Iâve posted about attending commencement next weekend (canât believe Iâm saying commencement and next week in the same sentence). Iâve started talking about grad school, too. And Iâve even updated my signature line.
But as of today I am officially a college graduate. So this is my official Iâm done post!
I donât have a whole lot to say except thank you all for your encouragement, open minds, brilliant suggestions, and inspiration. I tear up every single time I read someone else's I'm done post and mine feels somewhat anticlimactic. Nevertheless, Iâm really thankful to you all for sharing your experiences about education in general, but especially TESU. For some crazy reason or another, I kept resisting TESU even though their degree programs made so much sense for me. I'm glad I kept reading about it here because even with multiple detours, it turned out to be the best option for me.
If I can give back to anyone, if there is anyone who has questions, please donât hesitate to contact me. Not that Iâm going anywhere because Iâm already on to the next big educational adventure!

Wonderful news. Isn't it weird when it does seem anticlimactic? I wonder why it feels that way?
