So cool. You're never too old to learn. And you're definately never too old to learn about things you like to do! Have fun!

 

[tangman99]

That is way cool! I have my degree, but I still take courses every now and then just for the knowledge and sometime just for fun.

School isn't that bad! I'm 24 and STILL have at least one more year ahead of me. I've been in college for ALMOST 5 years. Gettin' pretty tired of it. Took me a whileto decide on a major. I finally decidedon commercial realestate. This space bar is notworking!!! I am NOT a computer major-I HATE EM!!!

Best of luck. After spending TENS of thousands of dollars on a private school education and earning a BS in psychology, religion and Spanish, I am starting part-time next semester for a degree in chemistry and physics. Again good luck and never stop learning.

Thirty-three years old, have a BS in biology and Near Eastern Studies, MS in Biochemistry, and then went into education. In two weeks I start a PhD program in education.
There are some of us who were simply born to be students.
Good luck to us all, and here's to continuing education -- it keeps us young!

Thats cool dude. I keep thinking about it, but it would mean less money for my saltwater hobby.

About to do the same thing after my extended (4 years) gap year. LOL, don't advise having study nights with other sw fans. Might spend more time talking about the tanks instead!

Good Luck

Way to go NM, I'm 27 and in my third year so I know how you feel. I could have done it quicker If I was not deployed so often though

Rock on - I keep wanting to go back to school but my wife says I can't go back to school to make less money than I do now!!
DVS - I think you should figure out what you want to do and do it before you get set in your ways and have other responsibilities
ATTML - never figured that out - hmm I work for one of your competitors - We run really fast over short distances .... ahem ....

Awesome Congrats! (One of my favorite people here in my dept is twice my age--he and his wife re-evaluated their lives together so he quit his engineering management job to get a phd and she quit her accounting job to go to masseuse school. They rock--the youngun's you meet will be psyched to glean real world knowledge from you, so don't be shy to share it )
