Fellow students, I am finally able to say that I just boarded a non-stop flight to "Graduation nation." I paid for my "ticket" with a passing DSST score.
-After chopping on the proverbial degree tree with a small hatchet all of these years it finally fell today.
- I was really nervous going into the test. When I finally pushed the end button and my passing score of 58 came up, I just sat there in shock. For a solid min. I just stared at the screen, mouth agape. Afterward I told all of the staff (whom I've got to know very well) at the testing center and sent out mass text messages to friends. The high fives and constant inbox chimes on my phone was golden. Afterwards I ran into a very close friend on campus and we ate lunch and talked about life. It's been a great day! It feels good, really good!
-Thank you to everyone who has posted in general, and to those of you who have helped me out specifically. I am thankful and very appreciative. Sincerely, THANK YOU!
The best things in life aren't things.
~Brandon
