When I first went back to school for my BA(now I'm in grad school), I used to obsess about how old I'd be when I completed school and finished my internship. I realized I was looking at it backwards. Now I don't see how old I will be when I finish, but what I will have accomplished by the time I turn x amount of years. I got my BA at 44, and will have my MA at 46. The fact is, we will age regardless of what we choose to do, or not do. I can either be 46 with my masters or 46 without it. I chose with! My only suggestion is to make sure you are pursuing something you are passionate about. That's what keeps me going when it all seems overwhelming. Having that passion drive me makes it mean something much more than just a degree.
