Graduation
I am such a good blogger. I graduated in August, and it only took me a month to post this.
The coolest thing for me about graduating is how quickly I was able to finish. Originally, I thought it would take 5 years to finish, and I thought that was pushing it, because one semester I would need to take 4 classes. So my class load when like this, Fall 2005: 2, Spring 2006: 4, Summer 2006: 4, Fall 2006: 5, Spring 2007: 6, Summer 2007: 2. Thats it, done! Instead of taking 5 years, I took 2.
Something that impressed my wife was that I graduated Magna Cum Laude, which means she probably graduated only Cum Laude
I went back to school because I disliked my job, and I felt it was holding me back from finding another position. I am sure this was true, but I am glad that I went back and finished my degree. I learned a lot and was exposed to different ways of looking at problems. Also, a lot of time was drudging through BS, but in the future, I will not be filtered out by HR for not having a degree, which is a much worse type of BS to put up with.
Maybe in six months I will post another graduation announcement.
