An Idea

Salam!

Bismillah

This is sort of in response to the last post I guess.

The last few hours I've been seriously considering deferring my scholarship for next semester until the next fall.

PROS:
1. I will get a break next semester to do something BESIDES school.
2. I will have a light at the end of the tunnel to encourage me to finish out this semester.

CONS:
1. What if I decide to never go back to school?
2. What if I get out of practice and suck at school when I get back?

I'm really not sure what to think about it... it sounds good but maybe there are things I'm not taking into consideration.

What do you guys think?!?

P.S. If I don't go to school next semester I will probably find a job inshaAllah like substitute teaching, working in an office or something along those lines.

salam aleykoum! i would advice you to continue until you are done. Once you're out of school its very hard to get back to it...especialy if u work and start making money. Just an advice from my personal experience...

That's a tough one. Its hard to go back when you quit completely. Maybe you could take one class just so you're forced to be on campus occasionally.
And of course its a good idea to pray ishtikhara too!

I'm sure I posted a comment... It's not there... Man, did I do it wrong or it hasn't gone through moderation yet? If it's the second one, please reject this comment! :P

Good luck with your decision!

OK, so there's no moderation! Must be my own problem about not getting my comment posted.

I think a semester off can be a good thing for a lot of people! Most people I know who went this route went back to their studies. My brother is one who hasn't yet, but wants to. Just doesn't know what to go into just now.

If you're serious about studying and you don't find a very big reason to not go (like me with having a child), you will certainly go back. Keep away from getting pregnant and signing a job contract that lasts too long are my tips!
