Graduate!

I just found out I did all the work to earn my math AA. I am so grateful to my friends in the department for letting me know early. I don't have to go to Baltimore with doubts. My performance was much less than par this semester if you couldn't tell by the posts. I guess I can take that countdown timer down.
I do wonder how I did in physics, that was what kept me from much of the math. (Update, I got an A in physics)

I didn't think I would be this emotional when I found out. I don't even really know what to say. I guess I could say what I'm thinking.

I am thinking about the classes I went through at Flo, and how much I care for and appreciate my teachers. I'm thinking about the study groups and help I got from the other students. I'm thinking about the relationships I built there.

There is a sign in the hallway of the Math and Science building that says, "St. Louis Community College changes lives everyday". It sure has changed mine. I wasn't even a good student prior to going there. Now, it is one of my favorite places to be.

I hope I passed physics so I can have one more semester there.

I have been taking classes for so many years and 5 different schools. I wondered if this would ever happen. I guess time passes no matter what you do with it. You keep going through the motions knowing and hoping sometime something will happen. Today something happened.

I guess now I get to work on my bachelors. :)

Today, I love life!

It is great to hear that the folks at STLCC-FV did such a good job in helping you - It is nice to hear positive stories -

On a second note - Did you resolve your issue with transcripts from STLCC?

I work for STLCC and would like to make sure that this is resolved quickly.
