Wink Reached my first goal

Yipee!! yahoo!!


Sorry for yelling I am just soooo happy. One of my goal for a long time has been to get 60 credits. With my CLEP Intro to Psyc pass today I did it!

Several years ago when the superintendent of my local school system said to me Why don't you apply to be a substitute I was embarrassed to say because I don't qualify. Finally today at least 5 years later I was so proud to walk into the school and ask for an application to be a substitute.

Anyone who is struggling to keep spirits up and continue studying let me tell you, it is not easy to do at my age, but the feeling of accomplishment is wonderful.

I took my first college course beginning in Aug of 1972. It may have taken me a very long time, but today I scheduled my last CLEP. the knowledge that my next goal my AA degree is that close is indiscribable.

Keep your head up and keep going, the personnal satisfaction is wonderful.
