I know I've been gone for a while, but I am finally done training. I have been stationed in Korea, and will finally start my job soon. So maybe I'll be around more often! More good news is I can start working on my degree again this summer! :D And it only took a year and a half to get to this point.

Good luck with the degree work. The funny thing about degrees is that the more classes you take, the more you find out you already knew or could have reasoned for yourself. But what that degree does is it provides you with two important things.
1. Potential bosses learn that you like to finish what you start. I cannot tell how important it is for them to know that.
2. You learn that you can do a lot more than you might first have imagined you could do. Not everyone feels that way, but if you had any lack of self-confidence, the degree is a form of self-justification. Not for what you know (though it helps), but for what you can do when you put your mind to it. Very self-actualizing.
