Today I had a chance to go down to the registrar at the college and finally fill out my graduation paperwork. I don’t really know why I slacked off last semester and didn’t do it then, but here I am now and its filled out.
What does this mean? It means I can officially call myself a college graduate. I worked hard over these past four years going to school and work, more than one job during most of it too. I earned an Associate of Applied Science degree in Computer Information Systems and an Associate of Science degree in Information Management. While I was at it, I earned a certificate in Web Administration too.
I have three other certificates I am working on. All I need is one class waivered per certificate and I will have all three to add to my list. They would be in Computer Networking, Computer Software Support, and Business Programming. I know my professor will waive these classes for me, I have taken almost every class in his department (not kidding). Also it’s not really my fault that the courses I am missing haven’t run in over five years. I hope I can meet with him soon to go over things and don’t have to wait until August to see him again.
I am off to do a little celebrating, very minor scale. Today was a really good day. Nice and sunny with a feeling of accomplishment in the air.
Congrats Joe! It’s a good thing to finish something you started.
