Putting your fears aside

So the more i think about going to school for the ichthyology or zoology, the more i really want to purse it.  I realize that I'm a not a "smart" person in a few areas.  But after talking with a few people about this i think i can totally give it a go.  I'm not saying i wont be horrible and flunk out of college, but if i can get it paid for why not try.  I don't want to have any regrets of things i wish i would have done.  Because right now i have tons of them.  I don't want my life to be full of wishes.  I feel its time to start taking action.  So I'm going to do my research, and find out what schools provide what i need, and tutoring and all that good stuff.  I have a learning disability when it comes to math, which that's always been the stopper for me.  I HATE math, and going into such a scientific field, well that scares me.  But i need to start facing my fears, and give it my best shot.  If i cant hack it,  well at least i will know that i tried.  What is meant to be will be....  A journey of a thousand miles starts with one step....  So i will be taking mine this fall hopefully
