graduate from college

I got my associates :) Now on to my bachelors! So crazy how I looked into the future and thought this was such a distant goal and now I made it! 3 days ago

I passed all my classes this semester (A,A,B,C)! I was really worried about that B, I was sure I failed. Anyway, I also got my money (grants and loans) to finish and pay for my last six classes; 4/6 have been scheduled and secured but I still need to re-register for the others on May 28th. I will be taking 4 of them over the summer and 2 in the Fall . 4 days ago

It is finally finished! 5 days ago

I don’t know why I had not put this as a goal before. Either way, I graduate on Sunday and just found out yesterday that I’ve been accepted to grad school! Yay! 1 week ago

One of the most awesome and scary things that ever happened to me :) 2 weeks ago

Went to the advisor today and figured out exactly which (6) classes that I have left to graduate. Although I have to take two classes in the fall, it will give me time to get teacher certified and maybe even find a good placement. I want to teach younger kids in lower income districts so that I can get my loans paid back. That’s the plan anyway. 1 month ago

Took a while but DID IT! With flying colors – it may have taken me longer than others but I NEVER gave up and that is something I am so deeply proud of. 2 months ago

So I’m in my final year at St. John’s and only really need to finish up this last semester strong and pass my oral exam…so close! Sadly it looks like I’ll also have to wait before I can get my diploma; I still owe $1500 that my family and I haven’t been able to scare up. It seems like such a small amount, it’s so frustrating! But I guess it won’t be a huge deal, I’ll just work for a year before graduate school and earn the money to get it, I just feel like my rocking GPA should have done that :((( boo. 2 months ago

Awesome feeling of complete freedom… almost. :)
It took me 4 and a half years. 9 semesters, that’s what my career lasts. 4 months ago

Well, I’ve managed to miraculously pass a class that I had only one more opportunity to retake before forcing myself to switch a major or dropout of college, so I am very, very relieved. Now, I have to find a way to get no less than a B or an A in every last remaining class that I have left. I need to end college w/a bang; I can’t keep living my life so irresponsibly & messy. 5 months ago
