Finished 1st term of college

[mddubya]

Whewwwww, finished my 1st term of college.

I'm taking one of those accelerated schedules. 6 week terms, dayum, mid-terms after 3 weeks, finals after 6, :faintthud

But it looks like I'm going to end up with an A in both classes !!!!!

I get a 2 week break before my next classes start, hopefully I can get my boat finished during this break, then right back at the books. This accelerated schedule takes up more time than I had anticipated.

I'm barely able to squeeze in 9 holes a day,

Face it, only reason you got As is the lack of poon.

Still, way to go dude!

Sadly, after 22 years of marriage, you're closer to right than I wish.

But thanks anyway Jeff !

Huge congrats!!! I finished a similar accelerated program in '03 for my MBA, and you're right... it drains your time considerably. I had a lot of nights where I'd hit the sack at 1:00 and be up and at it again at 5:00 before I went to work.

Pretty amazing how much easier pulling good grades are when you actually give a damn about the outcome, huh???

Congrats again... it'll all be worth it when it's over.

Way to go. Your on your way up. And remember, the great thing about virtual college is Spring Break is only a click away.

Ain't that the truth, in HS I was barely able to maintain a high enough GPA to stay on the football team,

Excellent point, now, about that Golf Team,

Good job.............keep it up. YOU DA' MAAAN !!!!

Thanks Sssmokin, I needed that, :thumbs up:

Go to any virtual frat parties yet? :faintthud

 

[ClairefromClare]

Cool--first dean's list, then is Phi Beta Kappa far behind?

Frats, gah there isn't much I loathe more than frats.

That's pretty harsh Jeff. I had to work 30 to 40 hrs a week with a full load to get through school. If it hadn't been for a frat and set social stuff I would have been bored to tears. Maybe things have changed but my group were just a bunch of good guys.

Congrats MD, sounds like you're doing great.

Hey, there's exceptions to every rule, and this is solely my paradigm, but every frat I've seen at my local Univ, and the other one in the state, and many many others, have just been cesspools of crap.

Of course, maybe part of that is my mentality that I'm not spending thousands and thousads of dollars a year to party. I can do that without wasting my education.

Ok, then things have changed. Long ago, back in the days before fire I could belong to frat and live in the house for about the same as renting an apartment. It was just a way for me to have a social life since I had no time to hang around campus.

Ahhh yeah, not so much anymore. Huge hazing rituals, each one of our specific frats have frequent run ins with the law, things like that. Tis a shame.

Still Dubya, we could make a frat!

Congrats Dub!
