back to school days

WOOHOOOO

OK I know it's silly but after 36 years I decided to go back to school. I have money that will disappear from the VA (1K a month) if I don't start this semester so I did it (it expires after 10 years of leaving the military.

I signed up, I registered, I re-tested my entrance exams. I scored for Honors English, go figure. I am going to take:

Business Law
College Algebra
Art Appreciation
Biology

Full time is going to be a bit of a challenge with my work load but then again I have some flexibility and 2 of my classes will be online.

I am actually excited and maybe even giddy....LOL

Yeah man. I will actually be finishing my degree when my son is entering college, if I go for my masters we can both pledge together at some fraternity...

I am sure there are many people who at the age of 36 decide to go back to school but could it be me or is it an absolute pain in the ass! I have been going to advisment, admission, testing, deans offices etc. for four weeks and school starts on Wednesday, I still don't know if I can even start.

I went to MDC.edu in the 80's late. I screwed around and did basically nothing of quality brought my gpa to a -254 or so and now I am paying for it. I went to advisors 3 times before they said "oh by the way you can't even go fulltime you are on academic suspension." This 18 years later, I am paying dearly and on academic suspension. So now I am scrambling to get amnesty to do this...almost makes me want to give up, 24 hours prior to starting. I dnot even have a schedule yet.

SHITTTTTTTT

Godamnit they postponed the final move in date to our new house I am sooo pissed.

Now we won't move in, quite possibly, until after Christmas! F%$K

Irishman in Oregon

So I get an email from a buddy in Oregon, we were stationed together in Seattle aboard a CG cutter. We actually didn't hang out together for too long but you know what..it didn't matter. He is such a genuine guy we just hit it off.
