WOOHOO!!!!!!!!!!
 

I just got off the phone with the History Secretary, and definitely, for-sure I am going to complete my Masters Degree this semester! Best-case, I just do my thesis. Worst-case, I do my thesis and one 400-level elective.

YAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!


Been working at this thing since 2005. So, provided I don't die before May, I'll have an MA!

Well congratulations!

YAY. :yeah:

I've thought about going back for my Masters, I could do it here at Sac State. Maybe some day. :terrsmile:

That's awesome, Rid, Congrats! :clap: :up: It'll be nice to have it done and over with, huh?

I have about three years of college under my belt, but no degree. Got in debt, and I'm scared to go back. :P Maybe one day when I have more financial stability, and courage, I'll go back and get some type of degree.

Congratulations! :bloogrin:

Great job, amigo.

Now go out there and show those academic types who's boss.

I know you're looking forward to getting that MA. Way to go, bud!!! :yeah:

Well, let's look at my Goals Checklist, all of which is in no particular order:




Complete High School

Complete College

Get a girlfriend

Find a stable, steady, useful, fulfilling career

Complete my Masters Degree

Complete my Doctorate

Get married

Complete Doomsday Device

Become the Lord of Terror

Am I to guess the italics indicate what you've already done? ;) I still think that's all great. As for the non-italicized, they'll happen for you someday. Including maybe the last one, keep trying. :bendy:

it's a pity that this forum doesn't support the [s][/s] strikethrough option.

It does, it's the http://www.fosters-home.com/forum/im...ikethrough.gif symbol next to the spoiler tag.

Like this.

Fixed!

Update!

There was a slipup in my paperwork, and I DO have to take an elective course. However, the professor who agreed to chair my thesis just gave me an in to an undergrad-level elective that ties into my thesis. I'm looking at a summer graduation!

Well that's a bit of a bummer, I'm sorry. I'm glad to hear it's still happening though, and without too much inconvenience. Way to go, Rid! :up:

Summer still doesn't sound too bad. Any idea of when the graduation is?

Many congrats to you there Rid, depsite the slight slip-up. As the well-repeated saying goes, "It's about time!" :)

Well, by the time Iw as able to enroll for a new class, all the classes were full. My thesis committee chair gave me an in to one of his classes that will directly help my thesis, which is good...

...But in all of this, I missed the window to pay for tuition in installments. Thus, I had to get the money out of my savings. Because it's a different bank, they sent a check, and I spent about a week attending classes without being officially enrolled. I finally made it in with three days to spare.


YAY
