Exit Speech

Yikes. If we are being judged by how fast we are progressing - I am so screwed.

I am pregnant with baby number 10 due any day.
And we have very limited funds, which are dedicated to mostly 2 things:
Maintaining a decent life now.
Investing in our kids' futures.

I hope to get a degree - some day. But my main goal for the near and dear future? That's my kids. So far, after my time here, they have taken one CLEP. About a month after baby is born, one of them is taking the A&I Lit. By the end of next fall semester, I hope another will have had it and two of them will have also taken astronomy and western civ 2.

If I can afford to take the exam too, that is great. However, sometimes the budget just doesn't stretch to cover me too. If I have to choose between myself taking the tests or my sons, then I wait.

We do what we can, when we can, when we are ready for it.

If others have more money (it is cheaper - not free) or time (it is quicker - not immediate) to devote to this, then yea them.

But to denigrate others for not speeding through at some lightening speed?

Well... My friend, you should ignore the ignoramuses.
