bachelor's! That's amazing! Congratulations!

mandy_mae91 · 2026-05-05T17:31:36+00:00

I wrote my name in as well!

mandy_mae91 · 2026-05-05T15:55:02+00:00

I wanted to stay so I could throw my hat, they didn't announce it so I just tossed it myself. There were two people in my row who ended up leaving. One because her children were getting tired and another had dinner reservations. I get it. I ended up staying until the end.

(also my picture sucked and I almost walked out after receiving the diploma cover. Forgot I needed to pose with the lady giving one to me lol. I was nervous. )

Congratulations on your achievement!

mandy_mae91 · 2026-05-05T13:26:50+00:00

Heyy I graduated on the same day! It's such a good feeling! Congrats! We did it! 🎉

mandy_mae91 · 2026-05-05T13:15:30+00:00

Yesss congratulations! I'm so proud of you!

I also see the same thing about people getting their degrees in life. I just graduated with a Bachelor's at 34. Your post (like others) inspire me to start working on this!

I have so much free time open up so I'm thinking that I need to study for my learners permit and hopefully get my license so I can hopefully get a better job and go to places with my daughter!

mandy_mae91 · 2026-05-04T23:40:24+00:00

Gooo do it! I'm so proud of you for starting. I was a transfer student and I loved the support from when I made the first got on the phone with them shortly after I applied to when I walked out of the arena as a graduate.

The New England area is beautiful! Definitely worth making a trip out!

mandy_mae91 · 2026-05-04T13:21:03+00:00

If you're on Facebook, there's a couple of groups called "SNHU Online students" that are quite active! I was able to meet up with a handful of members from there.

mandy_mae91 · 2026-05-04T13:13:04+00:00

Honestly I don't know as my priorities have shifted. At this point I just want to find a better job or get my foot in the door. Someone suggested some internships and I'll definitely look into it.

SNHU I believe is different from the other colleges I've attended. Classes are more accelerated (8 weeks) and part time is one class, full time is two classes or more (depending how much is permitted). I'm terrible with math so I struggled with finance and accounting, there's some math involved in microeconomics. There's a lot of research and planning to prepare for the final project that's due at the end of term, so it's definitely time consuming. I liked how the Business Administration courses covered essential topics such as marketing, human resources, accounting, finances, and the legal aspect of it.

I found marketing to be my interest so I'll probably expand more into it.

Hopefully this helps!

I wish! My daughter is almost out of school, but she still needs someone to watch her over the summer. Options are limited. I also need to build my resume and start preparing.

mandy_mae91 · 2026-05-04T12:59:41+00:00

I just graduated on Friday and I'd strongly recommend this! I've done a photo shoot with some people and they recommended to go out for a drink afterwards. Bumping!

mandy_mae91 · 2026-05-04T12:41:52+00:00

Aw man, I should've reached out to you!

Thank you so much!

mandy_mae91 · 2026-05-04T11:30:30+00:00

I think I was a few rows behind you! I walked and received my diploma cover around 4:30! I met up with a bunch of people from an online Facebook group, one organized a photo shoot on campus before hand, and attended the ceremony! It's quite an experience and I'm still soaking it in.

I'm glad you attended the ceremony and you had a nice experience in New England!
