That portrait screams angsty-coolness and sketchy wonder. I'm happy because of it. Yo D, just wanted to mention that your newish look kicks some serious tail.

Thanks for the encouragement. I guess one of the things that motivates me to keep going is the fact that I made a list of goals 2 years ago, of which included this goal : Get an associates degree. It's a small degree, I understand, but it's a goal nonetheless. I'll decide whether to pursue a BFA afterwards, in which case I'll probably have to come back and read your comment once again. I'm also considering getting a MA in seminary, which means I'd better get used to doing all this work. Thanks again, Chuck. Whew that’s good to hear. Thanks for the encouragement.

I have several regrets from college but the main one concerning actual classes was not giving more. When it comes time to graduate the companies that are recruiting have two things to look at besides your major - GPA and experience. The best offers go to the folks that have the best in both areas. Once you get outside the creame of the crop jobs personality seems to play a bit more into it, but the primo ones won't even consider you without primo in both areas. There are folks that spent just as much time as me sitting in class that came out of school making twice as much as me... which means the time they spend away from home, sitting at a desk like me pays them twice as much. The payoff is worth the 4 years of hard work. Stick it out. I have several regrets from college but the main one concerning actual classes was not giving more.
