Satisfaction

I received my Associate's Degree from BSU in the mail, today!

I know it's for crap, considering that I have nearly enough credits for a bachelor's degree, now, but it's a start. It's something, and it can't expire.
It took a year and a half of appeals, more appeals, appeals to appeal rejected appeals, frozen pizzas for my family once a week, a total of 4 schools, two additional tranfers of credits, a lot of crying, sacrificing nights home with my family, a horrendous online class from BSU to reestablish catalog calendar year, and 3 classes at NWACC to make up for Area II classes that would not transfer, but I got it.

It's just an Associate's, but it's mine. Yay!
I have proof for my children that their mother went to college.

You are never too old to learn.
