Wrapping up second year with Western Governors' University, in the Teachers College for Social Sciences, and extraordinarily satisfied with it. Took me longer than I would have liked to actually start college for the whole purpose of actually learning something, since all my earlier trips (4) to college ended with early outs and dim, alcohol-scented-vomit-soaked memories, or ended due to lack of funding.

I envy you guys who had yourselves figured out coming out of high school. Me, I'm still not sure what I want to be when (if) I grow up.

Studied Geology/paleontology in Goettingen, Germany. Best time of my life. (Before s.o. asks no, military was not the best time of my life)

Greetings,

SDSU - Bachelors in Business.
While there I also attended DUI school, graduated, so now I can drink and drive.


Currently enrolled - School of hard knocks, 2.0 GPA. Class is fun but sometimes the lessons suck.

Dropped Out - Failing at Parenting U - Attended for 18 years, no diploma, still waiting for the final report card.

Thinking of becoming a CPA (Certified Public Alcoholic) I hear the curriculum is excellent and grades are easy.
