Tonight was my graduation night folks, I'm officially out of high school. Pretty amazing that 4 years of school was ended with just an hour long ceremony, and with that hour long ceremony also ends 4 years of many friendships. Nonetheless, I'm still very excited to be starting college in the fall.

Ain't that the truth....as long as my University lets me back I'll be giving it all 25% effort to pass my courses. I got a 14 in financial accounting but I guess it'll be easier the second time through. Especially since I'll be going to class this time, probably
Surprisingly, calculus and microeconmics are my best courses, while history, psych, philosophy, etc give me trouble. I think I just suck at writing essays.

I will give you advice based on my experience. I partied hearty for two years and left college with about a 2.05.
My last semester I took "Math appreciation" a 5.0 hour coarse to raise my party-induced GPA. One flaw in my plan, it was daily at 7:30 am. Needless to say I didnt attend too much and got a "D" actually lowereing my GPA.
Twenty years later, with a wife and small son, I took five years of night classes while working a fulltime job to finish two years of college.
Clearly not the way to do it!
Have fun, but realize that college will set the table for the rest of your life. Make a mistake here and you could pay for it the rest of your life.
congrats dude. this is the time when you get truly WASTED.
