QuothTheDragon Posted August 11, 2015 Report Share Posted August 11, 2015 As of Sunday night, I'm done with school forever!!! I completed the last two classes I needed for my Masters degree in Software Engineering. It's been a long two years, but it's finally over! The best part is I'll have more time and energy to devote to eating healthy and working out! 5 Quote Wandering Monk Starting Weight: 238 Current Weight: 189.2 Goal Weight: 150 PRs Mile: 12:49 (11/1/14) 5K: 44:07 (3/13/16) Link to comment

bim Posted August 12, 2015 Report Share Posted August 12, 2015 I've been outta grad school for years and still occasionally have dissertation defense nightmares.Wow, can I relate to this! I got my Master's in the 90s, and I still have nightmares about failing, testing in, or making up some math class I've forgotten I was enrolled in. Or redoing high school completely, as an adult. :shudder:QuothTheDragon, congratulations!!!

QuothTheDragon Posted August 12, 2015 Author Report Share Posted August 12, 2015 Oh wow! That's such a fantastic way to celebrate - totally not what I was expecting to hear. I hope you have fun!I've wanted to learn piano since I was a kid, so what better time than now? Woot! I've been outta grad school for years and still occasionally have dissertation defense nightmares.Wow, can I related to this! I got my Master's in the 90s, and I still have nightmares about failing, testing in, or making up some math class I've forgotten I was enrolled in. Or redoing high school completely, as an adult. :shudder:QuothTheDragon, congratulations!!! I didn't have to do a dissertation (thankfully), but I did have to do a capstone (it was a more professionally-geared Masters program). I might have nightmares about that eventually. Seriously though, my brain was a jerk about being finished. Classes were online, so everything had to be in Sunday at midnight. I was done at 7:30 pm, but my brain kept going "Are you SURE you turned everything in? Like, 100%-ABSOLUTELY-POSITIVELY-SURE? You should go check again, just in case." Wow, software engineering, that must be such a competitive field! Congratulations!!It's a pretty awesome field It can be competitive depending on your experience, skills, and location. Around me, they can't seem to stop hiring people haha. 1 Quote Wandering Monk Starting Weight: 238 Current Weight: 189.2 Goal Weight: 150 PRs Mile: 12:49 (11/1/14) 5K: 44:07 (3/13/16) Link to comment
