I miss college. The best time of life. Only been gone  since last semester, but I loved it!!!

Good luck.

OT. I studied mechanical engineering. Never got a job for that.



Please excuse my bad English.

I'm finishing Biology here in Mexico at UNAM. Now I want to do a postgrade, whether a Masters or a Doctorate in ecology, but I haven't decided yet.



Went the the Richard Ivey School of Business at the Univeristy of Western Ontario.
My degree was an HBA ( Honours Business Administration) with a double major in Accounting & Financial Economics.

Rutgers, School of Criminal Justice - B.S. (finished)

Fairleigh Dickinson University - M.S. in Homeland Security (currently working on)

Am I tired of it? Well, college is a lot of work (I'll give you that). I do enjoy learning though.



Everyone needs to play Lost Odyssey! Any opposition to this and I will have to just say, "If it's a fight you want, you got it!"

I started off (2yrs) working towards a divinity degree as I intended on going all the way to a Doctorate degree. While this was extremely interesting, I realized that even with all that education, I was highly likely to make $0 ... ever.

Then I moved to a MIS (2yr). This is basically a technology based management degree. While this was a decent financial base, it just wasn't fully interesting as it didn't have enough technology based courses.

Then I settled on the final options. Computer Science (5yrs). This fit exactly what interested me as well as a solid financial future. My minor was in Near Eastern Studies (middle east stuff) with Arabic as my 2nd language. (I barely remember any of it lol)

After a few years in the workforce I have also obtained my MBA in Operations Management (2yrs).

My Bachelors took a long time to get due to wasted classes as well as having to work full time while obtaining it to support myself and afford college. However, it was all worth it as I am now in a comfortable lifestyle and able to provide my children with lives and experiences that my parents were never able to offer. (not that they didn't try or want to) Hell, I make more in a year than they did in two... combined. Not bragging, just shows what higher education and determination can do for you. I am first in my family (mother's or father's) to receive a college diploma and only one to receive a Master's. However, I won't be the last. I will make sure my children as well as nieces and nephews go to college as well.
