I just finished my first semester of graduate school (today) and I think I've ended up with all A's- go me! :woohoo:

:blob1: :blob2:

We all knew you'd kick ass!!! Congrats on your first complete semester!!!

One down..how many more to go?

Thanks! :cool:

You are so ****ing awesome! I'm proud of ya! I just took my final tonight. I'll be glad for a 2 week break.

Congrats...
 

on the good news & good grades :thumbsup:

oh Jannie! how awesome.

that's a major accomplishment. major. :wavey:

Yay! You rawk!

What?! That is so great! :woohoo: Continued success. :xoxo:

Congrats! I dont remember, what are you majoring in?

Congratulations!!!!!!!

Social Work.

Congratulations and way to go! :blob2:

Awesome job!!! :D

Good work Jannie!!

Sasja

Congratulations! And social work is a really interesting and important field:nod:

YAAAYYYY!!! You go girl!!
I finish my internship tomorrow.... and not a moment too soon!
While I did get my ideal internship in a psych hospital, the realities of how those places think and are driven (insurance!) is more depressing than any story a patient told me. I LOVED working with the patients... they were all amazing and all taught me something. But with any corporate environment, the staff stuff made my head want to explode. I can't tell you how many should have been on the "other side of the nurse's station"! :eek:

I'm anxious to see what lies ahead for me!
Speaking of.... I'm very interested in volunteering out my counseling skills to non-profits, etc.
Anyone got any ideas?? I'm amazed at the lack of here in Nashville. I know there is more than an abundance of folks needing help (let alone just someone to talk with) but am coming up empty. :shrug:
Any ideas???

that's awesome, jannie! :thumbsup:

Congrats!! :thumbsup:

Talk about someone who REALLY deserved this!:xoxo: What can I say except that I'm thrilled for you.

Thats impressive. I think my average this semester was a B :eek:. Well, I suppose thats better than last semester when my average was a C+ :laugh:

Well done, Jannie!

Meanwhile, my wife is spitting chips. She got 93% for her thesis and a score of 91% overall - the second highest score ever in her school of studies. She would have won the (ca$h dollar$$) prize for top student, except that the highest score ever was scored by someone in her class (95% thesis and 93% overall).

Last year's top student only scored 83%.

Congrats! :D

oh man. i would be so pissed if i were your wife! that's still an amazing accomplishment, though, whether or not she got the prize. what does she study?

Post-Graduate studies in Archeology.

(Most people's eyes glaze over after I say that, but her specialty is the formation of early Ancient Egypt, around 3,500 BC).

that is very cool. congrats to her!

Thank you.

You know, as a social worker, I am supposed to volunteer some counseling over my career- I haven't thought that far ahead though. I can ask a professor if you'd like and see what they say. Congratulations on finishing your internship! :blob2:
Congratulations to your wife, as well. :thumbsup:

And thanks to everyone else. I am having a huge party Saturday night (wish Ledgies could come- anyone live in North Carolina?). I have invited my entire program (35 people plus spouses/significant others- the RSVP's are up to 60) and professors. Should be quite a bash. :woohoo: :woohoo: :woohoo:
