I need to attend 10 more classes (and pass this course) to receive my bachelor’s degree. I already walked with my graduating class, which was wonderful. I’m so close I can taste it! (I’m on the left.)

So tired of credit card debt!
9 months ago

I’m also reading everything I can, and learning Hebrew.
