Done

Yesterday was an eventful day, I arrived at the school 5 minutes late, quickly changed into my cap and gown, and walked in front of a good 200+ strangers so I could get that diploma. No more public school system for me. Time to shift paths and focus on a new adventure: College.

Congratulations! The fun will soon begin and in a year or two you will forget all about your high school days. I remember my kids - they were all so excited at graduation and thought it would always be the highlight of their life. So soon they forget, and college becomes the big thing - they don't even go to the high school reunions after a few years.

Congrats! Time to take the summer off, then a few frantic weeks of prepping for college. You going away for college or are you close enough to live at home?

Haha, sweet! What are you planning to study?

I'm out of college in December. Woot! It went really fast and I wish I had had more of a social life (that's hard to do as an engineer). Don't forget about that.

Best of luck to you!

I know ~25yrs ago when I was in your shoes, I got an AAS in Mechanical Engineering Technology, was fortunate enough to join the workforce and have employers pretty much pay for my Bachelor's.

As long as you've got a goal to keep pecking away at, you're good to go. You've probably had your fill of advise at this point, but what ever degree you want to work towards, keep it as general as possible or atleast be willing to apply it towards a broad range of job opportunities.
