I got my cap and gown today, so I'm all set to graduate. I am even going to graduate with honors! I'm pretty proud of that. Just a few weeks left and I'm done with these stupid classes and I'll have my associates. I know, I'm only going to be half way done with school, but I'm still pretty proud of myself. I was talking to my mom yesterday, she's in college too, and we were discussing how the professors make the assignments and tests so different from each other, it makes no sense. Then with all the things they make you learn, it makes you wonder if it's worth going through all that for a degree. I told my mom, that to get into the system and make a difference it's going to take us getting by and learning the crap they teach. That's about the only way you can get a job that will make a difference, and try to make changes to a system that could definitely use some changes. My mom is having a hard time, dealing with some of the things they are making her learn, it's definitely in opposition with the way she believes. Her convictions are telling her this is wrong, but there is no way of getting a degree in what she wants to get a degree in without taking the classes she is in. I'm looking to go into the same field she is, which means that I will have to face the same dilemma's she is, and it makes it definitely difficult to make it through, or even want to attempt to make it through. The only thing that makes it worth trying to get through it, is that the Lord needs people in place to do His works, and this seems to be the only way. That's the only reason it would even be remotely worth it to go through what the world is trying to indoctrinate into the heads of students these days.

That is great. I agree with Courtney you should be very proud.
Hey Michelle, that's awesome, you should be very proud!! As far as the classes, I know that you're a christian and I believe that you know in your heart what is right and wrong. Trust that your faith will guide you through, no matter how hard it might be! I'm with Court, I know you're gonna do great things in life!! Keep your faith and stay strong and you'll be fine!!! :)
Your determination shines through in everything you do...first your weight loss and now graduating with honors. You set your mind to it and made it happen. You have so much to be proud of. I don't know what classes you're taking that are challenging your faith, but like I told Seth and Kevin as they were about to leave home to join the military...always remember who you are, where you came from, and what you believe. If you do that, you'll be fine..... :)
Yay! How awesome!
You will do great at whatever you put your mind to. I am sure you will be a shining light as well. Have fun graduating!
