I graduated this afternoon, one semester early, with first class honours. It is my biggest achievement yet...particularly since I dropped out of high school 10 years ago.

Thanks everyone for the comments! My degree was a Combined Honours in Religious Studies and International Development Studies. If all goes as planned (still in the application process), I plan on going in the fall for my Masters of Arts in Theology.

I would love to be able to do that, but I don't have the social skills necessary for that sort of position. I want to be a professor someday...sooo I will have to get a PhD too.
