Default Re: 1 year/almost pooh-bah post(very long, probably boring)

This is one of the best of these kinds of posts I've ever read.

If you need a little nudge to stay in school, maybe this will help.

I just graduated with a BS in Computer Science this past July, after going on and off for -- no joke -- 17 years. Almost every single day since I got to shake the dean's hand I am truly grateful that I finished. It makes my day better to know that I did that after such a long time. I never had that feeling the many intermediate years when I never took a class. Sometimes I was ambivilent, sometimes I felt guilty, sometimes anxious. But never happy & relieved. If you finish school, maybe it will make some random Thursday a little better for you too.
