I can see the degree mountain top!
#1
I just successfully completed the Rise & Fall of the Soviet Union this evening. I'm now 8 credits away from completing my BS degree. April 1st begins my
10th month at this effort. I started out last July with a mere 3 credits in my pocket and a goal of adding a few credits. In December I was awarded my AS degree. I'm hoping to finish my BS before the end of April.

I don't usually post my wins but I'm a little excited tonight. It's a great feeing to be in the single digits and so close to the finish line.

Best regards and thanks to all my IC friends for their kind support.

Terry,

Congrats! You have every right to celebrate and be excited! You earned it and we are more than happy to give you a pat on back! You give me hope. I just finished my AS and have 45 credits to complete my BS at EC and I would like to finish by September if I can, December at the latest. That is my goal and seeing you accomplish this makes me think I can do this too! Thanks for the inspiration!

Motuterry---

You are such a show-off...yes I said it...SHOW-OFF. Nobody's falling for that "I usually don't post my wins" crap. You should be ashamed of yourself. That's right I said it........ASHAMED. So please spare me with the humility routine.

Further...as I've already stated...you should be ashamed of yourself. Why you ask??? Because you've been out here kicking all kinds of *$($*(#)##($* and you haven't been telling us how much #()$*#)#(#(@#*$#^ you've actually been kicking!!!hilarious You should be so damn proud of yourself...I know I am for ya!!!

Congratulations buddy!!! Congrats on passing your DSST and congratulations for planning your work and working your plan. Reading your story has inspired me to get my tail in high gear....I think I've been in first since last June!!!hilarious

WAY 2 FREAKIN' GO!!!

And before I go just remember...next time...you make sure you include us in your butt-kicking ventures! Don't be selfish!!!

Peace be with you always my friend. Much success to you.

From a loyal degree seeker,

Marshall

I was chanting for Terry. I am happy with my 38 when I started this 3 years ago I had 30 done. Since I have lots of other crap on my plate I am slow.

Also see my post about Calculus This one is really slowing me down, it is almost a phobia and really slowing me down.
