Going back to school!!!, How hard is it? Options

[Slick]

Well, after constant pressure from my fiancé, i'm starting college classes again, online. I know its going to be difficult because i have way too many distractions. I mean, i'm not really old, but I'm not a young kid either. I'm already over halfway through my career, but finishing my degree would make things easier for me career wise.

Anyone else been in this situation? Has anyone else felt helpless and lost? Any tips on getting through this as quickly and as painlessly as possible? I don't even know which course to start with!!

Thanks everyone for the comments.

I do regret not going to college right after high school but since I joined the Corps at 18, spent 10 years traveling the world, and now working in the world of Foreign Service while being posted somewhere in Africa, I feel a bit better knowing that I got quite a bit of experience as a trade off. Luckily my military credit counted towards my AA and i'm 3 classes short of completing it. But i know I still have a ways to go. And yes, it will all be online. Perhaps when I get towards the end of my BA I might go back to Washington to finish it off. Wish me luck!
