...after 1,407 days, 46 1/2 months, 8 regular and 4 summer semesters, and barring any sort of disaster on either of today's two finals (I suppose it could happen in my last one), I'm now DONE WITH COLLEGE! :D :D

To be honest, it sucked at times, but it wasn't all that hard. All that is left to do is wait for my last two grades to see if I'll graduate with honors, get my diploma mailed to me in August, and walk in December. Yeeaah. :cool:

Through the many years of reading your posts, it appears to me that you did not let your classes get in the way of your education.

Good job! :thumbup:

Now that you are granulating, the pressure begins. If fact, you may feel a subtle tightening in your chest as the pressure begins... Just slip on that yoke and harness and start pulling. You only have 30yrs or so of it to look forward to, so it's not too bad. Oh, by the way, you did take a few semester of Chinese didn't you...? :laugh:

Pfft, I took 22 credit hours (6 days a week, 2 nights) this past spring, and it wasn't hard. Got my best GPA ever that semester. Perhaps Stu would like to fill in on how easy things were at times. ;)

BTW: Congratulations!

I echo that statement. But in the same token offer big sincere congratulations.

I look back on college...yeah, I really didn't take much away from it...learned basically nothing other than how to stretch a virtually zero budget into a never ending beer supply (and how to decoratively turn empty hard cardboard box long-neck Busch Light cases into end-tables for the couch).

Hopefully times are different for you then they were for me when I gradueated college. I.E...employers were not hiring people with a specialized/centralized degree like Marketing.

Where am I now?

I graduated as an English major from the U of Iowa. I now do technical and computer based consultation work for hospital pharmacy and nursing staffs. Yep...that English degree came in realllllllllll handy.

A heartfelt "CONGRATULATIONS!!!" Sean!

Now go out and get a job and start paying taxes like the rest of us so my neighbor can continue to pay for her groceries with food stamps and have even more kids and pile them all into her big, shiney Lexus SUV. :shakehead

Welcome to the real world!

Are you referring to the time we got drunk and broke a light in the business building basement?

Or the times we played PS2 in an empty room on a 90 inch screen thanks to the CSU projectors?

Or all those hours spent at Becky's (the neighborhood bar, you think OGORMAN would spend time with a chick?) instead of in class.

I'm confused as to what you are referring to.

Anyone want to buy my old books? ;)

I doubt I'll get money for more than 2-3 of those books (over half of them have been sitting for some time), but it was amusing to write the descriptions for them.

New Lexus, huh? And free food?! Is she single?

Ya know, I'm not asking for myself. It's uh... for a friend. I just let him use my email sometimes.
